The Offtopics at Oussou

The Offtopics are back to rock Oussou.  Two delicious sets of fonky originals so we advise you to take your chance to dance.

This is our second gig at Bar Oussou this year as they trial a new curatorial approach to music.  Naturally we want to see them do well so we’ll be trying extra hard to put some junk in our funk so you better take the chance to dance!

You don’t have to take our word for it. Just ask your friendly neighborhood Spidey-butt.

Of course if you can’t make it to Oussou this Friday then here’s a dance party you can have at home courtesy of the good students of the “Humor and Code” Class at the Parsons School of Design and Technology.  Enjoy! http://gifdanceparty.giphy.com/

Entry is free this Friday.  Can’t do any better than that!

The Offtopics are back to fonk The Catfish

In the worlds before this Friday… Primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order.
But the Phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown.
The four worlds formed again and yet again,
As endless aeons wheeled and passed… Hang on… enough Monkey business.

*Ahem*

All is well fonksters because The Offtopics are playing again this Friday at your favourite craft beer and sandwich haunt on Gertrude Street.

That’s right – we’ll brook no timewasting!  There’s so much to do.  There are two whole sets of funky songs to get through before the night is over.  It’ll also be our last gig before we start doing some extended studio time prepping for our first ever album.  We’re really excited about this as *cue drum roll* we’ll be working with Nick Herrera who has previously recorded bands such as Hiatus Kaiyote and some other bands who you’ve probably never heard of.

Anyway – it’ll definitely be worth joining the conga line at the gig this Friday as we’ll be kicking out all sorts of jams.

There’s also a facebook event if that sort of thing floats your floating thing.

 

 

The Offtopics get their Yah Yah’s out on Saturday 19 September

The Offtopics and Red Eagle at Yah Yah’s

Those clown princes of fonk, The Offtopics, are co-headlining an epic night of sizzling soul and swampy blues at Yah Yah’s on Saturday 19th September.  The night starts at 8pm with a trio of soul from That Gold Street Sound and Funk Rabbit with The Offtopics at 9pm in a trend-bucking early headliner.  Red Eagle are launching their forthcoming vinyl extravaganza that evening so after a solid dose of funkiness get ready for some deep water Warnambool blues.  They’ll be supported by Crossfire Hurricane.

This line-up is all killer and no filler so think about getting in when the doors open at 7pm.  There are good odds that this show is going to sell out!
