Blast off & rock out with The Cambodian Space Project
If you’re into the 5,6,7,8’S, Bombay Royale and Dengue Fever you HAVE to check out The Cambodian Space Project their show ‘Cosmic Cambodia’ at the Casula Powerhouse next week!
Blast off and rock out with The Cambodian Space Project, on a trip that is simply out of this world, in Cosmic Cambodia: a high energy, sci-fi psychedelic funky rock’n’roll cabaret take on a Phnom Penh karaoke bar.
This extraordinary band has been at the forefront of an astonishing cultural revival in Cambodia, since singer Channthy Kak and musician Julien Poulson teamed up, to sing back to life the lost divas and rock legends of Cambodia’s golden age of music, all but wiped out by the genocidal Khmer Rouge regime.
The Cambodian Space Project sound is definitely for the 21st century, mashing tradition with rock’n’roll, rare groove, soul, and trippy visual spectacle, with reimagined Khmer classics alongside new songs like Not
Easy Rock’n’roll and Have Visa, No Have Rice. Come see why the mix has wowed audiences in bars, rock festivals and theatres across Asia, Europe and Australia, and led to collaborations with the likes of Paul Kelly, Motown legend Denis Coffey, and The Herd MC Ozi Battla (Astronomy Class).
"They’re a great band, the singer is amazing, really beautiful, the guitars really jump out at you, very affecting, great stuff.”
- Nick Cave
