L
awn is the exciting dance theatre production returning to
the Brisbane Powerhouse following tours of Europe at the
Sophiensaela in Berlin and the Sydney, Perth and Singapore
Festivals. The production is a highly visual dance-theatre piece
that explores ideas through music, design, drama ­ and of course,
movement. lawn takes place in a small one-room apartment high
above the snow covered streets of Berlin. A man is dreaming of
the open lawns of his childhood, but beneath the wallpaper are the
shadows of former tenants. Lawn is a truly exciting and ground
breaking piece of dance theatre reaching new levels of physicality
while delivering in just over an hour a haunting tale of isolation
and the desire for wide open spaces.

White Lies
To Lose My Life
White Lies' songs are full of all the dark 80s drama and
big, room-filling vocals bands like The Killers might play
up to ­ but thankfully lacking the affected glitz or Duran
Duran that might ordinarily entail, replaced instead with
captivating lyrics and a refreshing depth of perspective.
Writer of the band's striking lyrics, Charles is a fresh,
invigorating and slightly deviant new storyteller entering
an indie landscape. Released March
Morrissey
Years of Refusal
Years of Refusal was completed earlier this year in LA
with the late Jerry Finn, producer of Morrissey's
acclaimed 2004 UK No.2 album You Are The Quarry.
Morrissey describes the new album as his strongest
work to date. The 12-track album includes a clutch of
new songs played live in recent months including `I'm
Throwing My Arms Around Paris' and `One Day
Goodbye Will Be Farewell'. Released February 14th
Chris Cornell
Scream
You may know Chris Cornell as the wailing voice
behind the bands Soundgarden and Audioslave. He
has chosen Timbaland to helm his new album, who
makes inventive use of Cornell's dramatic melodies,
setting his intense vocal performances to dense layers
of crafty samples. The result is a seamless blend of
edgy rock and seductive dance music that feels like a
truly modern reinvention for Cornell. March release.
