Thursday night I saw a band that I think will quickly become my favourite new Australian band. Light Giant have risen from the ashes of the recently no more Parades. Parades were such a great band, even with only one EP and one LP. Light Giant create similar music but perhaps it's even more epic. Three guitars and drums combine to produce generous sound scapes of beauty and drama. They were part of The Gate's latest event, held in the Anglican Church on York St. These events are great. Superb music in unique situations. I can thoroughly recommend checking out The Gate AND Light Giant in the future!
