The crowd welcomed the delay and reverb-soaked vocals of Nick Allbrook with sweaty enthusiasm. POND used the full extent of their broad catalogue, cheerily bouncing between old songs and new.

Cameron Avery Announces 'C’est Toi' Fremantle Show
After moving to LA and signing with US ANTI Records (Wilco, Tom Waits), Perth-bred artist Cameron Avery (The Growl, Allbrook/Avery, Tame Impala) has announced a small set of Australian shows
Perth Arena feat. Queens of the Stone Age, Nine Inch Nails, Pharrel Williams, The Rolling Stones, the Arctic Monkeys and POND
Lots of stuff happening at our new venue, neatly summarized here, for your health.
PIAF - Spinning Top Presents (POND, AAA Aardvark Getdown Services, Felicity Groom and The Silents) - 23/02/14
Well, if you don’t know what/who/why Spinning Top is then I feel you have been failed by yourself. This little (but probably now larger) Fremantle based label has been quietly building a roster enviable by larger lamer labels.
POND with Doctopus @ Metropolis Fremantle
POND, as a live animal, give a lot to the audience. When frontman Nick Allbrook isn’t wide-armed screaming to the crowd he is throwing himself around, writhing on the floor in the sweat dripping from his oh-so-Fremantle flanno.
Pond - 'Hobo Rocket'
At only 34 minutes long, you’d probably be thinking you’ve been swindled something a la Keyser Soze, but what you’re getting is 34 minutes of pure good music; which is probably what you’d get on a normal 50-60 minute record anyway. The music is real, and the album is a real gem.
The Growl - What Would Christ Do?? Album Release @ The Bakery, Perth
You know a band is unique when the first thing you notice isn’t the two drummers on stage, or the fact that one of the toms was in fact a garbage bin, but the double bass.
Music for your Mid-Week
We've got a heap of new tracks from City and Colour, Drake, The Dillinger Escape plan, as well as getting some of The Doors in you
