Presented by Melbourne Recital Centre in arrangement with Top Shelf Productions

The world’s greatest cult band return.

Hailed as the ‘greatest trio on earth’ by The New York Times, The Necks are one of the most revered cult bands of our time. Known for their hypnotic live performances and sprawling, improvisational works that slowly unravel, shift, and metamorphose—no two shows are ever the same. More than 30 years into their career, The Necks continue to surprise with their unique mix of experimental jazz and meditative minimalism.

The Necks album Bleed explores a sublime language of stillness. With a single, 42-minute composition, the trio masterfully express the unspeakable beauty of decay and space in yet another distinct entry in their vast and stunning body of work. With a prolific career spanning film and theatre, The Necks have released 22 albums to outstanding critical acclaim and have collaborated with artists including Brian Eno, Underworld, Swans, and many more.
