Yuta Matsumura + Itchy Bugger at The Vanguard

Efficient Space presents a long-overdue Sydney performance of Yuta Matsumura’s Red Ribbon at The Vanguard on Saturday 30 May. Also known for work with The Lewers, Th Blisks, Keanu Nelson and a litany of other projects, the lauded solo LP of hypnagogic art rock and crawl-space chamber-pop, Red Ribbon, was released via Low Company in 2022. Matsumura is joined by album collaborators Laurence Quinn, Maeve Parker and Haruka Sato, alongside Matthew Spisbah, to realise this sideways suite live.

Support from fellow Lewer Itchy Bugger. Red-eyed, self-deprecating loner pop driven by drum machine, with two Low Company albums to his name - Done One (2018) and Double Bugger (2019). He agreed to play this show while fishing. Early arrival will be rewarded with D-Grade on the interstitial rituals. 

7:30PM-10:30PM.
