Acopia

22 October 2025

Acopia is a band from Naarm/Melbourne, formed in 2018 by Kate Durman, Lachlan McGeehan, and Morgan Wright. Working with restraint and atmosphere, their music unfolds slowly and deliberately, guided by instinct and emotion. Their debut album Chances was released in 2022 on Melbourne imprint Companion, followed by a self-titled, self-released LP in 2023. Since then, they’ve sold out headline shows across the UK, Europe, and Australia, performed at festivals including Wide Awake (UK), Les Nuits Botanique (BE), and Golden Plains (AUS), and shared the stage with artists such as Bar Italia, Tirzah, and Raisa K. Their third album, Blush Response, is out September 2025 via London label Scenic Route.

Opening DJ

Paramat

Paramat is a DJ and co-founder of ‘General Merchant’, an Eora-based label and event series that has become a regular fixture in the city’s underground scene. Known for his thoughtful selections and sharp mixing, he’s steadily built a reputation for sets that are both considered and unpredictable.

Paramat’s sets often move between genres, tempos and moods—layering sounds in a way that keeps things interesting without over-complicating. He’s less about trends and more about keeping things fresh, with an ear tuned to surprise and subtle tension.

He co-hosts Limbs Akimbo on fbi.radio with a group of like-minded selectors (Cousin, Anusha, Hugh, and Ivy), presenting a wide-ranging mix of music that leans more toward depth than hype.

Paramat will perform from doors at 6.30pm.

  • If you are successful you will receive an email up to ten days prior to the performance with instructions on how to claim your tickets.
