Presented by Propel Youth Arts WA and PICA as part of the Youth Week WA KickstART Festival.
What if live music gigs happened in cosy tea parlours rather than bars?
Come and relax with friends, family, music and tea. For one afternoon we’re transforming PICA into a cosy teahouse, showcasing our favourite musicians from around Perth and our favourite teas from around the Earth. Bring a mug, bring a mate, and share some tea and symphony with us.

Either way, they’ve never been seen before and will never be seen again – a one-night-band exclusive to the 2021 Kickstart Festival. Their secret identities may include Yanni Goldberg and Darren Grant Halstead. Or not. You’ll have to find out for yourself.
