FREE POP-UP GIG: INKABEE + JJ VACANT @ Vancouver Arts Centre

Two of Australia’s fastest-rising young hip-hop artists are taking over the Vancouver Arts Centre for one very special free, all-ages pop-up gig.
At just 14, Boorloo artist INKABEE is already making serious waves. The Noongar Wongi rapper and R&B artist became the youngest performer ever featured on triple j’s Like A Version, has clocked more than 10 million views for his viral Bars of Steel performance, appeared on America’s Got Talent and performed at SXSW in Sydney and Austin.
Joining him is JJ Vacant, a rising Noongar, Wongi and Pitjantjatjara hip-hop artist known for his rapid-fire flow, sharp lyricism and huge live energy. His debut single No Warning, featuring INKABEE, received triple j airplay, and he has already performed at Vivid Sydney at the Sydney Opera House, Fremantle Arts Centre and alongside some of Australia’s leading hip-hop artists.
Their Live @ the Town Hall appearance the following night is 18+ and already sold out, so this is the only chance for younger fans to catch them while they’re in Albany.
Capacity is limited and entry is first come, first served – get there early and bring your mates!
