Kim Gordon – The Collective
Open Frame’s 2024 iteration is headlined by music icon and Sonic Youth alum, Kim Gordon, who will be performing her new album The Collective, for one night only at Brisbane Powerhouse.
A tour de force, Kim Gordon is an artist without comparison. The cultural provocateur, post-punk paragon and rock-music matriarch set the stage for a generation of female-led music after bursting onto the scene with band Sonic Youth. In her latest release, Gordon reframes her work in a way that both resolves her legacy and opens an entirely new chapter. A collision of pop, guitar noise, electronics and steering, breathy vocal meditations, The Collective is a timely, powerful and evocative addition. Presented live at Brisbane Powerhouse for the first time with her band, the show will mark a massively engrossing and arguably career-defining work that is resolutely for, and of, the moment we find ourselves in.
