Friday 2nd September - Revolver Upstairs
Nearing their 25th anniversary, ROCK DA CITY crew have been striving since 1987 and lifting their graffiti game to new heights. Prowla, co-designing and developing graffiti based architecture - The Hive. Jors, running Melbourne based hip hop outlet This Is It. Grits, recently winning the Australian Ironlak piece competition and Jase Beathedz, continuing his music production and mixing for the likes of Pegz, Patto, Eloquor, NFA, Dizz1, music for TV shows like Summer Heights High and graff workshops for the next generation of young writers. Both Shem and Jors are currently featured in the worldwide Thames and Hudson graffiti alphabets book titled Streetfonts.
The sky really is the limit, with numerous projects on the go including Shem and Jors latest venture Royal Deviates. Stay tuned for a limited edition book from Jors, Royal Deviates clothing and the mammoth work in progress, the 25th Anniversary hard cover release of Royal Deviates featuring Jors and Shem’s life work to date. Including active crew members, guest affiliates and an accompanying soundtrack.
As crews and generation’s of peers retire or fade away into history, don’t call these writers oldschool. With their technical letter styles, entrenched in New York and Melbourne graffiti tradition these forward thinkers are only getting started.
