Seymour Nights @ Sydney Festival – Jack Shit

Seymour Centre's contemporary music program, Seymour Nights, returns in January 2023 for Sydney Festival.

Offering free gigs at dusk in the Seymour courtyard and coinciding with four brilliant Sydney Festival events, Seymour Nights @ Sydney Festival will champion local artists and new sounds, featuring performances by Montgomery Church, The Dollar Bin Darlings, Elana Stone and more. 

With an outdoor bar, vintage games, and delicious food truck fare, join us for a night of live music from some of Australia’s most vibrant voices and ensembles, all in the leafy, summery surrounds of the Seymour courtyard.

DJ Jack Shit's collection spans all eras and genres of recorded music, with digital files, CDs, vinyl and even shellac getting a spin. He possesses the world’s only three-armed, hand-made, dual turntable on which to play his hundreds of classic 78s.

A year or so ago he was selected to go head-to-head with our new Prime Minister, DJ Albo, for the launch of the Community Cup. It's fair to say both blokes bonded over their shared love for the work of lesser-known local luminaries on wax.

For most of the past decade back home, Jack has been a main-stage mainstay at Falls Festival in Marion Bay, Tasmania, often playing up to and across the midnight hour on New Years Eve. A few years ago he became the first FBi Radio DJ to be accorded the great honour of spinning stunning sounds at the iconic Golden Plains Festival in Victoria.
