Australian psychedelic outfit Pond is no stranger to the stage, but as their music has morphed and shifted over the years so too has their presence as a live band. Guitarist and lead vocalist Nick Allbrook once seemed to hide his weirdness inside the band

It shouldn't seem easy for a band to stay so mercilessly vital as Pond are nine records into their career.

COVID may have killed international tours for the time being, but luckily for us Pond is a homegrown export that we get to keep for ourselves for the time being. The internationally beloved psych-cum-arena rockers played an emotive set at Freo.Social on Saturday night that could well have been played to thousands.
