- The Chicagoan will play dates in Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney next month.
- US disco artist Rahaan Young, best known as just Rahaan, will be touring Australia in March. Rahaan has long been one of Chicago's most popular underground DJs, having spent the past two decades spinning at some of the city's most prevalent house and disco nights. Since his arrival in the late '80s, his international profile has grown significantly, with regular treks over to Europe for headlining slots throughout the year. Aside from his trademark brand of classic disco, Rahaan is also well known for steady edit output, often channelling boogie and funk, which has seen his reworks end up on labels like StillLove4Music and KA with efforts that usually pop up in his DJ sets. Rahaan's first Australian date will be at Melbourne's Croft Institute on March 19th. From there, he'll head across to Adelaide for a gig at Adelaide, after which he'll stop into People Must Jam's warehouse party for a four-hour set. Tickets to the Sydney leg are available from RA Tickets.
