Clayton and Mike are excited about another Elizabeth Moss performance, and rightly so. The Square portrays when personal and professional turmoil strikes as an art curator sets out on a new endeavour and Claytons reckons it's worth a watch if you're in the ~art~ world.
Frances Chan highlights her favourite acts from a busy month of live gigs, including Jeff Mills, Love Square and Son Rompe Pera, plus new releases from Yussef Dayes, Monty Alexander and Allysha Joy, and a smooooth jazz falsetto interlude.
