Braden Evans (6-9pm) + Reckless (10pm-1am)

Sydney singer songwriter Braden Evans would often raid his father’s record collection and make mix tapes of The Beatles as a child. This early passion for The Beatles spawned not only his love for music but also his pop sensibilities. Then influences like Jeff Buckley and Ryan Adams helped him shape his raw emotive voice and effortlessly smooth guitar that we hear today. Reckless are locals’ favourites here at the Orient: incorporating audience participation with a modern choice of songs as well as the classics including requests. Their repertoire is upbeat and diverse ranging in many styles from rock to pop, dance and country which enables them to entertain a wide range of audiences.
