Shit is totally going off over in Adelaide these days, its scene is absolutely pumping – and that’s not just due to SALA festival being on this month!

Speaking of SALA though, Cold Krush will be holding an event this Friday night, playing host to one of our favourite Adeladian crews – MS, or the mainstays. We’ve seen a heap of their work coming out from over the past few years, and couldn’t be happier to see them getting up inside the walls – because they’re going to smash them just as well as they do the ones outside.

“Cold Krush Store/Gallery presents ‘Group Dynamics’. A visual art exhibition forming part of the SALA Festival featuring new works by members of the Adelaide based graffiti crew The Mainstays.

The Mainstays (also known as MS) formed in May, 2007 when like minded members of Nasty Arts and Rock City Funk decided to amalgamate. The crew is not limited to SA and has since recruited an interstate member, Quas from Queensland. While staying true to the core traditions of the movement, MS does not like to be pigeonholed, with this in mind you can expect to see an extremely diverse body of work.

Thanks to Molotow there will be a live graffiti art demonstration during the opening.
There will also be t-shirt giveaways courtesy of Scribe Apparel and two of Adelaides finest Hip Hop practitioners – DJ Snair and Dialect, will be providing the tunes for the evening.”

So fucking good – live art, tunes, and mad shit up on the walls – what more could you possibly want for a Friday night?? Head down tomorrow and see it all for yourself.
