About

JACKET OFF leaves nothing to the imagination and everything to the dance floor as this finely tuned beat-smacking machine leaves groovers shaking involuntarily in their boots. Founded by stylistic polar-bare opposites DJ CB Field and DJ/MC Many Feather, these boys lay down the night’s tracks for saxophone wielding, dirty blues fiend Baron Von Thunderwick and percussion wrenching Toby Bender to overlay his premium live kicks ‘n’ licks.

Enter, the magic dynamic strutted on stage by four super-sexy rotating female-feline-freaks. It ain’t no party surprise as these divas have bounced almost every Melbourne dance floor; club/bar/pub between them. The collective’s blades have been kept supremely sharpened with a non-stop three-year residency slicing the dice EVERY Saturday night in St Kilda’s parlour of sonic splendour … Veludo on Acland Street.

If Electronic Beats, Live Instru-Mentals, Maestro MC-ing, Vixon Vocals, Visual Arts, Dance, Audio Effects, Mash-up or Crowd Interaction tickle your taste, get on the phone and book for any occasion. Be it Gig, Corporate ta-Do, Private Party or Festival, this crew has covered all ground and will exceed expectations with cutting-edge and cutting-precision. Jacket Off is dedicated to making any spectator hot under the collar.

Veludo General Manager

Two words – Crowd Pleaser. On a wintery night in 2006, Veludo saw the birth of our new and improved Saturday nights - introducing Jacket Off. Over the past 3 years Jacket Off has rocked our stage every Saturday night with their electric, energising show that has never disappointed. Week after week they provide a show with huge energy, awesome tunes and musicianship. Crowds enjoy such craziness from the guys including band members standing on the bar belting out tunes to an audience going nuts! Features of the performance include everything from VJ light shows to professional dancers and featuring some of Melbourne's best female vocalists.

We as a venue have built a fantastic reputation for our Saturday nights due to the atmosphere and consistency created by the Jacket Off crew. Consistency that extends through their professional approach, marketing and promotion.

We look forward to a continually solid relationship with Jacket Off.

Last December we saw Jacket Off play at Veludo in St Kilda. We loved you guys and asked for a biz card to play at our wedding if ever we got engaged. Well....... 12 months later we are now engaged! My fiance kept your card in his wallet all this time. We were sooooo impressed that there were more blokes dancing on the packed out dance floor than there were chicks!! Yay!!
