LA-based surrealist blues poet aja monet performs a special set in the Triple R Performance Space, on Wednesday 21 October, hosted by Shambe Olweny-Pu of Opium Audia.

In town for a show at the Melbourne International Jazz Fest, aja monet will perform songs from her 2026 breakout album, the colour of rain, accompanied by her outstanding US-based backing trio.

the color of rain is a compositional tour-de-force of poetry, emotion, and resonance and shifts seamlessly between jazz, soul, hip hop and rhythm and blues.

Triple R subscribers and First Nations people, can head to Subscriber Giveaways to attend. Giveaways open Wednesday 14 October.

ACCESS: If you extra access needs, please don't hesitate to contact the station at reception@rrr.org.au before the event.

For those unable to attend, you can still tune in to the performance on Friday 23 October during Live at RRR via FM, digital, online or with the Triple R app.
