Eulogy for the Dyke Bar
Dykes on Mics Karaoke with Salote Tawale

Led by artist and karaoke enthusiast Salote Tawale, ‘Dykes on Mics’ was a night for singing and laughter, stocked with all the hottest dyke anthems, from 80s rock ballads, to 4 Non Blondes, Missy Higgins, Kim Petras and more.

Open to seasoned performers as well as those who only sing in the shower, the karaoke night offered an opportunity toconnect with the dyke community in an inclusive and fun way.

Salote Tawale works across performance, moving image, painting and installation to probe ideas of self-representation. Humorously challenging stereotypes, Salote presents nuanced articulations of the complex negotiations around identity as a queer Fijian woman with settler-colonial heritage living in Australia.
