Julian WrightEastern Reporter

A COUPLE of rock ‘n’ roll-loving ladies are back at Fringe World Festival this year to help uncover Perth’s forgotten history of the music genre with A Hidden Music Tour of Perth.

Hidden deTours director Monique Boucher and singer-songwriter Randa Khamis from Randa And The Soul Kingdom have uncovered little-known facts about Perth’s old rock ’n’ roll hot spots and forgotten and long-gone venues, where music was embraced and scandals unfolded.

Discover which fashion stores now stand where a grand theatre once hosted lavish concerts and where musical legends hung out and enjoyed the top tunes of the times in the 1950s.
