Photos: Azealia Banks live in Sydney

New York-based rapper Azealia Banks played a sold-out Splendour side-show to a mesmerised and fervent audience at Sydney’s Metro Theatre on Friday.

Backed by a live drummer, a DJ and a couple of dancers, her set was over in a heartbeat. 45 minutes of bangers, including the likes of Desperado, Liquorice, Chasing Time, No Problems and Yung Rapunxel, were topped off, of course, with the irrepressible and irresistible 212. 

We sent photographer Phil Erbacher along to capture all of the goings-on. Here are a selection of his excellent shots. Click them to enlarge.
