On 17 October 2025, TBRN held PR_01, the first of the PR_Series ("PR" standing for Project). PR_01 was a live multi-disciplinary album exhibition showcasing Aurpan Kar's latest album, UR OVERTHINKING THE CONCEPT.

The night was a glimpse into the world of Canberra creativity, with live art by Amiee Nonas, otherwise known as Amiee Paints, and opening acts from Mani Zuko and Mixed Signals, an RnB singer-songwriter and a DJ duo. During the main performance, Zach Parnell helped create a one-time-only listening.

Every part of the show was designed with the future of TBRN in mind, from the creative direction and general vibe down to the DJ tables, made specifically for the night and now a visual staple at TBRN endorsed events.

PR_01 was a moment for Canberra, and TBRN's formal introduction to the creative scene as a major player.
