We’re delighted to announce that THE BLACKEYED SUSANS are playing the MELBOURNE RECITAL CENTRE on FRIDAY, APRIL 20th! How classy and grown-up! And befitting such an occasion, we’re expanding the line-up with a STRING SECTION, plus CLARE MOORE (vibes) and JACK HOWARD (trumpet) will be joining us for the evening. It’s going to be LUSH! What’s more, J.P. SHILO'S sublime instrumental group HUNGRY GHOSTS will be kicking off proceedings with a rare opening set. This is it, folks; The stars have aligned. Your favourite MOODY ROMANTICS playing the best room in Melbourne with STRINGS and a raft of very SPECIAL GUESTS. Reasonably priced too.
Never before staged in Melbourne, SUSANS + STRINGS sold out at the Sydney Festival in 2016. We humbly suggest you DON’T MISS OUT…
This week I’ll be in Sydney singing songs from 16 Lovers Lane at The State Theatre with members of The Go-Betweens and a stellar array of singers ranging from Dave Mason, Peter Milton-Walsh, Romy Vager, Steve Kilbey and more. All part of The Sydney Festival, celebrating a classic Australian album.
Here’s a little snippet from an ancient scrapbook I’ve got tucked away ... nearly thirty five years later. Who would have thought?
I’ll be returning to Sydney for an intimate show at the Django Bar in Marrickville, Saturday March 17 - playing songs from past and present, reading chapters from “Crumbs From The Cake” and taking a request or two ... if there’s anything you’d like to hear, best let me know soon and maybe jot that date down in your diary.
