Firstly, wanted to say a big, big thank you to all at The Cygnet Festival, but especially to Jethro & Ursula for the exquisite accommodation and stunning location. Nothing pleased me more than being greeted by a bevy of swans on arrival ... and it’s not often you get to stay in a converted apple packing shed sitting precariously on the Huon River.
Looks like the start of March will be busy ~ a double bill just announced at The Merri Creek Tavern, Northcote with the near-myth behind The Apartments ~ Peter Milton Walsh. His music is of another time: post-punk but also of Burt Bacharach and Scott Walker, Françoise Hardy and Serge Gainsbourg ~ hence his popularity in France. He’s a beautiful songwriter and I’m so looking forward to sharing the stage. There’s limited tickets 🎫 available so be quick ~ I’ll headline Saturday March 7 and PMW Sunday March 8 of the Labour Day long weekend.
Only two Saturdays left at The Union Hotel in Brunswick for this month. Hopefully see you there with my accomplice Shane O’Mara ... free and friendly.
109 Union St, Brunswick 5-7pm.
Jan 18 & 25.
