M. WARD & THE UNDERTAKERS

w/ special guests FOLK BITCH TRIO

Doors 8pm Show 8.30pm

They’re back! Following on from a hugely successful Australian tour earlier this year, M. WARD & THE UNDERTAKERS return to continue the 20th anniversary celebrations of the critically acclaimed album Transfiguration of Vincent. This time taking his music to all the spaces and places that missed out back in February. And they’re taking FOLK BITCH TRIO along for the ride. Hailing from Portland, Oregon, prolific singer-songwriter and guitarist M. WARD is known to many, whether this is through his mesmerising folky/bluesy Transfiguration of Vincent released back in 2003 or his collaboration with Zooey Deschanel in She and Him, or perhaps as a member of indie supergroup Monsters of Folk? Either way, M. WARD is a great musician, and we can’t wait to have him and the mighty Undertakers back with us this summer.

SNARSKICIRCUSLINDYBAND

Doors Open 7pm, Show 7.30pm

A lot has happened since Lindy Morrison [Go-Betweens] vowed never to see Rob Snarski [Blackeyed Susans] perform solo again. Morrison approached the singer-songwriter post show - having attended a liquid lunch and feeling a tad vulnerable - she berated him for embracing sadness and lacking up-tempo, finger-snapping, melodic numbers. En garde!! Not long after this altercation, the two began performing around the country in duo mode - before roping in ‘Evil’ Graham Lee [Triffids/pedal steel], Shane O’Mara [Rebecca’s Empire/Chris Wilson/Silversound] and lastly Dan Kelly [musical savant and nephew of Paul] to form ‘soooopergroup’ SnarskiCircusLindyBand!! In 2023 the band released their debut mini album “Someone Said That Someone Said” including the tracks “Shane O’Mara Wore Mascara” and “Since I Slept With You Everybody Wants To Sleep With Me”, gaining public radio support and a featured review in UK’s MOJO Magazine, as well as sell-out shows for it’s launch across the country. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, they’ll argue. Not for the faint-hearted but for the romantics, the readers, the writers, the displaced, the misfits, the fanatical, the lovers and the lost. Be there.
