Radio Airplay – Live!

That was fun on Tuesday speaking to Jason Chong filling in for Sonya Feldhoff on 891 ABC Radio Adelaide.

Live ramblings and a new song performed without a safety net: “Jump, Jump, Jump!”

You can hear the replay here:

It was a great opportunity to promote the Port Noarlunga Blues Festival this weekend – and you can hear the excitement in our voices opening the show on Friday night at 7 pm at Porties – The Port Noarlunga Surf Lifesaving Club followed by Oscar Ladell and The Night Owls and The Sexy Boys.

There’re so many acts it defies description – you have to look at the program on the PNBF website here. Most of them are free and they’re all indoors in one of the eighteen venues around Port Noarlunga.

The big nighttime shows are ticketed and are in one of the four major venues being used for the festival. Tickets are available here.

Chris Finnen is this year’s Festival curator and he’s done an amazing job and is playing in three of the acts on the program – and possibly he’ll make even more appearances.

We’d love there to be a great turnout and we are looking forward to playing some of our hottest original tracks and starting a red hot night on Friday.

For a taste of what we’re going to do we just played at The Semaphore Worker’s Club on Sunday afternoon last weekend and the unvarnished recording of our three set extravaganza is here on Bandcamp.

Gigs, gigs and more gigs

Hello Folks. We have some gigs to announce.

It was touch and go, what with Dave Sly breaking a hand he needed to play the drums but he will be present in all his fractured and fractious glory.

Keeping the drum stool warm will be the highly renowned drummer Tom Stehlik – these are definitely gigs not to be missed as we have put together our grooviest, most danceable songs into a three hour setlist that will challenge and excite us all.

The first gig is a civilised Sunday afternoon at our favouritest venue ever. So put it in your diary now…

Sunday 19th November The Semaphore Workers Club 5 pm – 8 pm.

Next is the Port Noarlunga Blues Festival. Ticketed and highly popular so if you’d like a great night out we open for Oscar LaDell and the Night Owls and The Sexy Boys Blues Band

Friday 24th November 7 pm – 11 pm Port Noarlunga Surf Life Saving Club. Tickets available here

We’ll also be on 891 ABC Radio Adelaide on Tuesday 21st November at 2:30 playing a new song and talking with the inimitable Sonya Feldhoff.

So November is The TinMen month. See you there!
