FINAL X SHOW AT THE ESPY

Arriving ultra early to the Norfolk Basement, I was greeted with the type of warm ambience that is typical of ‘The Basement;’ dimly lit and abuzz with the chatter from the equally early punters that were slowly trickling down the stairs.

This week we bring you another big tour announcement with Dig It Up!, Sam Sparro, Dirty Three, Boris and The Sheepdogs all announcing some big tour news!

Dig It Up! Brisbane and Perth sell out

The Perth leg of Dig It Up! The Hoodoo Gurus Invitational has now sold-out. The Perth event which also features Redd Kross & The Fleshtones, joins the Brisbane Dig It Up! in selling out its allocation well in advance of the show date.

Perth artist Felicity Groom launched her debut album Gossamer at The Bakery. Supporting her were Nick Allbrook, Rabbit Island and Joe McKee. Stuart Sevastos brings us photos from the night.
