Next Show? ~ Our next confirmed show is in New York in June (see below), we might sneak in a last minute hometown show before we go if we can get our act together. We've been busy making records! though the hard slog is over and we hope to announce some Australian dates soonish, possibly a launch for the new album, mid-year, unless we decide to launch the Small Batch EP first!
We play some shows at very short notice these days so if you don't want to miss out please sign up for our newsletter (don't forget to let us know which Country and State/Territory/Province etc.. you live in + don't forget to send your address and we'll send you some free fridge magnets!)

And also hope to break new ground in: Austria, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Wales and anywhere else we have the means to visit ~ obviously touring like this will take some coordinating ~ we'd like to go sooner but we have at least three albums to release first! |
In recent years shows have seen some big crowds and good times had by all : check out our gigs archive for a full list or read on for a brief summary ... |

After the release of our extremely well received Trouble seemed so far away CD on the Lamingtone label we undertook a series of shows in many new and less visited places that we collectively referred to as the "Trouble seemed so far away tour".
These included some great fun shows in Katoomba, Melbourne, then a packed to the rafters hooting big set back in Sydney at the Hotel Hollywood, Wollongong, then back to The Annandale (in Syd) followed by another huge turnout at the Warren View
We also played at the Peace Picnic in Enmore park - a fine afternoon was had by all + close to $2000 was raised for the Walk Against the War Coalition
We played the Warren View again (again a great turnout despite the dreary weather) this time we got to play three sets! and were overjoyed to see so many dancers!
In May we played a rugged but occasionally beautiful & sometimes silly show in a cellar under The Alliance Hotel in Brisbane then pulled off three excellent + enjoyable sets (3 x 45 minutes a record for us!) at The Great Northern in Byron Bay, thanks to Angel Red + Neil & Rom for getting us there + thanks yet again to the dancers
On the 20th of May we recorded a 20 minute live set for national radio station triple J which was broadcast the following night ~ Next show was a very enjoyable return to Brisbane where we played at Rics bar which was a great venue to play + a huge Sunday night crowd only to be eclipsed on the 18th July when we were back at The Warren View for a pretty much full house !
The week prior to Japan we played the Uni of NSW Expo here in Sydney which was a fun day out see NEWS page for a run down
At the end of September 2003 we returned from a headline tour of Japan which was pretty unbelievable ~ see the tour diary ~ the night we returned we also played a show in Sydney which due to jet lag is a bit of a blur
Since then we played with Christine Anu and The Stiff Gins in Redfern Park then drew the biggest crowd the publican had seen ! at The Warren View the following Friday and had a lovely afternoon playing a fundraiser for Laurel Tree House daycare centre
Our last show for 2003 was at The famous Taxi Club in Sydney the bands were hot and the disco happening ~ hopefully we'll do it again sometime
During 2004/07 we played a heap of memorable shows including Little Day Out II & III, IV & V!, the Rosnay Woolfest, the Roxfam fundraiser and a heap of others in Sydney and Melbourne & Japan! (see History or gigs archive for details)
In May & June 2008 we returned to the US for the first time in ages, visiting Florida for the first time + had the honour of playing in Mexico for the first of what we hope will be many visits.
