So we’re pretty busy. We’re writing tons of songs, demoing them and getting them really bang on. We’re also playing a lot, which feels good, and keeps it a little bit real. things can get kinda weird if you don’t play gigs for too long.
Some excellent stuff coming up anyway, check it out:
Lou Reed tribute show
One chord is fine. Two chords are pushing it. Three chords and you’re into jazz – Lou Reed
We are honoured to have been invited to play a Lou Reed tribute gig, with all the proceeds going to charity. We will try our best to play our 3-4 Lou songs as well as we can!

Bandito Folk @ Black Bear Lodge
BANDITO FOLK sets more than fire…
We’re playing the same night at The Black Bear with Bandito Folk..
On the back of some rather warm reception to their performances during the past few weeks with Dan Sultan and The Gin Club BANDITO FOLK grab the cashbox and run through the flames to stir up some more musical trouble. Up next for the bandits is another headline at Blackbear Lodge mid-April and their first trek to Toowoomba in early May… along with the release of a new video for third track on the The Embankment EP – INTO THE FIRE.
The Brisbane show will be complemented by special guests WE ALL WANT TO along with OLD PINES.
Sunday April 13th / 8.00 pm
Black Bear Lodge – Brunswick St Mall, Fortitude Valley.

WE ARE SCIENTISTS
TWO “WE” bands on the same bill, spooky!
Indie rock roars from speakers and stereos worldwide incorporating thoughtful, thunderously epic elements but most importantly, infectious fizzes of sonic intimacy which make you want to stand up from your seat and dance like crazy. There is no mistaking the origin of this eargasmic delight. New York-based legends We Are Scientists are set to head to Australia for a series of shows which are guaranteed to put a smile on every punters face and shake the roof off venues across the country. This is a band guaranteed to blast out “indie dancefloor hits so supersonic that Richard Branson is trying to sell passenger tickets into space on them.” (NME)
Thursday 29th May
The Zoo – Ann St, Fortitude Valley.
