This evening of music and conversation is to celebrate the launch of Jeff Lang's first book “Some Memories Never Die” - a memoir of three decades on the road, with reflections on how the road's twists and turns can be lightened by the presence of fellow travellers and occasionally darkened by them too. A limited number of purchasers will be able to attend a special 60 min workshop session with Jeff. Send your ticket to jefflangworkshop@gmail.com with the subject line GRAFTON to register.

However they choose to play, they bring their story and their songbook which stretches to over 40 albums. During the pandemic lockdown - which they experienced in Melbourne - they played over 60 online shows revisited songs from all these albums as well as workshopping new material. They kept their performing, playing and writing skills sharp. Dave Graney humbly adds, “It’s not like those other crumby bands. They are mostly wrong, we are totally right. Word. Comrade. Get Some."

The Ocelots (IRL) are heading back to Australia in early 2020 to play a huge number of shows and festivals all over the country, showcasing a set list of new songs to be released on their album due out March 27th 2020. 

Situated in Wexford Ireland, 22 year old twins Brandon and Ashley combine to create The Ocelots. 

They have crafted their songwriting and musical experience together to produce a forceful blend of rich harmonies and bare, raw acoustic folk. Their music perfectly embodies the breezy effortlessness of early Bob Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel.

The Ocelots have performed all across Ireland, UK and mainland Europe and also toured with acts such as Jack Johnson, Glen Hansard, Hudson Taylor and Isaac Gracie. 

The Ocelots live set combines all that is great about folk music, so come and be charmed by the charismatic duo.

Italian band Santa Taranta present their new album, ‘Sonu – Songs from the Homeland' the Pelican Playhouse in Grafton! We are on tour in QLD and NSW this summer, presenting 'SONU'- a musical journey that celebrates Italian folk music in Australia. Beautiful songs, stories and voices from folk archives come alive in this powerful, emotional and life affirming show. Sounds (Suoni) that travel through space and time. Songs that talk about migration, love and loss, hope and life in a new country. The project ‘Sonu’, is based on selected field recordings archived at the National Library during the past 40 years. Composer and ethnomusicologist Salvatore Rossano has researched these stories and songs, arranging them along with his own new compositions, to create a vibrant experience of Italian Folk music with a fresh twist, revealing the richness of the past and the present of Italian music in Australia.

Join us at The Pelican Playhouse to celebrate the release of Dave Graney & Clare Moore’s new album ONE MILLION YEARS DC.

Dave Graney and Clare Moore - are launching their new album ONE MILLION YEARS DC at the Dust Temple in Currumbin on Saturday 22 November

This is their second album for 2019, coming hot on the smoking wheels of ZIPPA DEEDOO WHAT IS/WAS THAT/THIS? That was a “band” album - a “mistLY” album and this is an album of songs. The focus was on the eleven fantastic songs.

ONE MILLIONS YEARS DC

Pop sounds from the end of the world.
How is it ending for you?

Out as a digital release October 10th

ONE MILLIONS YEARS DC

A vivid, rich and sparkling collection of songs. Reflective, searching and personal.

Starts with a Kinky groover sketching a 21st century populist tyrant who coasts in power on waves of public resentment at those on the lowest rungs of the ladder (He Was A Sore Winner). Sweeps across a sci fi terrain with nods to songs in the sand at the end of the world (Pop Ruins) and nods to the ties that bind in the underground communities (Comrade Of Pop and Where Did All The Freaks Go?).
Songs about intense, long relationships, defunct technology that didn’t answer back, severe social status definition (I’m Not Just Any Nobody), people wandering through your mind as if it was a garage sale, the anxiety of the long running showman (wide open to the elements again) and ends with a song that’s “a little bit Merle Haggard and a little bit Samuel Beckett”.


" Edith Grove! Powys Square! 56 Hope Road! Petrie Terrace!..
The Roxy! The Odeon! Apollo! Palais! Olympia! The Whisky! Detroit Grande!”

Pop Ruins!”
