I went to see Eskimo Joe support Portland OR indie band 'Stars of Track & Field' at Empty Bottle on Saturday night. I am officially an uber fan of these guys, and have been since the beginning. Frankly, they kick arse live, and if you ever get the opportunity to catch them, ensure you do! They work a crowd, be it music festivals and large venues in Australia, or in an intimate venue such as The Annandale (NSW) or Empty Bottle (IL). One word I always use to describe them is faultless. Chatted to Kav on my way out and he was saying they were hoping to be back in Feb/March for a more extensive headlining tour. Good luck in New York tonight, lads!
So here is 'Black Fingernails, Red Wine' live at LIVE EARTH in Sydney, 2007.

Happy 'f'ing' Monday

After a fun day of hanging out with miss Laura last night (and Fred during the afternoon...one day...one day...), I wake this morning to discover...it's Monday! My 'light globe' in my brain still hasn't fired up, and I am still feeling like a vacant vessel. I swear you would be able to hear the sea in my head, or the constant repetition of the 'Dr Who' theme tune by the KLF. Sigh. At least its not 8 degC like it was yesterday. I loathe Monday.
So to cheer me up, the thought that this time next week I will still be waking up in Denver, Colorado where Will & I are heading to visit our Sista, Krista! And here is the latest single from my boys, Eskimo Joe.

Tuesday Tunes : Eskimo Joe's NY

Here is the new Australian single from Eskimo Joe's fab 3rd album 'Black Fingernails, Red Wine'. Stay tuned for a Stateside release of the album in August 2007, as well as a US tour....bring it to Schuba's is what I say! These guys not only rock large gig's but they are sublime in an intimate venue.

'Wake Up'! Its Fav Music Tuesday

Eskimo Joe. Please enjoy 'Wake Up' off their debut album 'Girl'. This song that made me such a HUGE crazed fan. Fun, summery and typically Australian! Great, great pub band who make the transition to much larger venues and festivals with unprecedented ease. Fun lads too!
