JEFF LANG Jeff Lang is one Melbourne's roots music heroes, his solo recording
career began in 1994 and his latest album Carried in Mind is
his 14th release as a solo artist. Over the years he has honed his
art, his songwriting, his licks, his production nous and his performance
craft until these days he can go with the best of them. And like all
good artists he just keeps getting better. He's a fabulous role model
for young artists, an example of how hard work and dedication can
in the end bring that elusive 'over night success'
In recent years he has toured consistantly playing big international
festivals backed up his long term top class rhythm section of Grant
Cummerford on double bass and Danny McKenna on drums. On
his most recent tour and on his album Carried in Mind he has
also enlisted the charismatic and sweetest of pedal steel players
Garrett Costigan, together they will entertain in the most
magnificent way, back in old Brunswick town for this special one off
show.
SPOONFUL
Spoonful are another of Melbourne's finest roots, soul and blues specialists.
If you've frequented one of Melbourne's live music venues over the
last decade, there is a good chance that you would have witnessed
Spoonful in full flight. You may have danced with them in late night
party mode, or recovered with them on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Their
reputation as a live band means that punters always expect a highly
charged performance and they always get it. Well known in the Brunswick
area, when the Spoonful are up, there's fire in the belly. Their show
captures Spoonfuls love of the body moving, vocally tense stylings
of Soul, the insistent beats of electric Rhythm and Blues and the
good time shenanigans of Rock and Roll. And it's always a lot of fun.
