Mark Seymour & The Undertow

Mark Seymour & The Undertow

Mark Seymour formed Hunters and Collectors in 1980, with a bunch of Uni friends.  The band became famous for its rhythmic power and very quickly became touted as the “next big thing”.  The Album “Human Frailty“ was recorded in Melbourne in 1985. 

This record has proven to be one of the most important and enduring records of the eighties and Hunters and Collectors were still playing a large part of this cut in 1998 when they retired.  With “Human Frailty“ Mark discovered, love, loss, and pop melody.  His solo records are directly connected to this era and bear the same stamp of raw honesty and emotional power.

As a solo artist, Mark continues to search for the emotional truth in a song. His strength as a performer remains undiminished despite the ever-present shadow of the band he used to be in. 

As well as 13 Hunters & Collectors albums, Mark has released seven solo albums and three with his current band, The Undertow.  Throughout it all, he has shown he is one of our finest songwriters, capturing our stories of love, loss, human courage and achievement.

Mark is currently putting the finishing touches to his new album “The Boxer” which will be released in the first quarter of 2024.

1927 and Boom Crash Opera - The ‘Best Things Tour

1927 and Boom Crash Opera - The ‘Best Things Tour

RSVP ON FACEBOOK

In the late Eighties, 1927 and Boom Crash Opera owned the airwaves; and in some respect still do today. So naturally this double up was inevitable.

From ARIA awards, platinum albums and Top 40 Hits, Boom Crash Opera and 1927 have them all. The ‘Best Things Tour’ will deliver a night to remember.
 
About Boom Crash Opera:
These here are crazy times. But Boom Crash Opera are one band you can rely upon.
The producer of their debut album told them: “The most important thing a group can do is stay together. Keep it together and you can do anything you want.” 
Boom Crash Opera took those words to heart, proudly becoming one of Australia’s most-loved bands, with 13 Top 50 singles and five Top 50 albums.
As founding member Peter Farnan says, “We sounded like our name.” It’s an intoxicating mix of indie pop and stadium rock, with unforgettable hits such as
‘Great Wall’, ‘Hands Up In The Air’, ‘City Flat’, ‘Onion Skin’ ‘Get Out Of The House’, ‘The Best Thing’ and ‘Dancing In The Storm’. 
Nearly four decades after the band began, the start of ‘Onion Skin’ remains an irresistible rallying cry:
Keep it in! Cut it out! Kick it out!
 
About 1927:
Know for enduring hits such as ‘That’s When I Think of You’, ‘Compulsory Hero’, ‘To Love Me’, ‘Scars’, ‘Don’t Forget Me’, and of course, ‘If I Could’, 1927 made a devastating entry into the ears of its listeners with quintuple Platinum ‘…Ish’ in 1988, which earned the band a number of ARIA awards as well as a lot of fans along the way.
Having followed up ‘…Ish’ with the multi platinum second album ‘The Otherside’, a self-titled third album, and countless live shows at home and abroad, the last couple of decades have earned 1927 legendary status

STAVROZ & TIJUANA CARTEL

STAVROZ - Live (Belgium)

Hailing from the land of compromise in the heart of Europe, the four friends of Stavroz found each other in the east of Flanders. In its inception, IJsbrand De Wilde & Gert Beazar focussed mainly on playing DJ sets and creating music in which they loved colliding worlds. Only a few years later they hooked up with Maxim Helincks & Pieter De Meester to expand their DJ activities to a performing band and continued to try and find an unbeaten path in electronic music. This culminated in their delicately acoustic, organic and cinematic approach to electronic music. As a result they were awarded second place for “best producer” and “best breakthrough artist” in national awards for Belgium’s electronic scene.

Tijuana Cartel, the renowned Australian musical collective celebrated for their pioneering fusion of diverse genres, proudly presents their latest masterpiece, Alectura. This innovative album once again showcases the band’s expertise in blending organic house and melodic house with captivating rhythms, beats, and global influences.

Having graced some of Australia's largest stages, Tijuana Cartel has curated an east-meets-west wonderland for audiences in search of sensory stimulation, euphoria, and the driving force of fat beats and bass-fuelled electronica. Their sound embodies high-energy, guitar-driven world music, appealing to indie, electronic, and roots music fans alike.
