Exciting Australian songs propelled by
energetic jazz-like woodchop rhythm! Add some strong local lyric,
with gang vocal delivery
and their unique sound is complete.
The Band Who Knew Too Much
are a bona-fide foolproof floor-packing
band. For over a decade they have branded their sound around
the world; a highly energetic act that is at home singing on
the festival
stage, busking unplugged on the city streets, or anything inbetween!
Washboard/Accordion
driven anthems about spending the rent, hard rubbish nights and
of course, the immortal BEER O’CLOCK!!
It's happy hour, energetic party music for everyone.
The Band
Who Knew Too Much embrace the brattiness and flaws of everyday
life
and turn them into material for an intoxicating
party of endless energy- like being stuck in the exact moment
of winning
the AFL premiership cup and feeling the pain and tears
of every losing season drift off your shoulders and disappear
in the
air.’
‘ After 15 years of proving it, The Band Who Knew Too Much are a
truly classic Australian band with an undying spirit for the
complete abandon and joy we feel when we throw our fines out the window,
slam the rent down on the bar and decide there’s no tomorrow-
all night long.’
Woodchop Jazz veterans The Band Who Knew
Too Much celebrate the important things: Beer, Spending
the Rent, Whales, Suburban lunch
cutting and Hard Rubbish nights in Kew.
Must be Beer O'Clock
No sign of The Global Economic Downturn, it's happy Hour 24/7 for
Melbourne Pub Jazz Group The Band Who Knew Too Much.
It's the cold war all over again, except this time it's HOT! It's
Russia vs. Australia. Friday, June 26th at the NSC (301 High St,
Northcote). In the blue corner (with a few stars and some red and
white stripes) is The Band Who Knew Too Much, veterans of sweaty
pub fights all over this brown land. Their Aussie songs of beer-drinking
and rent-spending hit as hard as a woodchopper?s axe. In the red
corner (with a hammer and sickle scribbled out) is VulgarGrad,
who have won many a brawl in the gulags of Siberia and the mean-streets
of Moscow. If you turn your back on them, their vodka-drenched
songs of felony and misdemeanor will knock you straight to the
ground. Officiating the fight is The Coonabarabran kid, who makes
no attempt to hide his allegiances he knows the Aussies don't
need any help on their home turf (Northcote). Doors open at 8:30pm,
tickets are $12 on the door.
Vulgargrad
The Kings of Russian Criminal Sound
For the first time ever in Australia, VulgarGrad bring you the
old songs of the Russian thieves (called blatnie pesny or blatnyak),
along with punk classics of the Perestroika era and a strong dose
of contemporary St. Petersburg swearing ska.
