SUMMARY:Victor Stranges plays the songs of Stiff Little Fingers
DESCRIPTION:Victor Stranges returns to the songs that shaped him with Get Stiffed – a rare\, one-night-only dive into the catalogue of Stiff Little Fingers\, the Irish punk band whose songs defined a generation.

Expect material from the band’s early run through their first split in 1983\, spanning Inflammable Material (1979)\, Nobody’s Heroes (1980)\, Go For It (1981) and Now Then… (1982). Tuesday 28 July\, 8:00pm at The Drunken Poet.

SUMMARY:Ash King
DESCRIPTION:Ash King is a blues & roots singer-songwriter from Healesville in Victoria. \nWith his deep powerful voice and funky guitar work\, he balances soulful feel and raw energy. Think John Butler meets Johnny Cash at a BBQ and you’re not far off. As a solo acoustic artist and frontman of blues-rock band Smoke Stack Rhino\, Ash has taken his high-energy live show around Australia\, often having too much fun dancing across the stage with his guitar that he forgets to sing the next verse. \nOver the past year Ash has been recording his debut album. His songs have been described as uplifting\, honest\, thoughtful and fun. ‘I like the saying that “you don’t write the song\, the song writes you”’. Ash is an original storyteller\, an electrifying performer\, and a fresh voice in Australian blues & roots.

SUMMARY:Billy Cart Crash
DESCRIPTION:Billy Cart Crash are a spirited three-piece band from Melbourne’s northern suburbs\, now coming to the big smoke at The Drunken Poet! \nThey blend rockabilly\, jump blues\, swing\, and swamp into a sound that’s uniquely their own. \nWith a hard-hitting slap double bass and high-octane guitar solos\, their original music invites listeners to dance\, unwind\, or rock out. Their songs pay homage to traditional rockabilly themes of “fast cars\, girls n bars”\, using these concepts as playful metaphors for the modern world. \nAt The Drunken Poet in June\, Billy Cart Crash will mix rockabilly roots and greaser flair with a contemporary feel and sound for a two set show!

SUMMARY:Gwyn Ashton
DESCRIPTION:Ashton is on the top of the list of the new wave of modern blues rock artists\, spearheaded by The Black Keys\, Jack White\, Seasick Steve etc. Live\, his dynamic performances also include haunting and mesmerising bottleneck and lap steel moments. \nLaying down a dirty backbeat on a foot drum kit\, bass lines with his thumb\, he attacks his guitar with a bottleneck slide\, sings and blows blues harp into a lofi radio microphone\, creating the illusion of a full band. From a scream to a whisper in a split second\, his dynamic sensitivity on all these instruments defines his musicality and flexibility. \nWith a new single Get Outta Town feat Guns N’ Roses guitarist Richard Fortus and members of Australian bands Cold Chisel and Superjesus\, the Welsh-Australian recently appeared across Europe with prog rockers Wishbone Ash\, co-headlined the Adelaide Guitar Festival in Australia and blazed his way across the UK\, Germany\, Balkans\, Czechia\, Slovakia and Poland. He’s played dozens of festivals across Europe\, UK\, Mexico\, Brazil\, Australia and Russia and tours with some of the biggest names in rock and blues. \nInspired by the likes of Hendrix\, Ry Cooder and David Lindley\, his “guitarsenal” includes a rack of electric and acoustic instruments including lap slide\, resonator\, 12-string and old pawn shop guitars. He plays venues\, festivals\, guitar shows and conducts masterclasses worldwide.
