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:Svavar Knútur (Iceland)
DESCRIPTION:A native of the rugged north of Iceland\, troubadour and storyteller Svavar Knútur has dedicated his life to exploring the human condition through the lens of his country’s dark and often tragic history and unique melodies and narrative style. \nChanneling the angst ridden serenity of long dark winters and the insomnia of the 24 hour glaring summer sun\, this eclectic musician has in recent years blossomed into a sublime singer and songwriter. Knutur’s songs of misery and redemption deliver a healthy dose of hope in the midst of despair.  A humoristic storyteller and avid diver into the murky waters of the human condition\, Svavar Knútur sows and reaps a unique mixture of art and entertainment. \nDrawing upon a wide range of influences\, three of Svavar Knutur’s most governing ones are without doubt Nick Drake\, Will Oldham (Bonnie Prince Billy) and Kris Kristofferson\, although such artists as Leonard Cohen\, Cat Stevens\, Joni MItchell\, Nick Cave and many more singer/songwriters have contributed to the icelandic troubadour’s development.

SUMMARY:Emmy Ryan
DESCRIPTION:Emmy Ryan wants to tell you a story. Her songs carry truth like a heartbeat — stories of love\, loss\, belonging\, and the land that holds us.  Following in the footsteps of troubadours like Joan Baez and Paul Kelly\, Emmy sings with fierce tenderness about what it means to find home\, to face history\, and to stay open-hearted in a complicated world. With songs that have earnt recognition in the International Songwriting Competition\, the Listen Up Music Songwriting Prize\, the NT Music Awards\, and the Australian Bluegrass and Old Time Music Songwriting Competition\, Emmy invites you in — not just to listen\, but to feel.

SUMMARY:David Cosma
DESCRIPTION:The absolutely wonderful David Cosma returns to the Poet to get your Friday swinging! \nDavid Cosma’s music has been described as “a straight ahead\, thinking person’s songwriter that speaks volumes to what a terrific talent we have in our midst”- Inpress Magazine\, while The Age wrote “his full-bodied croon pairs the silken wryness of Elvis Costello and the gravel of Bob Dylan”. \nInspiring lyrics accompanied by sumptuous melodies and harmonies\, together with his unique method of playing the guitar\, guarantees an impassioned live performance.
