Firebird Trio - Live At Creepy Monkey
- CD
Firebird is a red hot, no holds barred blues and rockabilly trio that take their musical cues from legends as diverse as the Rolling Stones, Stray Cats, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Screamin' Jay Hawkins, and use them to concoct a high-octane sound that is distinctly their own.
Firebird showcases the inventive bass playing of Chris Nomad, the incendiary guitar licks of Pete Belair, and the solid backbeat of Craig Hadlow to create a high voltage rockabilly assault.
Recorded "Live" in the studio at "Creepy Monkey Music", no overdubs, no tricks, one take!
Rock'n'roll the way it used to be done!!
CD's $15

The thunder in the drums and the feedback in the guitars. The hint of high octane. A high performance machine driven by a soaring rock vocal.
The way bluesy, riff driven rock has to be. Live, real, raw and emotional. Recorded “Live To Air” at a small community radio studio on a sultry summer evening, this album captures the vibe and groove of a live performance with a studio clarity offering a unique listening experience.
Turn it on, turn it up and strap yourself in as Palace Of The King take you on a 40 minute assault of pure-as-it-gets warts n' all rock n' roll.

The Humbuckin' Pickups
Under the watchful eye of award winning songwriter Ewan Cloonan, The Humbuckin’ Pickups are a raucous mob, giving their all for Ewan’s songs about Australian characters he’s known, characters he’d like to be and the vengeful things he’d like to do!
Having achieved the dizzy heights of being one of Melbourne's four best ‘never-weres’ in the 2013 ABC Exhumed competition, they’ve been taking their almost award winning performance to the people ever since.
In the last few years the Humbuckers have played Festivals, folk clubs, pubs and anywhere they can hold an audience long enough without being arrested.
Not quite sure whether they’re the folk side of country or the country side of folk, The Humbuckin’ Pickups will have you hootin’, hollarin’, foot stompin’ and occasionally sobbin' into your pint glass.
Skullduggery was recorded “live in the studio” in a day (No mean feat with this raucous “herd of cats”!!!) and released on the Skulduggery Records label. This album captures the true Rootsy Australiana Inspired Folk sound of The Humbuckin' Pickups
