Catch Dave Favours & The Roadside Ashes when they launch their third LP, Service Station Chicken at The Oak, Tighes HIll on Saturday, January 30. The album is easily the most realised in the band’s career and is the perfect showcase for their unique blend of Oz indie rock meets twangy alternative country. According to Favours, “I’ve always loved albums that don’t subscribe to any particular style. We’re often put in the alt-country pigeonhole because at times we have acoustic guitars and pedal steel - there’s dobro and violin on this record as well. But we also pride ourselves in being able to deliver four-on-the-floor rock’n’roll – some call it cowpunk. A Saturday night gig can have a very different feel to a Sunday afternoon show and we’re always mixing it up. I wanted this album to represent that.”Joining them on the night is Newcastle supergroup, Fahm. Their new album, A, is getting a wealth of rave reviews. Captain Beefheart with a little bit of Lubricated goat, The Butcher Shop, (Aussie) X, Tom Waits and the Gun Club all thrown into the mix.
Singer/songwriter Sam Shinazzi, is opening up prodeecings. Sam is launching a killer new album of his own, On a Highway Somewhere.
