About this Event
Join Brisbane music legend Robert Forster for an intimate evening of stories and songs, as he sits down with a different iconic Queensland songwriter in each edition of this live conversation series. Across the night, each guest performs five songs that helped define their career – stripped back and live – interwoven with personal reflections and behind-the-scenes stories that bring the music to life.
Dave McCormack is a national treasure. As frontman of Custard, he helped soundtrack a generation of 90s Australia with hits like Girls Like That and Music is Crap, known for their wit, charm, and infectious hooks. In recent years, Dave has found a second life as the voice of Bandit in the global phenomenon Bluey, bringing warmth and humour to millions of families. Whether in front of a guitar or behind a microphone, Dave brings a singular energy and perspective to everything he does.
