SPOONFUL are Melbourne's own celebrated regulars across the Blues and Rock live scene. The number of people who have witnessed a Spoonful live show over the years is nothing short of amazing. That they come back again and again is testament to the songs, the sounds, the authenticity of the bands shtick and the flat out great performances. Music fans love them. Loosely formed at Uni in the early 90's, Spoonful – brothers ANDRE WARHURST(guitar & vocals) and KIT WARHURST (drums & vocals) along with DAVID LORD (keys, harp & vocals) and PAUL WINSTANLEY (bass) return to the MBAS as feature act, with their finest retro party lode of Blues, Soul and Rock n Roll of the 60’s and beyond. The thrill hasn't gone. It keeps getting better.
"And then there's the surprise you were looking for. Melbourne's Spoonful are mining a fine retro lode of British Blues/Soul of the 60's. This is the band to get mad-dancingly maggot to." Drum Media Magazine
