Aided by the visual live action performance art of Ant Connolly.
In 2023, i94 hailed the Suburban Bukowskis as ‘stand out’ artists of the year: “they always deliver an earthy, witty set”. The Sydney Morning Herald concurs: “Benito Di Fonzo waxes lyrical about money, Marx and the meaning of life.”
Their latest album Life is a Gateway Drug was recently launched to a full house at the Townie Hotel, Newtown. Stuart Coupe reviews: “There’s lots to like on this” while King Willy Sounds states: “Very entertaining...reminds me of a charming ramshackle tram of characters winding its way down King Street.”
