A little birdy tells us Fi Claus is very excited to be flying down to give Melbourne audiences an exclusive Launch of her Debut Album ‘Bijoux’, when she plays at the 2008 NHNL Xmas Show at The Corner Thursday 11 December.

As if that wasn’t enough incentive, who should happen to be headlining the night but that very exquisite rock chic: Angie Hart… plus a number of other stellar acts will feather this bill – TBA very soon. Further reason to find yourself at this seminally pop-rocking night is the chance to buy one of the 129 remaining Limited Edition (numbered and signed) first printed copies of Bijoux which are only available on the night or online through Fi’s Myspace site and Website (see www.ficlaus.com for details).
