LEGENDS OF MOTORSPORT with BARBARION and Look Who’s Toxic
Sat 6 February 2010
Doors open 8.30
In the Beginning there was Yeah Uh Huh. Legends have long spoken of Yeah Uh Huh as a primal force, the fountainhead of all that is good, but at the dawning of the 21st Century Yeah Uh Huh was in decline - its message diluted, its power scattered. And so it was that Lightbulb Fyshwick was sent on a quest to find the source of Yeah Uh Huh. After a lengthy pilgrimage to the beard capitals of the world he wound up in the Riff Mountains of Morocco where the true Yeah Uh Huh was revealed unto him. Having thus been ordained as a minister of Yeah Uh Huh, Lightbulb returned to Legends HQ to spread the good word of Yeah Uh Huh. So it is written - that Legends of Motorsport will bring the Yeah Uh Huh to the faithful, with extra grunt from Barbarion and Look Who’s Toxic. Yeah Uh Huh.

Sun 7 February 2010
Doors 7.45
BIRUSHANAH from Osaka Japan have been pummelling audiences since 2002 with their inimitable blend of industrial, doom, rock - incorporating traditional Japanese scales with junk percussion and thunderously epic, low-end riffery.

Doors 8.30
Following on from their stellar performances at last year’s Falls Festival, as well as headline shows in Melbourne and Brisbane and a standout spot supporting Fleet Foxes in Sydney, San Francisco’s raucous, freewheeling, power-percussion, folk-pop sensations, The Dodos, return to Australia in February 2010. Centred around the key elements of fiery drumming and Fahey-infused finger-picking, the creative core of The Dodos has now been blessed with vibraphone both on record and in the live setting, further enhancing the band’s dalliance into the world of being a bit more rock’n'roll - hell, frontman Meric Long even plays standing up these days. Their brilliant new album, ‘Time To Die’, the follow-up to 2008’s critically acclaimed ‘Visiter’, was produced by Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, The Shins, Built To Spill) and is out now.

HUNGRY KIDS OF HUNGARY (QLD) with Boy & Bear (NSW), Ernest Ellis (NSW) and The Box Rockets
Sat 27 February 2010
Doors 8.00
Serving their touring apprenticeship throughout 2009, Hungry Kids of Hungary have emerged with hardened stomachs, the ability to sleep standing and a dynamically honed live show capable of drawing new audiences purely by word of mouth. A short 12-months since triple j Unearthed invited the newbies to play a spot at the Gold Coast Big Day Out, the Hungry Kids of Hungary have since toured alongside the Philly Jays and Washington and provided national support for Bertie Blackman and Little Birdy before heading out on their very own national headline tour. The monumentally busy year was capped off with solid festival appearances at Woodford, Falls, Sunset Sounds and Southbound. With an overseas assault to the UK and USA scheduled for April, the lads are currently bunkered down in producer Matt Redlich’s poolside Brisbane studio as work begins on their debut album. And just as studio cabin fever is predicted to set in, Hungry Kids of Hungary will let loose on the road again with a string of dates around the country in late February. Along for the ride are the musical explorations of Ernest Ellis and the ethereal melodies of Boy and Bear, with a local support The Box Rockets.

THE VAUDEVILLE SMASH (EP launch) (Labour Day Public Holiday Eve) with special guests
Sun 7 Mar 2010
Doors 8.30
2009 saw the dawning of The Vaudeville Smash. Evolving out of the Melbourne funk scene, The Smash’s outrageous live shows soon saw them packing out venues such as the Espy and the Night Cat and garnering a legion of die hard fans. It’s a trip back to the days when ‘Earth Wind and Fire’ reigned, when ‘Parliament’ rocked and when the Sitcom theme song was a genre unto itself. When it came to recording, their objective was to capture on record what they’d been doing live week in and week out. What resulted was the same spontaneous energy that performers of old caught in their one-take recordings. With the launch of their EP followed by a national tour, 2010 will witness the rise and rise of one of the most energetic and innovative bands to come out of Melbourne for many a year.

WOODEN SHJIPS (USA) with Kim Salmon & The Surrealists and Breathing Shrine - SELLING FAST!
Wed 10 March 2010
Doors 8.00
Mistletone is proud to present for the first time in Australia the super psychedelic sounds of San Francisco’s Wooden Shjips. Wooden Shjips (that’s not a typo) is a quartet who play rock n roll in a style heavily influenced by the experimentalism of psychedelia, classical minimalism and garage rock excess. Started as an experiment in rhythmic primitivism and group improvisation, the current lineup brings a more structured rock approach to its performances. Its songs sound something akin to the icy garage rock of early Echo & The Bunnymen crossed with the sun-bleached tremolo-punk of the Scientists. There are hints of krautrock, the trance-inducing organ haze of Suicide, Deerhunter style dance-drone, classic desert-fried garage psych and the mysterious, obscure Japanese lysergic-rock band Les Rallizes Denudes all mixed into one explosive whole.

Doors 8.30
Singer-songwriter Angie Hart rose to fame with the Melbourne-based alt- pop band ‘Frente’ which formed in 1991, selling more than a million records worldwide and changing the face of pop music and radio formatting in Australia. Since those days she’s performed in the bands Splendid and Holidays on Ice and performed her music on worldwide smash TV shows such as ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’. Angie’s sophomore solo album, the recently released ‘Eat My Shadow’, was recorded with ARIA-Award winning producer Shane Nicholson and mixed by Nash Chambers. It has received unanimous critical acclaim from every corner, with The Age decrying: “Her writing has evolved into a seamless expression of wisdom and craft” and that “Hart’s voice has never sounded so effortless”. That voice remains one of the most singular in Australia, often-imitated but never bettered.

Lashing Tango, Rockabilly, Latin and Gypsy with breaks, hard-hitting guitar riffs, double kick blast beats and massive horn arrangements The Barons of Tang serve up their self described gypsy ‘deathcore’. With accordion, double bass, saxophone and tuba to name just a few, the 6 piece Melbourne outfit bend mainly traditional gypsy and tango feels played in the most inappropriate and bastardised ways.

BMF presents TRUCKSTOP HONEYMOON (USA) with Sarah Carroll & The Blue Tinsel
Sun 21 Mar 2010
Doors 7.30
Katie Euliss learned guitar, piano and bucket bass in the streets of New Orleans. She scammed enough money from tourists to buy Lucky Strikes and smoked oysters for six years. Then she met Mike West. Part entertainer, part snake oils salesman, Mike lived by pickin’ banjo and selling cds that he claimed were a curative for hangovers and small mindedness. Together they began a perpetual tour of North America, Europe and Australia. They spent their wedding night in the Tiger Truck Stop, somewhere between Lafayette and the Atchafalya Swamp. Truckstop Honeymoon was born. They play banjos and wash tubs. They sing about adultery and oil refineries. It’s break-neck breakdowns or heart-break waltzes. Like a Dodge with a burnt out clutch, their music has two speeds and no reverse.
