Two of Australia’s premier emerging acts, Bluejuice and The Paper Scissors have officially announced a massive co headline national tour.

Post-indie/soul four-piece The Paper Scissors first hit the national limelight in 2006 with their track ‘We Don’t Walk’ from their self titled ‘The Paper Scissors EP’. Their burgeoning reputation for frenetic, crowd-friendly, loud and tumultuous live shows saw them hit stages nationwide with the likes of Midnight Juggernauts, Datarock, Patrick Wolf and at festivals such as Falls, Southbound and The Great Escape.

Dappled Cities return to Australia for their first string of headline dates since relocating to New York City mid 2007.

ADAM FRANKLIN (Swervedriver - UK) with Sarah Kelly (The Redsunband)
Sun 17 Feb 2008
Doors 8.30
Adam Franklin spent the 1990s as singer, guitarist and main songwriter for London-based Swervedriver, the genre-breaching Creation Records rock band. Since Swervedriver went into orbit in 1999, Adam Franklin has experimented with a number of stylings on six releases under the name Toshack Highway. Franklin’s seventh post-Swervedriver solo album, ‘Bolts of Melody’ is his first under his own name. His newest work alternates between a full band sound with acoustic and electric guitars, keyboards and bubbly moogs that has been described as “spacefolk”. Sometimes, it’s a much more back-to-basics affair. Occasionally a little electronic, sometimes psychedelic, a little bit country, a little rock ‘n’ roll - take a listen when Adam Franklin returns with his solo live show.

‘Brunswick Music Festival’ presents MARTIN MARTINI & THE BONE PALACE ORCHESTRA with Flap! and Rose Turtle Ertler
Fri 29 Feb 2008
Doors 8.30
Martin Martini and The Bone Palace Orchestra have carved a unique and infamous niche as a raucous, downtrodden gypsy rock band renowned for high energy stage shows and bastard bent distinctive song writing.

Front man Martin Martini set about creating a sound that fuses musical genres whilst exploring Martini’s love of the macabre. “Think Baz Luhrmann meets Tim Burton, think The Cat Empire with manic depression.” Beat Magazine.

Sat 1 Mar 2008
Doors 8.30
There ain’t nothing nice about Truckstop Honeymoon - duo Katie Euliss and Mike West. 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. “The chemistry between them is captivating and before long you’re thinking that living down wind from the oil refinery and making soap out of squirrel fat is the most romantic thing in the world.” (Manchester Music)

Elana James is the just the beez kneez in Texas fiddle music; after a decade with the renowned Hot Club of Cowtown, the hottest young string band in the US, Elana found herself working in the Bob Dylan touring band and recording with Willie Nelson. She then fell effortlessly into recording her own fabulous self titled debut solo album. “Not unlike fellow Texan Norah Jones, Miss James is fiercely traditional, and yet oozes an effortless contemporary charm. Her bow work, sweet and nimble, references Western swing legend Bob Wills and jazz master Stephane Grappelli… and she can purr like Nancy Sinatra” - Washington Times.

GALACTIC (featuring Chali 2na of Jurassic 5 & Boots Riley of The Coup - USA) with special guest
Sun 23 Mar 2008
Doors 8.00
Direct from the Blues and Roots Festival, New Orleans based Galactic started out over a decade ago as an instrumental act in the tradition of the Meters, the JB’s, and Booker T. & the MG’s – bands equally comfortable recording their own material or working with vocalists. Their album ‘From the Corner to the Block’ (2007) grew out of Galactic’s experiences touring with artists like the Roots, Jurassic 5, Triple Threat DJs and Gift of Gab. Although it features cameos from a ‘wish list’ of fan-favourite MCs, this isn’t a typical hip-hop album nor hip-hop act.

With the incredible international success of this, their eighth album, Kataklysm is at the top of its game and selling more albums than ever.

BLUEJUICE (NSW) with THE PAPER SCISSORS (NSW) and special guest
Sat 17 May
Doors 8.30
Two of Australia’s premier emerging acts, Bluejuice and The Paper Scissors have officially announced a massive co headline national tour. It’s been nothing short of a phenomenal few months for punk hoppers Bluejuice. ‘Vitriol’, the first single from debut album ‘Problems’, was the second most played song on Triple J in 2007 and new single ‘The Reductionist’ has been on high rotation for over two months. Post-indie/soul four-piece The Paper Scissors first hit the national limelight in 2006 with their track ‘We Don’t Walk’ from their self titled ‘The Paper Scissors EP’. Their burgeoning reputation for frenetic, crowd-friendly, loud and tumultuous live shows saw them hit stages nationwide with the likes of Midnight Juggernauts, Datarock, Patrick Wolf and at festivals such as Falls, Southbound and The Great Escape.
