Christmas is coming, a time for over-indulgence, and so it is that, sheepishly, as one who returns for an encore too many, I announce that we will in fact play one more last for gig 2009 – in addition to the last gig for 2009 that we played last Saturday night.

Those who pulled out all stops to make last week’s last gig of the year – fair ’nuff, you’re done. The rest of you have one last chance to groove with us! Until the next chance you get.

SATURDAY 5th DEC, 9.30pm
$20/18
Bennetts Lane Jazz Club
Bennetts Lane (off Little Lonsdale- Melb)
Tickets available online at Moshtix or just show up

For those enamoured of animation (say that ten times fast after an egg nog or three), I was privileged to score the music for Fleur McArthur’s enchanting creation of visual splendour ‘Poppy Heartwood’, which is screening at ACMI Cinemas in December – details below. You can hear some of the music on the film page of aforementioned dashing new website, or show up to the shows themselves and enjoy it on the big screen, egg nog in hand.
