Party: Mark Lucas & Andy Gordon - songsmiths at the pbc

MARK LUCAS

A rare opportunity to catch this seasoned Sydney singer-songwriter out from in front of his long-time band of co-conspirators, the Dead Setters.
Mark is currently working on his fourth solo album with Brendan Gallagher in the production seat. He'll be road-testing songs from that project as well as pulling out & polishing some obscure gems from an extensive back catalog.

“This guy was born to write songs that you’d want to hear on your car stereo as you hit the road”
–Brent McKean, Revolver

“A seamless mix of country & folk from Down Under…encapsulates perfectly the appeal of the true singer-songwriter.” ****–MM, Maverick Magazine (UK)

“a near perfect musical setting for these distinctly Australian tales of restless souls, ghosts of the past, desert vistas and suburban angst.” – Kim Cheshire, Country Update

“perfectly exemplifies Lucas's love of the Heartworn Highways singer-songwriter school and his determination to tell Australian stories. Backed by the Dead Setters Lucas sounds right at home - like he's where he's destined to be.”
- Martin Jones, Rhythms Magazine

ANDY GORDON

It's all about the songs, the words, the songwriting. Born in Wollongong, NSW, Singer, guitarist, percussionist and trumpeter, Andy Gordon has released four solo albums to date: 2009's Life Got In The Way, 2013's The Reverent Jorfy and The Reverent Jorfy - Live and 2014's Black Sea.

Mary Gautier meets Buddy Miller is how his music could be described. He is not afraid to note the pain in the world around him but also to acknowledge the beauty. Andy lives with his love in the beautiful Kangaroo Valley writing and playing his music on the porch in the house they built together, off the grid, on solar power.
