Feel Presents DIG IT UP! Hoodoo Gurus Invitational 2013 Part 2: The Local Chapter

| 26 February 2013 | Reply

Tickets on-sale NOW!

As if the inclusion of international heavyweights Blue Oyster Cult, Flamin’ Groovies, Buzzcocks, and Peter Case of The Nerves ain’t enough, the Hoodoo Gurus have gone and selected a whole swag of local acts (starting with The Stems), embracing a huge range of eras and styles so long as it rocks (and rolls). From the green-fuzz of Sydney’s Lime Spiders to the bump and grind of Melbourne’s nefarious The Moodists via the snot and bile of Sydney punks Straight Arrows and on to Melbourne’s two-girl garage queens Super Wild Horses. It’s dirty and mean and mighty unclean and it’s all tailor-made for Dig it Up! Get the next dose here…

Hoodoo Gurus Dig It Up Invitational 2013

Sydney:
Lime Spiders: “The Sex Pistols on acid” – David Fricke – we ain’t gonna argue! Their first Sydney show in yonks. The Crusaders: Sword wielding maniacs from planet garage-punk. Another rare sighting. Super Wild Horses: two-girl scuzz-pop from Melbourne with an ace new single. The Laurels: Sydney’s psychedelic overlords play their final Sydney show before departing for parts and planets unknown. Mother & Son: blues, surf and garage all rolled up into one dense brew. Intoxicating. Bloods: Young Sydney 3-piece puttin’ the pop back into the fuzz.

Melbourne:
The Moodists: A post-punk super-group of nobodies who became somebodies. Welcome back Dave (Graney), Clare (Moore), Steve (Miller), Chris (Walsh) and Mick (Turner). Ron S.Peno & The Superstitions: rambunctious country-soul from the Died Pretty frontman – an essential element in the mix. Super Wild Horses: see above. The Straight Arrows: What? These punks again! Bring a raincoat. Bored Nothing: Not (as the name would suggest) nihilistic-punks but rather, forward thinking songsmiths. Special. Chris Russell’s Chicken Walk is the real deal – northern Mississippi style. Let’s get funky!

Plus loads more to follow.

Tickets for everything everywhere are on-sale now.
