In August 1983, Spencer P Jones, James Baker, Tex Perkins, Kim Salmon and Boris Sujdovic came together to form The Beasts Of Bourbon. 30 years, various line ups, several break ups, numerous reformations, a few ‘never agains’, six studio albums and an endless run of blistering brutal ear shattering live shows, The Beasts are back, and ruthless as ever.
At the request of good friend’s The Drones the original line up reformed to play ATP’s I’ll Be Your Mirror earlier this year, reigniting the beastly flame that seems impossible to extinguish.
Headlining Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival with The Low Road Line Up, a national tour with the legendary Stooges with the line up that is known today followed what was originally slated as a one off performance. If that is not enough, July sees the release of a special three disc set featuring live performances recorded in 2013.
30 Years Of Borrowed Time celebrates 30 years of The Beasts Of Bourbon. And to commemorate this milestone, The Beasts are putting on six special shows this August, three consecutive nights in Sydney and Melbourne, a different line up each night and a different set each night.
Original Line Up of Tex Perkins, Spencer P Jones, Kim Salmon, James Baker, Boris Sujdovic will play a selection of songs from The Axeman’s Jazz, Sour Mash and Black Milk albums.
Low Road Line Up of Tex Perkins, Spencer P Jones, Kim Salmon, Tony Pola, Brian Hooper will play songs from The Axeman’s Jazz, Sour Mash, Black Milk and The Low Road albums.
Current Line Up of Tex Perkins, Spencer P Jones, Charlie Owen, Tony Pola, Brian Hooper will play songs from The Axeman’s Jazz, Sour Mash, Black Milk, The Low Road, Gone and Little Animals albums.
Come to your favourite Beast lineup or come to them all.
Ticket price is $44 for one show, $79 for two shows or $110 for three shows.
