A Lil’ Band o’ Gold Australian tour 2012 has been announced that will see the Louisiana swamp rock’n’roll supergroup return to Australia with a brand new album in tow.
The new musical offering will be the release of ‘Lil’ Band o’ Gold Play Fats’. This record will feature cover versions of the bands favourite Fats Domino songs with guest vocalists and fans Robert Plant, Elvis Costello, Lucinda Williams and our Australia very own Jimmy Barnes and Tim Rogers lending a hand.
Again Australia will be the very first place that this record will be available.
Lil’ Band o’ Gold features some of the most influential musicians to ever have emerged from America’s most important musical state.
The band features singer and drummer Warren Storm, the man considered the grandfather of swamp pop, accordion champion Steve Riley, the creativity of Dickie Landry on saxophone, West Australia’s very own Lucky Oceans on pedal steel, much covered songwriter David Egan on piano, Vocalist and guitarist CC Adcock , Pat Breaux and bass man Philippe Billeaudeaux.
Yes….that is one almighty line up.
The Lil’ Band O’ Gold shows will deliver a sweet and soulful journey with their mixture of energetic romps and soulful ballads delivering the diverse musical goods that are the band’s hallmark. It is a musical tour de force that any true music lover cannot afford to miss.
