Spencer P Jones with morals of a minor 5 may

Melbourne’s favourite songwriter and guitar hero Spencer P Jones has released his hotly anticipated 6th solo album.
Aptly titled “Fugitive Songs”, this album is the first album entirely recorded with his current band The Escape Committee.

That fact that Spencer P Jones is not a household name is simply astounding when you consider the impressive credentials he carries. Most notably, he is the founding guitarist in influential Australian hard rock legends, Beasts Of Bourbon, as well as taking on guitar and vocal duties in another highly regarded export, cow-punk kings The Johnnys. He’s also played in the bands
of such internationally lauded artists as The Gun Club, Violent Femmes, Paul Kelly, Renee Geyer, These Immortal Souls, Andre Williams, Sacred Cowboys, Lydia Lunch and Chris Bailey.

INDONESIA’S FINEST TO ROCK DOWN UNDER

THE SUPER INSURGENT GROUP OF INTEMPERANCE TALENT (or THE SIGIT to their mates) are West Java’s pre-eminent exponents of electric rocknroll boogaloo. They are a much loved institution in their homeland and we’re excited that they’re bringing their rocknroll party to our shores. With a four track EP already in the shops and airplay building around the country, the band will be coming down to support those top Aussie blokes called DALLAS CRANE on selected dates around Australia and will also join THE BEASTS OF BOURBON on a couple of dates too. Reverberation and Caveman! will be unleashing their debut album Visible Idea of Perfection in Australia to coincide with the tour. With a live show that walks proudly on the wild side and an album packed with insta-rockin classics like Clove Doper and Black Amplifier, THE SIGIT are not to be missed.
