Tex Perkins and Matt Walker - with special guest Harmony Byrne

Next date: Friday, 10 June 2022 | 07:30 PM to 10:30 PM

Aria Award winners Tex Perkins and Matt Walker are two of Australia's best loved and most successful contemporary roots artists.

A powerful live show featuring songs spanning Tex Perkins’ vast catalogue and new material Tex and Matt wrote for their Fat Rubber Band album.

Tex’s career has included everything from; the Lilting, Dark Country of the Dark Horses, the hard-edged and snarling pub rock of the Beasts Of Bourbon, through to the evocative soundscapes of The Cruel Sea who produced the now-classic “The Honey is Over”.

Joined by former Yarra Ranges resident Matt Walker, gun guitarist, vocalist master songwriter and producer has seen him highly sought in collaborations with the likes of Broderick Smith on My Shiralee, Ash Davies on the ground-breaking I listen to the Night and as front-man for Lost Ragas.

“Tex has the swagger, presence and indomitable attitude that comes from years of fronting some of Australia’s most intense and spirited rock’n’roll bands. His take-no-prisoners approach to performance comes with the sensibility of an artist committed to the subtle (and often unsubtle) nuances of his craft. Throw in an astonishing voice full of power and depth, mix it with a dry and sardonic sense of humour and what emerges is the reason there is only one Tex Perkins.” – Stuart Coupe.
