Event Duration: 210 minutes

The Ancients are launching their grand new album The Ancients 2

It is a dazzling cascade of guitar motifs, textural pools, and rhythmic delights with a surreal lyrical feel that rewards close and repeated listening at moderate volume.  It is brought to you by Sensory Projects.

Supporting them on the night will be Hobart's Native Cats. Singer Peter Escott is one of only a few serious front men operating in the business today with the sharpest one-liners and the greatest repertoire of tangential stage moves seen outside a modern dance context.  Bass man Julian Teakle completes this magnetic duo with sinuous post punk bass lines and an unsettling Tasmanian rebel yell.   

First up will be the fantastic kraut dub boogie of The French. They have completed a fantastic new EP and will be on the tip of everyone's tongue by summer.

Doors at 8.00PM
