1 WEEK to go! Until my full band and I, @supalucia and Ruby and The Cannons hit @thetoffintown stage next Friday, 22 May from 7pm! ☮️💜💜💜✌️
Presale tickets $15 plus a small booking fee and still available from the link in my bio 👆 or $20 on the door on the night (but don’t risk waiting!) 🎫
I would now love to introduce you to the amazing @rubyandthecannons who will also be supporting me! 🥹🌼 The first time I heard Ruby’s music I was blown away and quickly became part of my playlists that I listen to on repeat.
Ruby and the Cannons is a four piece indie rock outfit from Melbourne, drawing on a mix of influences from each member, spanning from Fleetwood Mac to The Brian Jonestown Massacre, with a nod to 1970s rock sensibilities. Their 2023 self-titled EP Ruby and the Cannons introduced the band’s collaborative songwriting, balancing varied inspirations without leaning on any single style.
They have performed across Melbourne venues and appeared at Laneway Festival in 2023, bringing their songs into live settings. A self-produced full-length album is planned for late 2026, reflecting the combined perspectives and tastes of the four members while continuing to explore their evolving sound.
If you love 1960’s Psychedelic Rock, you won’t want to miss this! 🕉️🌈✌️💜💜💜

EPISODE 25 INCOMING ⚡️⚡️⚡️
What a ride!
When I moved to Melbourne in early 2023, I knew I wanted to explore the music scene just as much as I wanted to explore this city, and this amazing country that is Aus.
I love this place, and I love its music.
Honestly… I don’t know if I’d even have a personality without it.
The first pic? An early hand-drawn pic of what the logo might look like…back when I had no idea what the show’s format would be. I’d just wrapped up hosting Big Smoke Music Weekly in the UK (80+ artists interviewed), and soon the idea of the Dream Gig Venue was born. My man Lenny from DICE stepped up as the first guest 🙌
Swipe ➡️ to see some of the ace artists I’ve been lucky enough to research, discover the secrets and inspirations behind, and - let’s be honest - chat plenty of shit with. These artists have soundtracked my life on the other side of the world, and I can’t thank them enough for sharing their time and love.
Hundreds of emails. Countless gig reviews. New venues explored. Friendships formed. Hours of editing.
All worth it. ❤️
Next week…. A real fun interview with a band I just know will keep growing their fanbase after dropping an unreal second album!
Thanks for coming along for the ride. Plenty more to come! 🎸🎸🎸
