Get out your shoulder pads and prepare your dance moves for what be a cracker night when Brisbane band The Jensens take to the stage to re-ignite Talking Heads album ‘Stop Making Sense’ at The Imperial Hotel Eumundi on Friday 3 December. They will be supported by up and coming Brisbane band Cheap Date.
The Jensens will don the big suit, finesse their dance moves and perform a full set from one of the most influential bands of the 80’s, Talking Heads. Burning Down The House, Once In A Lifetime, Psycho Killer, This Must Be The Place’… all the hits plus some fan favourites.
In 2019 The Jensens worked to re-establish their unique sound in Australian music. Their self-produced debut album ‘Hyacinth Haze’ saw them progress from the vintage garage pop of earlier EPs to a bolder, more classic approach of songwriting. A clever mix of musical styles and production resulted in a grand, often enigmatic vision of a world in dismay.
They wasted no time at all with a second self-produced album ‘Hammer & Blush’ released earlier this year. Loaded with a refined blend of psych-rock and disco, it’s their truest most optimistic expression yet of 21st century life.
The Jensens’ unique sound and magnetic live shows have earned them slots at events including Splendour In The Grass, Jungle Love and Valley Fiesta.
They’ve also supported acts including The Vaccines, Last Dinosaurs, The Bleeding Knees, The Delta Riggs, Kingswood and The Belligerents.
Less than six months since establishing their name, Cheap Date have burst into the Brisbane indie music scene with thrilling energy and groovy tunes that work the sounds of 90’s pop rock.
