With tickets to Tim Freedman’s upcoming Eumundi performance on Friday 16 June selling out quickly, The Imperial Hotel has announced a second seated show on Thursday 15 June, with doors opening at 7pm.
Legendary singer/song-writer Tim Freedman is best known as the front-man and songwriter of one of the most loved Australian rock bands The Whitlams – an Australian Recording Industry Group of the Year with three platinum albums.
The Whitlams won Best Group at the 1998 ARIA Awards, as well as Song of the Year and Best Independent Release for their third album Eternal Nightcap.
One of Australia’s most talented creatives, Tim is renowned for his instinct for poignant lyrics and melody, and his highly individual musical style. The good humour and banter of his performances are legendary as is his real talent for live performance.
For the Eumundi shows, Tim will strip back his Whitlams repertoire, delivering classics like No Aphrodisiac and You Sound Like Louis Burdett from the piano, with help from acclaimed pedal steel and guitarist Ollie Thorpe, in what they call The Black Stump Duo.
They have toured together nationally in the Whitlams’ alt-country offshoot, The Whitlams Black Stump Band, and their singles The Day John Sattler Broke His Jaw and Blow Up the Pokies have been staples on Australian country radio over the past year. Their new single is Freedman’s bushranger classic Kate Kelly, performed in a duet with Felicity Urquhart.
TICKETS: $50 (+ booking fee) through Oztix. 18+ event.
Doors open 7pm for the Thursday show and 7.30pm for the Friday show.
