To celebrate 25 years of Musical Mischief, The Empress Hotel is hosting a series of very special performances by some of its favourite Melbourne alumni. Friday night features none other than CASH SAVAGE & THE LAST DRINKS.

This woman and her bastardly mob need no introduction. You've seen them demolish stages from The Tote to Tamworth to Meredith and back, now see them in the dim caverns of The Empress. Cash's take on country blues is downright nasty. Together with her swaggering, stomping band which includes two drummers and many beards, Cash creates a mad cacophony - fitting for The Empress' sound-battered walls.

Joining them will be THE MERRI CREEK PICKERS, with their Dylan-esque blues jams and unconventional drinking methods, as well as everyone's preferred brand of cabaret sauciness THE NYMPHS.

Tickets will sell fast for this show so don't be messing around.
