Doors 6pm // 8.00-8.40: The Drowsy Maggies // 9.00-10.30: Luke Plumb and The Circuit Album Launch

Turn & ReTurn by Luke Plumb and The Circuit is the first new body of work since the world renowned mandolinist departed from Shooglenifty to return home to Australia. 

With a new band drawing on the talents from members of the John Butler Trio, Flap!, Trouble in the Kitchen and Emma and the Putbacks, Turn & ReTurn is bold music drawing on 15 years of musical interactions from around the world.

Grounded in traditional musics, driven by dance rhythms and highlighted by sparkling interwoven composition and improvisation.

Luke Plumb: mandolin and vocals; Eamon McNelis: vocals and trumpet, Kate Burke: guitar and vocals, Shannon Birchall: double bass, Rory McDougall: drums and Jem Dunlop: guitar .... what a killer band!

The music is a kind of shooglenifty meets cretan music meets the velvet underground meets acid jazz.

This will be one of the shows of 2018!

The Spotted Mallard will once again be the place to be!
