My Friend the Chocolate Cake Tour and Exclusive Live Album
My Friend the Chocolate Cake hit the road once more with a string of dates through May and June. To celebrate they're treating Choccy Cake fans to an exclusive new live album. Available to purchase at the shows or online only, the new album features hidden gems and unheard takes on old favourites, all of which have been recorded live throughout the band's sprawling 25 year career - an absolute must have for fans. So have your cake and eat it too at THE BASEMENT.
This is suburban folk rock at its finest. Singer/songwriter and pianist David Bridie, alongside the glorious strings of Helen Mountfort's cello and Hope Csutoros' violin are high in the curious collision of elements that have made MFTCC a failsafe concert draw, triple ARIA winners and a vivid presence on countless film and TV soundtracks these last two decades. Their seven-album history is a multi-dimensional mural of modern Australia that illustrates its geography, its political mores and its predominantly suburban identity.
"Abounds with beauty and life" (Sunday Herald Sun)
"Beautiful, creative, sorrowful, masterful music by a bunch of lovely people...... Right from opening number 'The Centre Cannot Hold' from their most recent album, MFTCC commanded a rapt and reverent hush from the heaving Basement crowd. You could have heard a pin drop throughout the whole song."(Live review, Live Guide)
