Event Details

John Kennedy’s 68 Comeback Special launch the Deluxe Edition CD re-release of 1987’s Always The Bridegroom LP.

Sydney musician John Kennedy was enjoying a successful independent career in Australia in the 1980's before the release of his band's Always The Bridegroom LP in 1987. John Kennedy's Love Gone Wrong broke up in mid 1988 as a result, in part, of the mixed responses the album received. 

On listening to the remastered versions of these songs, Kennedy states, “I hear the beating hearts of the songs...They are an important part of my back catalogue - part of my story -  part of my legacy."

John Kennedy’s 68 Comeback Special play songs from the Always The Bridegroom LP to launch the Deluxe Edition CD re-release. Richard Burgman will be guesting on lead guitar. And Alannah Russack will be the special guest opening proceeding with a solo set. 

This is a Covid-safe show.  Pre-sale tickets only. No walk-ups.
