This also coincides with the 45th anniversary of X-Aspirations, said to be one of the most important recordings in Australia's rmusic industry!

Special guests for this night of nights are Tantichrist and To Be Human and tickets are here.
Charlie Owen brings his Search to NSW and Canberra

Charlie Owen’s solo shows under the “Searching for Charlie Owen” banner have attracted full houses and warm reviews.

Long considered “a guitarist’s guitarist”, the music and spoken words sets have taken audiences backstage via Charlie’s warm, funny and sometimes sad reflections on the people he’s met and played with.

The multi-instrumentalist is doing it all again in August with select shows in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.

From his influential work with Tex Don and Charlie, Beasts of Bourbon, The Beasts and the “Distemper” period New Christs to collaborations with Louis Tillett, Paul Kelly, Tendrilsand Working Class Ringos. Charlie has consistently pushed the boundaries of his craft whilst captivating audiences with his ferocious and at times tender performances.

With a career spanning four decades there are a lot of back pages to explore. "Finding Charlie Owen" is proudly presented by i94bar.com and Soundpressing Records.
