WHISKY SUPPER,
is our fifth CD, “ALMOST LIVE” the companion to BANGER
FOR BREAKFAST. We have found that our live recordings seem to really
capture who we are, musically and dynamically. On this recording, we had
Tyler Spencer (his band REEBLE
JAR) re-record the didgeridoo parts - hence ALMOST LIVE. We are an
interactive band; we try to engage with our audiences so an instrument
or two might get quieter or louder at some points. Don't worry, one or
another of us is probably playing on someone's table or having a quick
'beverage' in the middle of a set. While you may hear the odd slip here
or there, with this recording you'll feel the energy of our live show!
