The February 24 entertainment line-up features
Rosa Maria: A splash of garage, a hint of surf, a measure of psych and a dash of blues, Rosa Maria create a cocktail of rock ‘n’ roll that is uniquely their own. With an insatiable lust to entertain, this is one of the best live bands around.|
Better Off Ted: Rising from the ashes of psychobilly sensations Zombie Ghost Train, Better Off Ted delivers the same party-in-a-graveyard vibe but with a Teddy Boy twist.
Hank’s Jalopy Demons:With their expert renditions of unadulterated rockabilly, late 1950s garage, rock ‘n’ roll and hillbilly, the Jalopy Demons have been shaking up Melbourne since 1996 – just try and keep your feet still!
Ezra Lee: Expect an electrifying performance from this energetic rockabilly king who works the ivories just like ol’ Jerry Lee and can sing with the best of them too.
