Unforgettable campfire-jam
IT’S time to stomp your boots to the grassroots and electro beats of Moontricks as they bring their folky and innovative sound to the Tanks this April in their epic return to Australia after five years.
Canadian electro-folk duo the Moontricks have returned to Australia and they’re coming to the Tanks Arts Centre for an unforgettable show to promote their debut album ‘Currents’ on Friday, April 11.
The duo will bring their mixture of grassroots, blues, folk rock and electronic to the Cairns stage and give the audience the feel of a campfire jam session.
“We’ve always had such amazing and memorable times performing and exploring Australia and we couldn’t be happier to come back,” said one half of the Moontricks, Sean Rodman.
“It’s been five years since our last trip, time flies. It’ll be such a treat to revisit some of our favourite places and reconnect with the good friends and fans we’ve made there.
“We come from a beautiful mountainous part of Western Canada and our music carries a piece of our remote home and the wilderness through it. We’re excited to share that and share our common ground together.
“The audiences we’ve performed to have all been so receptive and supportive of our music, bringing such good energy to the show and we’ve got lots of new material to showcase tied in with our old favourites.
“Our show has a wide range of music genres and vibes that will take the audience on a journey from heartfelt ballads to high energy boot stompers.
“We’re really excited to be performing a recent song release that we wrote and recorded during our last trip to Australia with Queensland local, Joe Newton called ‘Devil’s Wine’. Joe is such an amazing musician and now a good friend. The song came together on a farm in Bellingen and carries a very special place in our hearts.”
Mr Rodman said this was an opportunity to celebrate the return of the band, stomp their feet, vibe to good music and share a moment with the band.
“I think we have something pretty unique to bring from the opposite corner of the world with us. Our music hits a wide demographic of people, young and old, with a broad range of tastes,” he said.
