The Gin Club - PROFILE
http://www.eatnoise.com/theginclub
Based in Brisbane, Australia, The Gin Club are a musical collective who perform an eclectic mix of rock, pop, folk, blues, country, and everything in between.
Drawing influence from the attitudes of artists such as The Band, Neil Young and The Wu-Tang Clan, The Gin Club's live show is instrument-swapping madness, rousing choruses and heartbreak
backed by cello, accordion, Hammond organ and heaps of guitars.
Since their formation through a chance meeting at an Open-mic night in 2003, The Gin Club has released three albums to public and critical acclaim, namely, their most recent release: 2008’s
Junk. This double album features 26 original songs, covering a breathtaking amount of musical ground and granted them several accolades including Song of the Year award at the 2008 QSong
Awards.
The inimitable troupe have toured Australia and abroad, playing with many varied acts such as Paul Kelly, The Drones, Tim Rogers, You Am I and Pete Murray, as well as performing at major
events including The Big Day Out, East Coast Blues and Roots, Splendor in the Grass, Woodford Folk Festival, Canadian Music Week, Musicexpo LA and many more.
