Beloved Australian songwriter Jack Carty hits the road in celebration of his 7th studio album

In The Blue of The Day. Fresh from a national theatre tour with Katie Noonan, Carty will

bring his warm storytelling, wit, acclaimed back catalogue, and new songs to Brisbane,

Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Perth, Adelaide and Bellingen.

Canberra’s XACTO arrive in Melbourne for one night only, bringing the full force of their six piece XTC devotion to the Kindred Bandroom in Yarraville. It is a fiercely detailed dive into one of the most inventive post punk catalogues ever written. XTC stopped touring more than forty years ago, but XACTO keep the flame burning with three guitars, keyboards, rhythmic detail for drums and a room full of choruses that go off like fireworks.
