Lloyd Cole makes his anticipated return to Australia in March 2026, performing two solo electric sets at the Odeon.
The performance will run the gamut from his masterful debut with the Commotions, ‘Rattlesnakes’, right up to 2023’s acclaimed ‘On Pain’, and touching on all points in between.
Says Lloyd: “In 1999, in retreat from mainstream ambivalence, the idea of becoming a troubadour was perversely alluring. Two acoustic guitars, a suitcase, and a round the world ticket. It took a while for me to become comfortable with it, but The Folksinger Show became my staple.
And then, somehow or other, twenty-five years were gone, and now I find myself approaching the end of my career, and wanting to be seen more as just a singer, who wrote a body of work, very little of which one would reasonably label ‘folk’. So I’m back with my Telecaster, my Princeton amp, and my solo show is now electric.”
For one night only, the sonic craftsman will revisit this expansive catalogue.
