We had the privilege of chatting on the phone with Smith Street Band frontman Will Wagner about their upcoming album and tour.
The tour includes a 29th of November date at their beloved home-away-from-home the Rosemount, and if any one of you enjoys anything about the Poison City inspired punk rock resurgence you should grab a ticket before they are unavailable.
5 tracks and a whole lotta heart, the Melbourne foresome cover all the bases from their back catalogue, quiet intros building into sing along chorus’, full on screams and poetic justice.
They played a killer set lasting almost two hours, plucking mainly from sophomore LP The 59’ Sound and Handwritten, as well as throwing a couple covers in for good measure, with a great rendition of Bon Iver’s ‘Blood Bank’ sandwiched in the middle of ‘Angry Johnny and the Radio’ as well as covering The Misfits’ ‘Astro Zombies’ at the drunken request of a Welshman in the crowd.
