ED Kuepper will perform in Warburton on 24 and 25 July as part of his ‘Nostalgia For The New’ tour.
An accomplished solo artist and founding member of The Saints, Keupper will appear up close and personal at The Who Club.
A relatively new music venue in the Yarra Valley, The Who Club is a small, dedicated venue that will make for a unique and intimate experience of Kuepper’s music, wit and talent as one of the masters of the Australian music scene.
Kuepper fans will need no introduction to his work, and the success of his ‘By Request’ tour of 2013-’14, including a sold-out performance at the Sydney Festival, featuring a radical re-working of Kuepper Klassics, was classic.
His current tour tackles any industry pre-conceptions, with Kuepper performing largely new and as yet unrecorded material .
The Who Club in Warburton will showcase the new material that is being workshopped, with the intention of a new album before the end of the year.
With each show being performed over two sets and without a support, the shows will also satisfy his fans need for some of his back catalogue gems, along with the new.
The combination of such an intimate, largely unexposed venue, in a beautiful setting by the Yarra River, with the music and presence of one of Australia’s great musicians, could make for a rare, unforgettable music experience.
Tickets are on sale through Mostix or at The Who Club. Phone Frederick Abela on 0427 161 264.
