Ghosts in Kulcha

Ghosts, !an L!lburne’s debut album, was launched with its companion piece, the EP Against the Odds, at Kulcha in Fremantle on a wild winter’s night.

The near-capacity crowd had a lively time as the spectacular one-off band performed these haunted songs. In addition to the fifteen released tracks, the repertoire included a selection of L!lburne’s original blues and rock numbers plus the quirky fairy tale, A Piece of Advice from A Cheshire Cat. 

The ever-evolving band included many of the fine musicians who played on the recordings: Phil Bailey (bass), Abe Dunovits (Latin percussion + electric guitar), Pete Grandison (guitars + mandolin), Kate Hall (backing vocals), Reuben Kooperman (snare + brushes), Peter Smith (drums), Jennifer Tingley (cello), and Cathie Travers (accordion).

Fifty per cent of the proceeds from the sale of Against the Odds were donated to Médecins Sans Frontières Australia. See the News page for further details of this charitable arrangement.

The show was filmed by Bob Glover (Timeline Productions), recorded by Jericho Music and photographed by Dave Barry. See Gallery.
