A Fancy Evening with Brendan Maclean
There's no such thing as a regular evening with the man known to Baz Luhrmann as "a modern-day Mick Jagger".
Overview
Over the past few years, it seems like Brendan Maclean has been everywhere: on Triple J, popping up in Baz Luhrmann’s Sydney-shot The Great Gatsby, making music and sharing his 140-character thoughts all over Twitter. Now he comes to Brisbane fresh from performing in Italy, France and New York, in a rare and intimate solo show.
In A Fancy Evening with Brendan Maclean, expect his infamous covers of Leonard Cohen, Fleetwood Mac and Lady Gaga, as well as his original solo works. There’s a reason he’s been lauded and applauded by Amanda Palmer and Solange — and if you don’t already know why, here’s your chance to find out.
A fancy evening with Brendan Maclean is one of our top six picks of MELT Festival. See the other five here.
