Busby Marou
It's the Australian (or, in this case, Brisbane) way to take a good thing and claim it as our own.
Overview
Rockhampton mightn't be known for much else but its beef cattle and being half-arsedly nicknamed Rocky, but I'm willing to bet that Busby Marou are going to start making a better name for the town.
Rocky's Busby Marou kind of sound like Josh Pyke, without the pretention (hey, they lent themselves willingly to Nova) and if you have your finger on the pulse, you would've heard 'Biding My Time', which has enjoyed some pretty heavy rotation on Triple J and 106.9 FM here in Brisbane. They just finished up their sold-out headline tour but have also had the pleasure of hanging with Birds of Tokyo, KD Lang and holy shit balls – Miss Dolly Parton herself.
Joining the modest duo is Brisbane boy Ben Salter, who has earned a solid rep as a founding member of no less than seven bands, including being a front man for the Gin Club. He is touring solo this time and is flanked by Sydney’s Winter People.
It's the Australian (or, in this case, Brisbane) way to take a good thing and claim it as our own. Call shotgun on Busby when the What's Yours is Mine tour reaches Brisbane this Friday.
