Straight To You: Triple J’s Tribute to Nick Cave
He has created the sound for multiple generations, and thus it’s only fitting that a tribute tour be made for this brilliant man.
Overview
Earlier this year I was in Melbourne and saw Nick Cave in a cafe/bar one lunch time. He strode in sporting his classic look of tight black jeans, pointy boots, a western inspired shirt (slightly open) and aviators. I melted.
It seems Nick Cave has had this effect on most of Australia, and now in the style of previous tributes to AccaDacca, The Go-Betweens and Paul Kelly, Triple J have coordinated a tribute to Cave.
A posse of musicians including Dan Sultan, Kram, Abbe May, Lisa Mitchell and Tim Rodgers, are performing their favourite Nick Cave songs for his and their fans at the Tivoli, and you should go, everyone should. Why?
Cave is the Australian music star, who has never sold out. He has traversed genres and cutting-edge musical terrain without fear or trepidation. Because of this he has created some of the most formidable and inimitable music of the last 30+ years. His acts have included The Boys Next Door, The Birthday Party, The Bad Seeds and now Grinderman. He has created the sound for multiple generations, and thus it’s only fitting that a tribute tour be made for this brilliant man.
