Bluejuice (Head of The Hawk tour)

Overview

If there’s a band I know well and have seen many times, it is ‘the juice’. I watched them 14 times last year when my band The Paper Scissors (plug!) toured with them so we've shared many a sweaty van, band rooms and bottle of booze.

Seeing them this many times I have bared witness to the fact that they are a pillar of entertainment and musicality, every show putting on an amazing performance; they literally put their lives on the line (I have been concerned for Jake Stone’s safety watching him treat lighting rigs like monkey bars).

You would have heard them a lot recently as their single Broken Leg has been like an ugly stadium-rock strongman in the way of every radio and video wave recently. Their album title track Head Of The Hawk takes the sound, size and vibe of Broken Leg and applies less irony, more drunk-guy choral vocals and Jerry Craib’s tasteful synthesizer work and jams it all into the radio friendly length of two minutes fourty four.

The Juice have been up down and around Aus of late, playing Splendour and many many festivals and club shows, so they should be polished on their new songs and skipping routine when they hit Sydney to launch Head Of The Hawk.  It would be an idea to get there early as the great young Sydney siders The Jezabels are opening.

Seeing as this show is on Halloween, Bluejuice would like everyone attending to dress  in the spirit of the holiday. Email photos of your costume after the event to be featured on their online gallery.
