Mount Eerie and Julie Byrne, US double @ Theatre Royal, Castlemaine
Mount Eerie is the nom de plume of Phil Elverum, formerly of the Microphones. Mount Eerie's albums have always aimed to push into new territory, both in sound and idea, but the thread of Elverum's voice has remained constant throughout.
Julie Byrne comes to Australia in duo formation for her debut tour, performing songs from her hugely acclaimed album Not Even Happiness. Poignant and tranquil, her music is multilayered and folk inspired.
