With a few stories, an old guitar and kick drum, Tony J King creates the music of a journeyman with roots in the street-corner blues and urban folk of yesteryear.

At the height of the pandemic, while the rest of us just went mad, Multi-instrumentalist and producer Simon Pearlman took a few recent backing tracks and bunkered down to put the finishing touches to the much anticipated fourth AMCS album, ‘Timebombs in the Sea”, finally reaching Melbourne ears as the live scene returned last year. After touring the album locally with the band, Simon is now playing raw, expensive solo sets across Victoria and beyond. And there's plenty more songs to come!
