and allowed them to come through. At the same time, we allowed each of our songs to have its own personality and never tried to steer our sound into one particular direction.

“And that probably frustrated some people because there were definitely some who preferred our heavier sound and wanted us to do more stuff like that,” Nik adds. “And then there were the people who much preferred our more poppier side. But that’s just the way we were.”

the mavis’s THE MAVIS’S

By Robert Dunstan The Mavis’s, who formed in Ballarat in 1987 and went on to have great success with their second album, Pink Pills, a decade later, are now touring to celebrate the album’s 20th anniversary so we quickly got on the phone to guitarist Nick Gill (AKA Nik Daniel) and discover that he now lives in the US. “I’ve become a bit disconnected from music over the years as I now work in restaurant management,” he reveals. “But it’s funny because my wife works for a record label.

But I am looking forward to getting back into music and really, really looking forward to this tour.

“We actually do our first rehearsal together tomorrow,” Nik then announces. “Because Beki [Thomas – vocals] and I both live over in the US where she has a band called The Fascinators in Los Angeles, we’ve been doing kinda disconnected rehearsals. Matt [Thomas – assorted instruments] has been rehearsing by himself and we’ve been doing things online. But, yeah, tomorrow will be our first and only band rehearsal together before we do the tour.

“But it’ll be fine because we know the songs anyway,” Nik adds with a laugh.

The guitarist goes on to say that a 20th anniversary tour was never in any longrange plans.

“We hadn’t thought about it at all but then it all came together suddenly and pretty organically,” he says. “We got offered a spot on a festival [Stone Corner Festival] up in Brisbane so we all went back and revisited

Pink Pills and then decided to do a whole tour.”

Joining the band on bass for their anniversary tour will be Matthew Sigley, son of legendary Australian television and radio presenter, Ernie Sigley.

When The Mavis’s’ anniversary tour was “We did a big tour with Matthew’s [former] announced, many could not believe that band, The Earthmen, all those years ago,” Nik it had been 20 years and maybe that’s says, “and he also plays bass in Matt Thomas’ because their gigs were so memorable other band, Video Video. So we know him it seems like they happened “We just threw really well and have always loved much more recently. his bass playing.”

“We actually got a shock that it had been 20 years because, yeah, it seemed like it happened not that long ago,” Nik agrees. “Matt, Becky and I have maintained a close connection over the years, especially with Matt and Becky being brother and sister.

all our various influences into whatever we were doing and allowed them to come through.”

“So we’ve remained really close but the years seem to have gone past really quickly,” he adds.

The Mavis’s, who recorded a version of Jim Keays’ The Boy From The Stars for the Sample People soundtrack of 2000 and have also covered ABBA, Burt Bacharach and Duran Duran for assorted tribute and soundtrack albums, seemed to come out of nowhere and had immediate success, but Nik explains that’s not really the case.

“It may have seemed like that but we’d been around for quite a while,” Nik says.

‘For us, the success we had seemed quite gradual because we had been around for some time. But it was always something that was constantly growing and something we always wanted, but nothing we ever fully expected.

“We weren’t really the kind of band who expected to become so popular because our sound is kind of schizophrenic,” he continues. “You only have to listen to a song such as Naughty Boy and then play it alongside something like Cry to realise that. It says a lot about what kind of band we are.

“I think if we had been chasing commercial success, we would not have done that,” he laughs. “We just threw all our various influences into whatever we were doing

Nik concludes by hinting that Pink Pills will eventually be released on vinyl – pink maybe? – but says The Mavis’s have put together a new CD to coincide with the tour.

“It’s called Beaches and is made up of lots of demos,” he says. “It’s stuff that was recorded but never got released. And it’ll have stuff we recorded for what was going to be our fourth album that never saw the light of day. So Beaches is full of rarities.”

Presented by Consume/Valve, Melbourne’s much-loved The Mavis’s have announced their 20th anniversary Pink Pills tour that will bring them to the Governor Hindmarsh, 59 Port Rd, Hindmarsh, on Wednesday 9 May with tickets via the venue or Oztix and Ghyti as special guests.

“We’re floating around some ideas but may just release them as one single at a time,” Rowey says. “That way you can work around promoting that each time rather than doing an EP launch and then that’s it. Releasing a single every month or so might be the way we go.

“Each single will then also have its own character rather than just being part of a bunch of songs on an EP,” she considers. “We can drip them out one at a time and do a lot of promotion for each one and maybe do a little film clip as well.”

the tangerines THE TANGERINES

By Robert Dunstan The Tangerines (photographed here by fellow musician Ben Searcy) launched their self-titled EP at two sell out Adelaide shows late last year and are currently recording more material.

The band (vocalist Rowey G, keyboard player Shane Abbott, bass player Paul Rupinskas and guitarist Darren Zaza) are also now set to do a show alongside Kylie Brice Band and The Wisps.

“The beauty of putting something on at a pub like The Exeter Hotel is that they allow you to curate the show,” Rowey says. “They leave it up to the band to find their own supports so we actually get to do what we want.

“That’s exciting because you can often work with bands you haven’t played with before,” she continues. “And when you are promoting the show, there is also a lot of exchange going on between everybody involved about how best to work it. So you get to know everyone and also do a bit of networking at the same time.

to, especially because her band line-up is relatively new.”

The Tangerines, in the current form, have been around for a few years but the history goes back much further than that.

“It’s now all about trying to think outside of the square a bit,” Rowey adds. “At the end of the day, all we want to really do is make good music but these days, with so much other music out there, you also have to stand out.”

Rowey sees the value of having their recorded work available for purchase whenever they play however.

“The merchandising thing is something we’ve been working on but have noticed “I formed The Tangerines many years ago that you can often sell quite a – maybe close to 15 years ago “We can drip few CDs at gigs,” she says. “And now – as myself and the keyboard them out one while we are definitely not in player, Shane,” Rowey reveals. at a time and it for the money, that can be a “And since then we’ve had a great little bonus when you play. number of different people come do a lot of It helps to make it worthwhile. into our musical world and, for promotion for various reasons, leave to move each one and onto other things.

“But this version of the band, at least since guitarist Darren joined, has been around the place for about four years now,” she adds-

maybe do a little film clip as well.”

The Tangerines are currently recording new material at Wizard Tone Studios.

“We did our last EP elsewhere but the benefit of Wizard Tone is that we can all be in the same room recording together,” Rowey notes. “So it’s been a different type of recording experience. And it’s very gee whiz there and the people behind Wizard Tone are just such extraordinary people.

“For instance, Jarred Payne, is such a dream to work with,” she continues. “When you are working alongside someone who is a great musician, it makes a lot of difference. His musical knowledge is so good that you can just ask, ‘What’s not quite working here?’ and he’ll give an immediate answer. It’s all so effortless.

“You make new musical friends,” Rowey laughs. “And while we’ve worked with The Wisps before because we share a guitarist, Darren, and we like their music because, like ours, it can be quite dark and brooding at times, we haven’t worked with Kylie Brice “And it’s such a lovely studio that it’s also such a pleasure to be there,” Rowey then and her band before. suggests.

“I’ve known of Kylie for a while now but, until now, there’s not been an opportunity for us to work together,” she adds. “So that’s The singer is, however, unsure of just how they will release their new material. going to be something to look forward

“And even with doing free entry shows, it’s much more engaging to be performing to a roomful of people rather than a row of empty chairs,” Rowey adds with a laugh. “We’ve done that before.”

When he does affect another dialect it seems that he’s fond of the sounds of the Essex hard-man and the New York gangster. He tells the audience he’s been ‘Piling on the pounds lately’ (he hasn’t) and that this is due to a, ‘Cessation of the use of opioid drugs in a non-therapeutic milieu’.

This monologue leads him into Get Back On Drugs You Fat F*ck, another poem that has the audience laughing out loud.

Clarke is as sharp as a tack but every now and again the rapid pace of delivery seems to lose everyone, himself included.

It’s probably all part of his shtick. He tells a story of meeting the Dalai Lama at Glastonbury and his light-hearted take on minimalism.

Despite the humour, there’s no doubting the passion of the pieces.

Moving deliberately from the sublime to the ridiculous, Clarke proceeds to give a wonderfully cheesy plug for his merchandise.

The relentlessly obscene Evidently Chickentown, a poem that has been good to Clarke, features as the last piece of his set, before Twat and I Wanna Be Yours (adapted by Alex Turner for Arctic Monkeys’ AM album) make up the encore and finish off his evening.

“You’ve been wonderful; let’s do it again sometime.” Dr John Cooper Clarke, rambling, reciting and ranting, has delivered an hour to remember.

Exit, Johnny Clarke.
