“A midweek session of alt.country and folk at one of Sydney’s best venues, with your
heroes: Luke Collings & Greasy Lake, Mysterious Universe Band, Alister Marshall.
Music will kick off around 7:30, and given that it’s the Pony there will obviously be
an excellent selection of eatables and drinkables available.”

Supporting Luke Collings & Greasy Lake and Echo Deer. $10.
We like how the club bills this one: “Not The Usual Americana Gig: A night of alt.country that draws a little outside the lines. Three of the best and more individual bands on the Sydney scene come together to give you something a bit different, a bit cosmic, a bit funny, a bit more than sad songs about trucks (though we love those too).”
