The Yearlings & Lucie Thorne

The Lost Ones Basement Bar, 14 Camp St, Ballarat Central, VIC 3350

Lucie Thorne & The Yearlings bring an intimate double-bill concert to The Lost Ones Basement Bar.

Lucie Thorne has earned her place as one of Australia's most striking contemporary songsmiths. With eleven releases to her name – including her latest LP Everything Sings Tonight – and a prodigious touring schedule, Thorne continues to carve out an extraordinary creative career. Thorne conjure "exquisitely impressionistic… poetry in motion" ( Rolling Stone) with an intimacy and warmth for which her live shows have become so renowned. "A demonstration of power through grace and subtlety. World Class." (Roots Down) "Atmospheric, innovative… brilliance" (Sydney Morning Herald).

South Australian sweethearts The Yearlings make music that exudes raw beauty, honesty, intimacy and passion, and have built a reputation for their evocative songwriting, keen harmonies and mesmerising live performances. With Parkinson's signature guitar tones and Chalklen's hypnotic prose, The Yearlings deliver tunes with a confidence that carries an addictive fragility. Quiet, intimate, raw and powerful, they produce a new strain of acoustic music, distilling Americana alt. country through the filter of distinctly Australian life.
