About this concert
Approximate Running Times: Doors - 7:00pm Start - 8:00pm With their twelfth studio album LATE DEVELOPERS adding to an already beloved catalogue of music, Scottish indie-rock icons BELLE AND SEBASTIAN will be bringing it all to Australian fans on a long-awaited tour of the country this August. The release of LATE DEVELOPERS, coming hot off the heels of their 2022 album A BIT PREVIOUS, showcased Belle and Sebastian's continued sense of artistic growth and songwriting talent. A band who has consistently remained in sync and rhythm with each other, and a core creative vision, Belle and Sebastian's current oeuvre has been a joy for longtime and new fans alike to be absorbing.

Badly Drawn Boy Biography
Badly Drawn Boy is an independent singer-songwriter, born Damon Gough October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family returned to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam And His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough. This was then laminated and given out to friends and people at clubs in Blackburn and Manchester.
His 2000 album The Hour of Bewilderbeast won a prestigious Mercury Prize. He also composed the soundtrack to the movie "About A Boy" (starring Hugh Grant), based on the Nick Hornby book of the same name. His third album, Have You Fed The Fish?, was released in 2002. One Plus One Is One, his fourth album, was released in 2004.
"Born in the UK", his fifth album, was released on October 16, 2006. It is a nod to one of his major influences, Bruce Springsteen.
