Born in a tin shed on Melbourne’s coastal fringe on a lazy afternoon, Buckley Ward were suddenly a band. Kind of like in year 9, when you kissed a girl and you suddenly had a girlfriend. The 5 piece outfit moved from a tin shed to a rehearsal space, from cuppas to lattes and from small dingy pubs to larger dingy pubs, taking with them an increasing number of devoted fans.
The band released their debut self-titled EP in the Autumn of 2008 – but far from contented, immediately set out self recording their first full length album. The result, ‘Something in the Night’, is a journey through their constantly evolving brand of carefully crafted pop.
Fashioned in the back alleys of North Carlton, the album draws on influences as diverse as Crowded House, Wilco, The Shins and Death Cab for Cutie, but stands alone as an unmistakeable and uniquely Buckley sound.

I recently launched eatnoise,
an online gig guide of planet-size proportions. You may notice my ads
over the next few weeks (including this week) in the Inpress and BEAT, and
some press coverage also in BEAT in Christie Elizier's column - plus online at themusic.com.au. All you need to do is sign up
and create a profile, and then enter your gigs. You can use the same
gig guide to promote your gigs no matter where you are, and build your audience. And it's
free.
Here's a copy of the ad that you will see. Hope you feel inclined to
join! That way, I can help support your live shows. I'll be hosting
live events throughout town in the not-so-distant future, so if you
join up - you can be part of that too if you like!
