Risen from their whiskey fuelled haze, five bastard sons of Johnny Cash and Gram Parsons descend to deliver the good folk of the shire a reprieve from the drudgery of yet another quiet night down the local.
And upon the five was bestowed the name Thujone, inspired as it were by the lost ear of Vincent van Gogh: late of Main Arm.
Armed with the music of the rural working class Thujone deliver tales of love, loss, lust and retribution wrapped up in bitter-sweet country ballads and foot stomping cow-punk numbers.
y0 Jase, up for a home game of poker? pencil in the first weekend in september at this stage ... possibly the week after, will be at a beach house in new brighton - no, not oods ;-)
3 thujone songs on the mp3. com. au country rock charts reach no1, no2, & no3, respectively. Thats really special. You guys sound great. Just love Jasons raspy voice.Definitely the sound of a major act.
Victory! At last! The scum are running into the hills like frightened pigs. WE'll be waiting with pitchforks and grins to clean em up and send em back to mama ...
