Dave Graney & Clare Moore - "In A mistLY" Album Launch
Dave Graney & Clare Moore are coming to The Vault to launch the fantastic new album ‘In A Mistly’.
Dave says – “This is the album we meant to do before Everything Was Funny. Restrictions on movement around Melbourne delayed it, but we kept the songs back that we wanted to play with our band – the mistLY. ”
“Graney and Moore have made about 45 albums together, and this is their sixth credited to Dave Graney and Clare Moore. That is a Slim Dusty-level of dedication to the craft when you consider the usual shelf life for a recording artist. And the more I play In a Mistly, the more I think this is one of the best records they have ever made.
Great songs, no one lasts without those. But In a Mistly is sonically spectacular as well, music that sounds magnificent on the headphones, through your speakers or on the radio.
The album might be a duo credit but it is a rock record, with a band playing together, pulsing with energy and surprise. They haven’t been able to do that for a while because of lockdown, and you can feel the excitement at the opportunity to do it again.
If you know anything about Dave and Clare’s music, it will make you smile, with that tone somewhere between bemused with the strangeness of the everyday and delight at still being able to write about the idiosyncrasies of the internal and exterior life.
But this is music that calls you to the dancefloor too”.
Noel Mengel – MUSIC TRUST
“Dave Graney and Clare Moore between them are golden threads that have glittered through the fabric of the antipodean indie music scene since the eighties: a constant presence in a sea of mutability and change that has delivered the most innovative and entertaining fare for aeons and helped shape and influence musical attire throughout. The dapper dress, the erudite and witty charm of Graney has always presented as one of the most enigmatic frontman in rock history, delivering his poetry with a glint in the eye and a studied style and panache, while multi instrumentalist Moore has always delivered a solid gold lustre on drums, keyboards and whatever else comes to hand”.

Jeff Lang's 2021 Book Launch
Jeff Lang has built a reputation for making startling and influential music that is accomplished, intricate, gutsy, melodic and loaded with soul. Often taking unexpected turns, he has consistently inspired his audiences by creating a stylistically diverse catalogue of over 30 albums.
But with every well-credentialed artistic soul, evolving and diving into the unknown is a step that is never too far away and so in 2019 Jeff sat down and began to write what would become his first book.“Some Memories Never Die”, the resulting memoir of three decades on the road, contains memories of gigs where the pay was akin to blood money, reflections on how the road’s twists and turns can be lightened by the presence of fellow travellers and occasionally darkened by them too. Each purchase of the book comes bundled with a download code for an exclusive 22 track album of re-recorded versions of Jeff Lang classics explicitly produced for the book’s publication.
To celebrate the book’s release, Jeff will hit the highway for a 36 date national tour running from March through to July with each show combining music with an ‘in conversation’ and Q&A session.
