Liner Notes 11 coming up soon at the Melbourne Writers Festival


This year, Liner Notes, a literary cabaret in tribute to a classic album, takes a lysergic road trip with Jim Morrison to scatter the ashes of the ’60s in the Mojave Desert, as we celebrate the swaggering shamanic blues of The Doors’ L.A.Woman. Featuring special guests Missy Higgins, Andy Griffiths, Ophira Eisenberg (US), Dave Graney, Doug Johnstone (UK), Jane Caro, Luka Lesson and Josh Earl, with Emilie Zoey Baker, Sean M Whelan and Alicia Sometimes, and led by MC Michael Nolan and a kick-arse live band. So, join us for the Lizard King's swansong before he ran a warm bath in Paris for the American Dream. The Regal Ballroom, Northcote, Friday 23 August.
