THE Dead Magpies will perform tragic tales of Tasmanian folklore set to upbeat, toe-tapping, fast-dancing tunes in Port Macquarie next month.
A fledgling folkpunk/cowpunk/convictpunk band from Hobart, in less than a year they’ve build a solid following in Tasmania. In this time they’ve supported The Real Mckenzies, The Barons of Tang, The Crooked Fiddle Band and The Go Set, to name just a few.
They’ve had several songs played on Triple J, and scored feature album on both Edge Radio and ABC Local Radio Tasmania.
Three of the Maggies will fly on as an acoustic trio on Friday 18 April from 7.30pm at The Pier. Admission is free.
