House of Blues - Tues Apr 23rd

BLUES JAM NIGHT

Feature act: SPOONFUL

SPOONFUL are celebrated regulars across the live music scene in Melbourne, clocking over 21 years together as a band. With their sound wholeheartedly embracing rhythm and blues, soul and rock'n roll, Spoonful – featuring Paul Winstanley on Bass, David Lord on Keys/Vocals/Harp and brothers Andre and Kit Warhurst on guitar/vocals and drums/vocals respectively – now mine their wealth of collective experience to create something that is uniquely their own.

Formed originally as a fun, party offshoot of Manic Suede in the early 90's, Spoonful happily ticked along in the background while members concentrated their individual efforts on various projects. Andre fronted Silver Night Drive, played slide guitar on Jet's debut record and collaborated with Kram on the Spiderbait frontman’s solo project. Currently, he plays in both the Claire Bowditch and Chris Cheney bands. Kit is part of seminal Melbourne band Rocket Science as well as being a music composer for various film and TV projects and Dave played keys in The Rectifiers. Paul moonlights as a fireman so he's often distracted by the need to save random people's’ lives.

With Spoonful serving as something of a musical "home base" amid their various individual musical travels, it is probably that lack of a focused spotlight that has led to the bands remarkable longevity. The number of people who have witnessed a Spoonful live show over the years is nothing short of amazing. That they come back again & again is testament to the songs, the sounds, the authenticity of the bands shtick and the flat out great performances. Over their incredible 21 year journey, they have developed into a rusted on gem of the Melbourne music scene. With four full length albums to their name, Spoonful are in the kind of shape many other bands can only dream of. For Spoonful, the thrill hasn't gone. In fact it just keeps getting better.
