Event Description
After The Monkees disbanded, Mike Nesmith set off down his unique musical path, giving us some of the “smartest songs ever penned about cows, break-ups, and broken-down Chevys”.
Joanne, Different Drum, Listen to the Band, and Rio became huge AM Radio hits, and cemented Nesmith as a songwriter and performer with a singular take on the minutiae of life.
In Beyond the Blue Horizon, love, friendship, boredom and shenanigans are enveloped in his quirky, kooky country-rock embrace, and served up by a superb band for your listening pleasure, and pleasant bemusement.
Celebrating Mike are Australia’s pedal steel guitar maestro Michel Rose, vocalist Anje West, 3x ARIA-nominated Danny Widdicombe (guitar/vocals), The Company’s Jamie Clark (guitar), Helen Russell (bass) and Kym Ambrose (drums).
