The Gin Club choppin’ woodaround Australia

Thu 14th Oct, 2010 in Local News

Choppin’ Wood, the third single from The Gin Club’s album Deathwish was written by three members of the nine-piece group; a rarity. To celebrate, the band is heading out on tour with a national run of gigs including a boat cruise on the Brisbane River with space for 100 lucky punters.

The recently released fourth album Deathwish is perhaps the band’s most cohesive to date: a short(er) collection of traditional rock tracks, the album embodies hints of country, folk and blues to again create that quintessential Gin Club sound.

The band has plenty of new material to treat fans to, as the band’s Ben Salter recently told FL “we didn’t want to do a double again. Even though we had enough songs to probably do another double, we probably just couldn’t afford it”.
