Julia Johnson + Lily Morris + Tiernan Cady - Second Hand Wagon Tour

Why would an accomplished and serious folk songstress stand atop a 17 year old fossil-fuel guzzling station wagon and declare her tour is in honour of it?
For Julia Johnson, the silver lining of having a car crash this year was using her insurance payout to buy the station wagon she had coveted when she first started lugging music gear around and playing gigs. It has been a dream come true for her.

Throughout history, plenty of musicians have sung about how much they love their cars. Now, Julia finally gets it. But sadly nothing rhymes with ‘wagon’ so she’s just going to celebrate her beloved new set of wheels by throwing it a little celebratory tour. With a reputation for exquisite songcraft and charmingly unpredictable stage banter, Johnson will be road testing a slew of new songs from her upcoming album (which is not about cars, don’t worry).

Joining Julia at the Front:

Lily Morris
Lily Morris is a singer-songwriter based in Naarm/Melbourne penning jangly, lyric driven songs about her beloved hometown, the nuances of everyday life, and the thoughts that hitch through her head at night.
