    Event description


    Karma County – Last Stop Heavenly Heights 25th Anniversary Tour


    Karma County’s debut album was released on Kansas, USA based label Laughing Boy in 1996. Arriving on stage in those early days around Sydney with just a snare drum, acoustic guitar and  double bass, the band foreshadowed the acoustic roots movement that has become an essential  element of contemporary Australian music with songs like the evergreen Postcard. Since those  small beginnings they have waltzed their way into the hearts and minds of music fans, and  critics, all over the world. 

    They went on to release four more celebrated studio albums and one double album  retrospective, including ARIA nominee Olana (1999), and ARIA winner Into The Land of Promise (2000). They played house concerts, pubs in the bush, the Sydney Opera House, and  international festivals like WOMAD Auckland, WOMAD Reading, WOMAD Seattle and more. And occasionally doubled up as the backing band for their late friend and mentor, legendary  singer Jimmy Little, in Australia, Europe and North America. 

    The three founding members – Brendan Gallagher voc/guitar, Michael Galeazzi bass, & Stuart Eadie drums – head out on the road again to play Last Stop Heavenly Heights in full, and some  other much loved songs from their unique songbook. 

    Good music lasts forever
