Great Southern Nights presents:

Mess Esque 'Jay Marie, Comfort Me' album launch at Franks Wild Years, Thirroul.

A bold third missive from the Australian duo – Helen Franzmann (McKisko) and Mick Turner (Dirty Three, Tren Brothers) - who sound like they literally dreamed themselves into being, and perhaps might even still be in the dream! Propelling their uniquely twisted aural circus to heights of exaltation and effect, Mess Esque build out their handmade, openhearted soul into new dimensions, pushing them – and yeah, us! – into more vivid states of being.

Jay Marie, Comfort Me is their third album in less than five years, and the new music feels at least a hemisphere away from their first efforts. Jay Marie, Comfort Me is co-produced by Helen, Mick and Nick Huggins, who recorded the Dirty Three acclaimed Love Changes Everything. Also participating in the recording are Keeley Young and Kishore Ryan from the live band, as well as cellist Stephanie Arnold and a couple of Australia’s living legends of percussion, Bree van Reyk and Mick’s ol’ Dirty Three partner in crime, Jim White.

Special guests announced soon...
