It was a broken ankle at the age of 17 that forced Shaun Kirk into sitting still and subsequently into discovering a passion for music. Having written his first song in a hospital bed, Shaun soon realised an irrefutable feel for the blues. Since the independent release of his award winning debut album ‘Cruisin’ in 2010, Shaun has been captivating audiences across the country. With a bevy of new material, Kirk’s first full-length album, ‘Thank You for Giving Me the Blues’, sees the 23-year-old troubadour take a leap in musical maturity. The album, which offers seven original tracks and three covers including this Bo Diddley classic, ‘Who Do You Love’, has all the passion and vigour you can ask for in a contemporary blues and soul record. Topped off by a cameo performance with Australian blues legend Lloyd Spiegel and Shaun’s resilient, grinding vocal abilities, this is Kirk’s most accomplished work to date. 8pm START Ticket: $10.00 ($3.00 bf) $15 at the door if still available
