HAPPY FRIDAY, Y’ALL.
I hope you’re all ready to simultaneously get fired up and have your guts ripped out, because today’s ‘Like A Version‘ is an absolute pearler.
Coming at the end of one of the toughest weeks the Tasmanian city of Launceston has endured in a many a decade, local-boys-done-good Luca Brasi dropped into the Triple J studios this morning to lay down some froth.
Circling the absolutely iconic, bittersweet Paul Kelly Christmas hit “How To Make Gravy,” Brasi manages to keep the constant-crescendo and non-traditional song structure of the original, whilst driving it up into a raucous, sweaty, arm-in-arm singalong; one that deadset needs to enter their regular setlist toot suite or I will legit flip it.
The song is an Australian institution, and the Brasi boys absolutely do it justice – and then some.
Don’t take my word for it, hit play and get ready to feel some shit.
How’s that A+ little shoutout to Luca Brasi’s current tour-mates The Smith Street Band too? You beaut!
The boys: Get around them.
