Информация об исполнителе
The Large Number Twelves rarely gig outside of St Kilda, but they play every gig like it's a 50,000 capacity crowd at Madison Square Garden – even though it's only to 100 people at the front bar of the Greyhound Hotel.
Named after their favourite pizza, the band write classic country rock songs full of lovely melodies, catchy choruses and Charlie Owen's stunning guitar work. The writing of brothers Chris and Wes Harrington can be so good it's easy to assume that songs such as All the Boys, Give a Little Love and When I Was a Boy are Tom Petty or Bob Dylan covers.
But their subjects are much closer to home: the junkies, dealers and war veterans walking around Melbourne's streets and the gentrification of their beloved St Kilda. Recorded live in Melbourne and Adelaide, it also features Spencer P. Jones' classic Sailer's Grave done in a sea shanty style.
These guys are probably too rough around the edges to ever come close to playing a stadium, but when Chris sings: "why did you change/chasing the safety of the mainstream" you get the feeling he wouldn't have it any other way.
