Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds

An eager crowd imbibed all they could of eclectic legend Kid Congo and his latest outfit, The Pink Monkey Birds (with special guest Mick Harvey on bass).

"Pure experimentation... mixing elements of spaghetti western, surf rock and garage rock with the moody aura of a song from the 'Twin Peaks' soundtrack."

"It's just three chords and a couple of people but it really sounded like heaven and outer space at the same time."

“A delightfully good time."

"Kid Congo is smartly dressed in what seems to be a suit with silver-painted stripes complete with bearskin hat and a dandy crooked smile."

"The good thing this time was that we weren't afraid to try old things, because a lot of the time you don't want to repeat yourself."
