PREMIERE: The Cactus Channel - Cobaw (Live)

Melburnian instrumental soul luminaries The Cactus Channel are in the midst of a run of shows in Queensland in the lead-up to this weekend's Jungle Love Festival, but for those of us not in their immediate proximity, theMusic.com.au is stoked to be premiering a live recording of the band performing their song Cobaw at The Shadow Electric back in July.

With the first two of their Qld shows in the bank — including a spot at the weekend's Mullum Music Festival — the band turn their attention to this weekend, when they head to the Miami Marketta on Friday 27 November ahead of their performance at Jungle Love on Saturday 28 November.

If you're umming and ahhing about whether to get out and catch a Cactus Channel show, the above video should provide you with all the reason you need, and then some — not to mention it should make you feel pretty bad if you haven't taken the opportunity yet, because you've clearly been missing out. And we have the video to prove it.

Stay on top of The Cactus Channel's movements as they steam into 2016 by heading to their Facebook page and drumming up a Like.
