DIY wotz on guide for the weekend of 11 January 2013

Two cool bands from the NT playing at the Front Bar tonight. Mark Hilton and The Two Few play country blues and beautiful sad ballads. David Garnham & The Reasons To Live have won awards for their songs fuelled by isolation and self-loathing. Twisted love, the human condition and gin feature prominently. I’ve seen them play in Darwin before and it’s sure to be a pretty chilled way to end a hot day. Small venue so get there early for 8.30 start. Tickets at the door.
