Announces FULL BAND NATIONAL ALBUM LAUNCH TOUR

With his band THE AWKWARDSTRA

With his third album Songs From The 86 Tram fresh on the shelves, The Bedroom Philosopher is teaming up with his partners in crime The Awkwardstra for a massive national album launch tour. The full band tour comes fresh off the back of TBP’s sell-out run of solo dates, both nationally and at the 2010 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. With good friends The Boat People jumping on board for support (selected shows only), make sure you’re not caught without a ticket when the tramily roles into town.

As The Bedroom Philosopher himself puts it; “my live show is both a remarkably memorable life changing experience and cause for major concern.”  An onstage blitz of devil may care comedy poetics meeting something resembling intelligent and catchy eclecticism. The Awkwardstra were handpicked from ‘Indie Snobs Anonymous’, a self-help group for displaced Melbourne musicians (feat. members of Paradise Motel & The Brunettes) and provide pitch-perfect tightness to the Philosopher’s helter skelter.  Featuring sitar, electric and double percussion – gags and wordplays play second fiddle to breakbeat rockouts, folk-rock jamouts and jamfunk breakdowns with a pinch of earnestness and about five seconds of jazz. Think Captain Beefheart meets Flight of the Whoevers.
