VulgarGrad Vs The Band That Knew Too Much

It’s the cold war all over again, except this time it’s HOT! It’s Russia vs. Australia this Friday, February 20 at the Spot in Melbourne.

In the red corner (with a hammer and sickle scribbled out) is VulgarGrad. Playing songs from their upcoming album King Of Crooks, VulgarGrad have won many a brawl in the gulags of Siberia and the mean-streets of Moscow. Fronted by Australia’s most formidable stage and screen actors, Jacek Koman (Children of Men, Moulin Rouge, Romulus My Father), if you turn your back on them, their vodka-drenched songs of felony and misdemeanor will knock you straight to the ground.

In the blue corner (with a few stars and some red and white stripes) is The Band Who Knew Too Much, veterans of sweaty pub fights all over this brown land. Their Aussie songs of beer-drinking and rent-spending hit as hard as woodchopper’s axe.

Officiating the fight is DJ Russian Disco, who makes no attempt to hide his allegiances – he knows the Aussies don’t need any help on their home turf.

Doors open at 9pm, tickets are $12 on the door.

Advance copies of VulgarGrad's brand new CD King Of Crooks will be available at the gig with the official CD launch happening on April 4 at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne.
