Odeon Richmond proudly presents a truly unique evening: Bruce "Cub" Callaway with special guest Penny Ikinger.
Bruce has had a significant influence on Australia's independent music scene for 40 years. Tonight, he shares never before heard stories and recorded live material traversing his journey. He will also show never before seen images from his private archive of his journey showcasing his contribution to all of the artists with whom he has played, produced and recorded.
Bruce will play two sets of tunes demonstrating his legacy. He will be joined by his long time friend and special guest, Penny Ikinger, fuzz queen, sonic chanteuse and primal mistress of rock who defies easy comparison and definition. Penny will interview Bruce and our guests are also invited to participate in the Q & A. The cherry on top tonight will be Bruce and Penny duetting on some much loved Australian anthems.
