Ignation

The twist with IGNATION is who's singing. Louise, from Wales, sings material that was originally a bloke's territory and turns it into something else entirely. Behind her, Dave Lee holds down bass with the kind of groove that only comes from years of Australian pub stages, and Dean, a New Zealander, brings inventive drumming that keeps the whole thing moving. They play originals alongside a deep well of classic rock: Divinyls, The Doors, the Stones, Neil Young, Oasis, Texas. Three sets covering ground from Roadhouse Blues and Jumping Jack Flash through Dani California and Cigarettes & Alcohol to Sweet Home Alabama and LA Woman. Based at Wangi Wangi on Lake Macquarie.
