Mark Curtis And The Flannelettes

Compelling songwriting with quirk, delivered by a fun, alt country, string band from Adelaide, South Australia Kaurna Yerta Drawing influence from artists such as Wilco, Gillian Welch, The Beatles and Daniel Johnston, Mark Curtis has a gift for channelling the inner world in a way that is identifiable to any listener. He communicates the fragility of being human, while keeping a necessary playfulness. Drenched in harmonies, vulnerability, cynicism, longing and humour, complemented perfectly by Bonnie Aué and Michael Hutchison on upright bass and drumkit respectively, Mark Curtis and the Flannelettes are a fresh take on an old story. “A band that gets the party started, keeps the party going and ends the party in the best way, Mark Curtis and the Flannelettes are deliciously addictive and delightfully engaging. They are the perfect mix of fun, energetic and extremely professional. If you want talent, they’ve got it in spades.” - Libby Trainor Parker "During sound check we thought someone had put a record on, I just wanted to hear more and more." – Felicity Urquhart "Mark Curtis and the Flannelettes bring tonnes of witty banter and fun, indie folk-rock jams to the space. Their songwriting is compelling and clever, and locals might recognise some favourite spots in the lyrics." – Scenestr
