A national pop-up tour of independent record stores across Australia, celebrating the release of Louder Than Life: The Touring Musician’s Handbook. Featuring a live performance by The Lyrical, a conversation about life on the road with author Emily Rockit, The Lyrical and David Dean from Hostile Entertainment, and book signings at Old Ambulance Station, Nambour. Free event.

Triple J’s Nkechi Anele describes The Lyrical as “reminiscent of old school John Butler Trio with the awareness of Black Eyed Peas’ ‘Where Is The Love?’” Scene Magazine puts it simply: “When it comes to writing, well, he’s not called The Lyrical for nothing.”

Louder Than Life is Emily Rockit’s debut book: a story-driven guide to touring featuring real experiences from 30+ Australian musicians. emilyrockit.com
