Party Dozen’s Jonathan Boulet and Kirsty Tickle
A powerful, stirring, surging experimental postpunk but also melodic new track by the Sydney-based duo of saxophonist Kirsty Tickle and percussionist Jonathan Boulet, about the tumultuous political landscape of Queensland during the reign of Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen, highlighting the power of music and activism in the face of corruption in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. It heralds their forthcoming album, Crime in Australia, due out on 6 September 6th via Temporary Residence Ltd and follows their acclaimed 2022 album, The Real Work.
The accompanying video shows footage of the period. The songs and album was recorded, produced, and mixed the album entirely in their Marrickville studio, drawing inspiration from the area’s history as a notorious crime area.
