This September, an all-star lineup will unite under the same roof in Sydney for The JD Birthday Set, a unique performance of The Rolling Stones’ 1972 classic Exile on Main St. in its entirety.
Often cited as one of the most important albums in the history of rock and roll, Exile on Main St. is the perfect choice for a live performance tribute to whiskey king, Jack Daniel. With a total of 18 songs, the album features a mélange of musical stylings. From the gospel-blues ballad of Let It Loose to the rockabilly-tinged Rip This Joint, the 1972 classic would be no easy feat to recreate live.
Thankfully, the right people are on board. With Aussie-rock legends You Am I acting as house band, the night will feature a delightful medley of Australian talent. Joining the lads on stage will be recent success story Washington, the front-men from Jet and The Panics (Nic Cester and Jae Laffer ), Tex Perkins and Adalita ( Magic Dirt ). Also joining the aforementioned on stage will be the legendary Venetta Fields, who provided backing vocals for Exile on Main St.
The JD Birthday Set will take place on Wednesday 15th September at the Oxford Art Factory, Sydney.
