The Poor

The Poor come to Hobart

Nearly three decades after their classic debut single ‘More Wine Waiter Please’ and album Who Cares, The Poor are back with their best album yet – High Price Deed.

The Poor – Skenie on vocals, Matt Whitby on bass, Gavin Hansen on drums, and Daniel Cox on guitar – remain rock’s ultimate road warriors. They have played around the world with AC/DC, Kiss, Van Halen, Alice In Chains and The Scorpions. “Put us in front of any crowd,” Skenie says, “and we’ll kick their arse.”

High Price Deed blazes with the ball-tearing intensity of a band just embarking on their rock ’n’ roll ride. It’s undeniably the sound of The Poor. Loud and proud. 100% Oz Rock. As Skenie states simply in ‘Cry Out’, “Be yourself.”

Supports commence 9.30pm.
