Mama Red & the Dark Blues

Grab your cowboy boots and get ready to stomp your feet at Lyric's Underground on Sunday, June 30, with Mama Red & the Dark Blues in a hoe-down throwdown that will light up your weekend! This upbeat showcase features the full band, including mesmerising didge-goodness, bringing a unique twist to their alt-country, country-rock, and Americana-esque sounds.

Come experience the killer all-gal harmonies and the energetic vibes of a band that messes with genres and gender stereotypes, all while staying true to their distinct ‘Aussie Gothic’ sound. Mama Red & the Dark Blues will take you on a rip-roaring journey from the bawdy depths of blues to the soulful peaks of R&B, with a healthy dose of country charm and a wink to modern pop.

Featuring the powerhouse vocals of Harry Deluxe, backed by a posse of some of the State’s most talented musicians, this full-throttle performance promises an epic experience. You’ll feel like you’ve ridden a thousand miles on a horse named Sorrow and lived to tell the tale.

Don’t miss this blend of heart, harmony, and sheer musical force at Lyric's Underground—it’s more than a concert, it’s a celebration of life’s highs and lows, all set to a soundtrack that’s as raw as it is refined. Dust off your dancing shoes, and let Mama Red cure your blues. This isn’t just any show—it’s a hoe-down where every tune is a ticket to toe-tapping, soul-soothing joy.
