Event Description
Friday March 7 at The New Globe Theatre sees The Good Ship launching their single 'Sea Monster' from their critically-acclaimed third album, "The Seven Seas." They are doing it in style alongside Sydney-sider Harry Heart Chrysalis and Brisbane pals Sissybones. Come along and see what all the fuss is about and sing along with the nautical naughtiness!


Salty, scruffy, and a little salacious; seven mariners play PoCoFoCa - Porno Country Folk Cabaret. 

Let's get one thing straight: The Good Ship is a very bad ship. Drawing inspiration from fellow denizens of the deep like Nick Cave, The Decemberists and The Pogues, their pelagic folk rock charts some dark and dangerous waters, and a more mangy, cross-bred collection of influences, from gypsy to bush-band via cabaret, country and rock you’ll not hear. In the world of the Good Ship, it's the good stuff that sinks to the bottom...

 
Live, The Good Ship are a seething maelstrom of decadent musicality, with up to seven members on stage at any one time and a whole heap of archaic instrumentation from mandola, lagerphone, banjo and trumpet to accordion. This sense of joy and anarchy hasn’t been lost on audiences and after only a short time, the crew have gathered a loyal following throughout Australia.
