What's On in Melbourne

Blair Dunlop, award-winning British singer-songwriter and guitarist, has now released 5 albums, 1 live album and toured around the globe.  All of this in a relatively short career is astounding alone but what sets Blair apart from his peers is the lyrical and musical maturity with which he writes.  His third album ‘Gilded’ was released in May 2016 on his own label – Gilded Wings – and was widely acclaimed gaining BBC Radio 2 Playlist status for the two single releases (‘The Egoist’ and ‘356’).  Prior to this Blair released his acclaimed album ‘House Of Jacks’ in mid 2014 which lived up to the promise of his 2012 debut ‘Blight and Blossom’ (the quality of which contributed to his winning the BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award).  Blair has now cemented his place as one of Britain’s most exciting talents.. 2024 Blair saw the release of his 5th studio album ‘Out of the Rain’ on his own label to rave reviews.   “this is a glorious welcome re-energised return that should comfortably reinstate Dunlop among folk rock’s upper echelons.”  KLOF Review There is so much to enjoy on this record, and repeated listens unveil level on level of depth that is richly rewarding. Here comes the summer, people, and here comes a record to soundtrack it.
