Welcome to the Band Room

Freshly landed from their tour of Tokyo, Signal Chain announce their debut 12" LP ‘Often Spring’ via Footscray Records. Come celebrate with them at this launch show, supported by Kelsey Jean & The Bad Health!

Our long-running monthly OPEN MIC returns! Come along and have a sing and/or strum. 3-6pm on the first Sunday of each month!

Magic Dirt hitting the road to celebrate 25 years since "Dirty Jeans" came into our lives - handclaps, hooks and all! From a scrappy cassette recording in a Melbourne share house, the song evolved into their first-ever charting single and a career-defining anthem.

Originally scribbled down and recorded by Adalita in 1999, then transformed with Greg Wales into the pop-grunge classic you know today, "Dirty Jeans" was released in July 2000 on their third album, "What Are Rock Stars Doing Today".

Now, a quarter of a century later, they’re taking it back to where it all began with a run of exclusive shows across Victoria, South Australia and NSW with plenty of awesome special guests to help them celebrate. Expect the faves, maybe a deep cut or two, and some brand new songs they wanna road-test on you before they head into the studio again.

Support in Beechworth will be Bendigo punk trio Relays. Tickets are $40 + booking fee in advance or $50 at the door: https://events.humanitix.com/magic-dirt-relays-tanswells

They're back! Beechworth quintet Rosy Red Cheeks play a variety of tunes that would delight everyone from the beautiful people who frequented the most posh café sociétés in the 1920s-30s to the baggy-panted fans of the 1990s grunge music scene, and beyond.

This multi-talented band create an acoustically rich atmosphere that will make ears perk up and bodies move to the groove with their unique renditions of renowned gypsy jazz tunes, quirky showtunes, and even modern pop and rock tunes.

Put on your glad rags (that's your best clothes) and shimmy on over to see Rosy Red Cheeks!

We host an open jam on the third Thursday of each month. We supply the backline (including PA and mics) so just bring your instrument and join in. All welcome!

And the theme is... MUSIC FROM TV + MOVIES! If's it's been on the silver screen or idiot box, it's fair game. Think iconic film soundtrack moments, tv theme songs, local ad jingles or some deep cut from your favourite rom com. Go nuts!

Extra jampoints for those who DRESS UP in movie- and TV-themed garb on the night too!

The Lulublues are a brand new Melbourne blues/soul/rock band comprised of seasoned musical monsters. They've just released their debut single, ‘Some Big Cat Is Toying With Me’.

The band are headed by Nic Malouf and Cash Williams (Spookyland & The Double Shadows) and backed by drummer Liam Gough (Tamborine Jesus, Tevsky Brothers), bassist Stephen Pitts (Battlesnake, Hevenshe) and keyboardist Phoebe Elsworth (King Stingray).

Drawing from the muddy, nourishing springs of traditional blues and soul and mixing in spices from all over the musical spectrum, The Lulublues walk the line between a rock-solid live performance and idiosyncratic left turns, risks and musical surprises.

Catch their triumphant return to Tanswells before they come back to the area next year for a slot at Spring Ditch! With support from Liam Wright

BMA: Baker, Mellonie & Adams. Three musical mates -- Jeffrey Baker (The Golden Rail, Blackbirds FC), Ben Mellonie (Ten Gallon Head) and Mark Adams (Cold Irons Bound) -- have been pooling and collaborating on songs from the more acoustic and melancholy end of the spectrum. So much so that they have more tunes you can poke a stick at!

One of our favourite songwriters returns to the pub: Benny Williams!

Melbourne-based musician Justin Bernasconi is one of Australia’s finest guitarists. The consummate instrumentalist delivers mesmerising performances. His acclaimed solo albums "Winter Pick" and "Barefoot Wonderland" showcased the singer-songwriter’s range of influences from classical to Americana. His latest release "Sleeping Like A Maniac" revisits his UK roots, in a collection he calls "folk Impressionism."

A festival favourite, Bernasconi draws from a deep well of influences. His compositions are informed by global, classical and indie folk traditions. Moods segue from folk balladry to rhythmic abstract urgency. Think of The Tallest Man On Earth, Erik Satie, John Fahey and Richard Thompson.

Australia’s favourite beer-fuelled legends Cosmic Psychos are back with their twelfth studio album, I Really Like Beer, on Friday November 7, and they’re hitting the road the very same day. No mucking around.

To mark the album release, the band is heading off on their most ridiculous tour yet. 42 regional dates right across Australia, kicking off in early November and charging into 2025. RSLs, pubs, halls and hard-earned beers with the local townsfolk. 

The band will be joined on drums by none other than Dan Peters (Mudhoney, Nirvana) for the first leg and that young whippersnapper BC from Dune Rats on the second stretch. One tour. Two drummers. No downtime. We dare you to find a more extensive tour in Aussie Rock history.

Tickets are $50 + booking fee in advance, or $60 at the door: https://events.humanitix.com/cosmic-psychos-beechworth
