He has released three albums to date and has toured internationally, sharing stages with legendary artists such as Archie Roach and Ben E. King, playing shows across Europe and Australia.About the AlbumThe Dark Familiar takes its title from a book by the late Irish writer Dermot Healy, whose work resonated deeply with Baxter during the writing of this record.“Dave Steel, who produced my first two albums, recommended Dermot Healy’s book A Goat’s Song. I loved it and sought out all his work – it really seemed to suit this collection of songs.”The album moves confidently between atmospheric Celtic rock and widescreen alt-country, with swirling keyboards, textured guitars and richly layered arrangements.Highlights include:‘Where Do I Begin?’ – a brooding, expansive opener with a tougher, edgier sound.‘Hickory Wind’ – an achingly beautiful take on the Gram Parsons classic, recorded with Sydney’s Steph Miller, and aired on BBC, RTÉ, ABC Country, Double J, and featured on the Rhythms magazine sampler.‘A Thousand Dreams’ – a reimagined song from Baxter’s 1997 album The Miracle Bell, now featuring a stunning vocal from Leslie Dowdall.‘Running To The Ruin (The Devil’s Song)’ – the closing track, driven by acoustic guitar and soulful trumpet from Gary Alesbrook, reflecting on human fallibility and hard-won self-awareness.Live on the NightPeter Baxter – live band setSpecial guests: Pól Ó Conghaile &amp; Eoin O’MahonyStart time: 8.00pmTickets: €10Press Praise“Baxter is a gifted singer-songwriter… an interesting and provocative interplay between two different cultures.”— Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald“Extraordinary material.
