The Hovering Spooks are heading north to play the Junkyard in Maitland. Our good friends, The Autumn Hearts, are joining us for the gig and launching their great new album, Mr Sunshine. Come and join us for a great afternoon, entry is free!
Autumn hearts 3:30-4:30pm
Hovering Spooks 4:45-5:45pm
The Hovering Spooks play psychedelic-post-punk-power-pop-art-rock. The band members have been an integral part of the Australian indie music scene since the late seventies as live performers and recording artists.
The Spooks are rapidly building a following at gigs around Sydney and are about to record an album of new material.
- Bruce “Cub” Callaway - Guitar and Vocals
- Paul Larsen - Drums and Vocals
- Richard Burgman - Guitar and Vocals
- Phil Hall - Bass and Vocals
Their CVs are too long to list, but as The Barman said in his recent I-94 Bar review of The Spooks “the bands that their members haven’t played in can be accommodated on the big end of a pin ... if that’s not enough underground star power for you, go form your own supergroup.”
The Autumn Hearts blend swirling psychedelia with sun-kissed guitar pop, crafting irresistibly catchy pop songs wrapped in lush layered harmonies. With a sound that nods to the golden age of 60s psych and modern indie charm, this band turns every chorus into a singalong, and every show into a dreamy escape. If you're into jangly guitars, kaleidoscopic vibes, and melodies that stick with you long after the last note, The Autumn Hearts could be your new favourite obsession…
The Autumn Hearts' new album, ‘Mr Sunshine’, was released on Friday 20 June, 2025. The album is available for purchase at gigs or via our Bandcamp page:
