Considered “one of the unheralded greats of the Melbourne music scene,” Eugene Hamilton and his star-studded band The Money are wrapping up the year with a funk-fuelled festive spectacular, and this time, they’re returning to their spiritual home in St Kilda: the iconic MEMO Music Hall.
Squeals erupted, feet started moving, and someone somewhere popped a party popper. Eugene was coming home, and Bayside knew it.
Think of it as a funky, feel-good holiday feast. Your favourite songs, re-gifted, re-wrapped, and reborn with that unmistakable Eugene Hamilton magic.
This isn’t just covers - it’s an outrageous seasonal spectacle. Mixing styles and sounds into one glorious, genre-bending tinsel tangle. Expect a funkified, countrified, Latin-soul sleigh ride.
From velvet-smooth ‘60s soul to glittery noughties pop bangers, every track gets the full Eugene treatment -twisted, teased, and turbocharged into something gloriously unexpected. It’s an all-in, high-octane celebration of sound that’s equal parts groove, glitter, and good times. You’ll leave sweaty, smiling, and wondering how Christmas ever existed without it.
Backed by six of Melbourne’s finest musical mischief-makers, Eugene Hamilton & The Money are the crème de la crème of the music scene. A band of seasoned players serving up serious chops with a side of cheeky charm.
