They'll be playing material from their forthcoming album, Out the City Gate.

Tim Freedman and Ollie Thorpe’s acclaimed piano and pedal steel duo is the perfect vehicle to strip back Whitlams’ repertoire and deliver classics like No Aphrodisiac and Blow Up the Pokies in a distinctive, poignant atmosphere.

The Whitlams Black Stump

This intimate show will also serve to present new material, as the pair preview songs from the impending debut album of Freedman’s new Americana group – The Whitlams Black Stump. The 14 track long player, Out the City Gate, is due for release in February 2024.

The Whitlams Black Stump’s recent singles, The Day John Sattler Broke His Jaw and No Aphrodisiac (Black Stump), have been staples on Australian country radio over the past year. Anticipation is building for the album now two years in the making, and being produced by multiple Golden Guitar winner Matt Fell.
