Thirsty Merc is going out on tour the way tours used to be done. They are going everywhere.
Celebration 2022 will see Thirsty Merc take in 23 shows for Western Australia to New South Wales including South Australia, Queensland and Victoria over July, August and September.
The ‘Celebration 2022 tour supports the new Thirsty Merc album ‘Celebration’ featuring their covers of some well-known and not so well know Australian songs. The first taste of the album is a cover of Daryl Braithwaite’s ‘As The Days Go By’.
The album also features Who Listens To The Radio (The Sports), That’s When I Think of You (1927), Bad Habits (Billy Field) and Hey There, Georgy Girl (The Seekers).
Merc Frontman Rai Thistlethwayte says: ‘It’s been an extremely rewarding experience for us to explore some of the best Aussie songs on the new album. Perhaps the biggest celebration, though, is for all live music fans. After a few crazy years, we’re all still here together. Gigs are back…and we want to be there to help you let your hair down!’
