ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG Set for The Butterfly Club Next Month

Brisbane's cabaret darling lands in Melbourne with her kick-ass three-piece band (and a bottle of JD in hand) to deliver the show you can bring your Dad to. For once, he might know the music.

ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG, in its Melbourne premiere, will have you ordering another round to toast the ghosts of Rock 'n' Roll from 8-12 July at The Butterfly Club.

Together with celebrated composer and arranger, Shanon Whitelock, of OPRAHFICATION (winner Melbourne Short+Sweet Cabaret Tour Ready Award and Melbourne Cabaret Festival Excellence Award, 2012, New York Musical Theatre Festival, 2014) Jessica and her band celebrate and re-imagine some incredible songs, and tell the stories surrounding the artists' demise and deaths - some of which will surprise you.

With a kick-ass funk-soul-rock groove and a track list for your next road trip, ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG is powerful, uncanny and really celebrates those taken too soon to that "great big band in the sky". There's Janis Joplin and Southern Comfort, Jimi Hendrix and the ice-skater, Brian Jones and the Kamikaze Tequila shot...

Fresh from a knock-out engagement at the Brisbane Powerhouse, as a part of the Queensland Cabaret Festival, Only the Good Die Young opens at The Butterfly Club on Wednesday the 8th of July and runs for 5 nights. Bookings recommended.
