Skunkhour To Perform Classic Album Live At Queenscliff Music Festival

by Paul Cashmere on August 28, 2014

Reformed Skunkhour will perform their classic debut album live at the Queenscliff Music Festival in November.

Sydney band Skunkhour formed in 1991 and split in 2001. Their debut album was released in 1993 and four albums later it was over. In 2010 Sony released ‘Essential Skunkhour’, their greatest hits although the term “hits” for Skunkhour was a bit of a stretch. The bands biggest hit ‘McSkunk’ reached no 61 in 1994.

Also added to Queenscliff Music Festival were The Little Stevies, Luluc, Stella Angelico, Skyscraper Stan and the Commission Flats, Davidson Brothers, Archer, Jordan Rakei, Karl S. Williams and Jesse Valach and Blues Mountain.

Queenscliff Music Festival is at the start of the festival season in Australia – November 28 to 30, 2014.
