The ‘Gaffage & Clink 2020’ Australian Tour will feature some of Australia’s finest singer songwriters as special guests across different shows including Ben Lee, Alex Lloyd, Emily Wurramara, Phil Jamieson and Emma Russack Band.
“Gaffage and Clink” is backstage lingo referenced in a new, yet to be released song that celebrates the relationship between the band and their long-time tour manager Greg Weaver, who passed away suddenly last year.
The Whitlams have announced that prior to the tour they will be releasing their first new music in 14 years – more details to come soon.
One of the country’s most treasured live acts, The Whitlams are frontman Tim Freedman, guitarist Jak Housden, bassist Warwick Hornby and drummer Terepai Richmond.
Over the course of The Whitlams’ storied history, they have released five platinum or gold-selling albums in a row (including the beloved “Eternal Nightcap” LP, which was voted in at #17 on triple j listeners’ Favourite Australian Albums of All Time poll in 2011). Since the release of the band’s last studio album, the gold-certified “Little Cloud” in 2006, The Whitlams have collaborated with various state symphony orchestras (including ten sold-out shows at the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall with the Sydney Symphony), performed numerous annual sold out laps of the country and released a ‘best of’ compilation.
