After wowing crowds with their unique version of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon last year, reggae act Easy Star All-Stars will serve up Michael Jackson classics with a twist to Aussie audiences later this month.
The band will play songs from their latest album Easy Star’s Thrillah, a homage to MJ’s multi-platinum Thriller album. “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” because an extended Afrobeat jam, and “Billie Jean” a reggae dance-hall number. The album is a true work of art, but I hear the songs are even better in the live arena.
Tickets are available now for the following Easy Star All-Stars shows.
25 October 2012 – Rock Lily @ The Star, Sydney
26 October 2012 – The Hi-Fi, Melbourne
27 October 2012 – All Fruits Ripe @ Fremantle Arts Centre, Fremantle
