New Album For Robert Forster And The Brisbane Sound

I just found this and had to spread the word.
This is the album he went to London to record just after
the 4 ages of Robert Forster concerts last year.
Rob one of the originators of the striped sunlight sound is back
and I can hardly wait to hear it.

Robert Forster has announced details of his first solo album since the 2006 death of fellow Go-Between Grant McLennan. The Evangelist, to be released on 29 April, features bassist Adele Pickvance and drummer Glenn Thompson, who completed the line-up of the 'reformed' Go-Betweens in recent years. Three songs on the new album were co-written by the late Grant McLennan. The Evangelist Tracklist: 'If It Rains' 'Demon Days' 'Pandanus' 'Did She Overtake You?' 'The Evangelist' 'Let Your Light In, Babe' 'A Place To Hide Away' 'Don't Touch Anything' 'It Ain't Easy' 'From Ghost Town' Read about it here Also I just found out about an upcoming event here in Brisbane at the Institute of modern art. The Brisbane Sound Curated by David Pestorius, The Brisbane Sound will map cross-pollination between the indie and experimental music scenes and the art scene in Brisbane during the post-punk years, 1978–1983. This multi-layered project will incorporate an exhibition, concerts and a book. It will concentrate on the role of key individuals, including Ed Kuepper, Robert Forster and Eugene Carchesio, each of whom will curate a special concert for the project. In addition to receiving international critical acclaim for their music, Kuepper (founder of The Saints) and Forster (founder of The Go-Betweens) have consistently maintained a working relationship with visual artists and the art world, while Carchesio, who is primarily known as a visual artist, is also a product of the same music/art milieu. 9 Feb 2008 Saturday, 12:00 pm Opening The Brisbane Sound. 7 Mar 2008 Friday, 8:30 pm Brisbane Sound Concert 1: Small World Experience, The Deadnotes, Ian Wadley, Peter Charles Macpherson and Gary Warner (Super-8 films), curated by Eugene Carchesio.
