We were so looking forward to our gig at Wolfhound On Brunswick on Saturday 7th August. This gig had already been rescheduled due to Lockdown 5.0 and now it has had to be postponed or cancelled due to Lockdown 6.0.

Whilst deeply frustrated and disappointed there is nothing we nor Wolfhound can do about this situation.

Stay safe everyone.

Imagine sitting in a funky Fitzroy café/restaurant/bar on a lazy, late Saturday afternoon having some drinks a nibble before a party or dinner.

Now add to that scene a live band playing jazz standards but in a latin/South American flavour!

Sounds like the sweet life!!

On Saturday 7th August DBQ, normally a quintet, will be become a quartet. For one night only this amazing band will be performing jazz standards with latin grooves. This will be too cool to handle.

Join us at ‘Wolfhound’ for this hip adventure! – Free Entry!

Unfortunately the current Melbourne lockdown means that our Daimon Brunton (DBQ) gig scheduled for this coming Thursday 3rd June at Open Studio will have to postponed.

All ticket purchases should receive a full refund and most likely this gig will be rescheduled for Thursday 2nd September.

Thanks so much for supporting DBQ and Open Studio and stay tuned for new gig details and announcements!

Look after yourselves and each other.

Take care Melbourne.

The Daimon Brunton Quintet (DBQ) has almost completed recording its brand new, full-length album, ‘The Chunky Biscuit’.

It is groovy, funky and very hip. It has latin elements and dance elements but still wrapped in a modern jazz/fusion packaging.

The album also features the original ballad the band has recorded since its debut album ‘Never Again Such Beauty’ (2002).

DBQ is celebrating the recording of this album with a very special feature gig at Open Studio on Thursday 11th February. This will be an intimate performance and seating is extremely limited so please book your tickets as soon as practical via: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/daimon-brunton-quintet-feature-ticketed-event-tickets-133901201097
