Kirsty was joined by Alix, Libby, Corben, Holly, Hannah, Lorraine, Summer, Mikey, Fraser, Aaron and Adelene from UHI Perth. They were all outstanding. Give their page a follow for more details of the tour. ... See MoreSee Less

Melbourne 17/03/18 Melbourne you were fantastic Melbourne 17/03/18 Melbourne you were fantastic tonight! Meet local legend Big Andy Inkster. Andy has in his hands the very rare Australian release of our first single 'Harvest Home' while Mark and I have Skippy's sawn off scrotum in ours. I can honestly say that this is the first time someone has actually bought me a body part. Not sure what I will keep in it though, maybe some plectrums or used bus tickets. Maybe some of you good people could come up with some suggestions. That is all.
Well that's it - 7 gig's played to 7 great crowds Well that's it - 7 gig's played to 7 great crowds in Germany over the past 7 days. Thanks a million to all the fans over here who turned out despite the atrocious weather conditions - special shout out to those who traveled here from overseas!!. It's been a tough one, but it's been an unforgettable blast -Scott Whitley
