Under the watchful eye of award winning songwriter Ewan Cloonan, The Humbuckin’ Pickups are a raucous mob, giving their all for Ewan’s songs about Australian characters he’s known, characters he’d like to be and the vengeful things he’d like to do! Having achieved the dizzy heights of being one of Melbourne's four best ‘never-weres’ in the 2013 ABC Exhumed competition, they’ve been taking their award losing performance to the people ever since. In the last few years the Humbuckers have played Festivals, folk clubs, pubs and anywhere they can hold an audience long enough with out being arrested. Not quite sure whether they’re the folk side of country or the country side of folk, The Humbuckin’ Pickups will have you hootin’, hollarin’, foot stompin’ and occasionally sobbin' into your pint glass.
