William Crighton and Beans on Toast
Fri 13 January at 6:00 pm - 11:00 pm
$60
The Cordial Factory presents… William Crighton and his special guest Beans on Toast (UK)
William Crighton grew up in small towns around the Riverina, NSW (Wiradjuri). From tales of murder and suicide to love and euphoric conversations with ants, Crighton has released 3 albums spanning across all manner of subject matter – William Crighton (2016), Empire (2018) and Water & Dust (2022)
In 2022 William was on tour in the UK and Europe supporting Midnight Oil and The Dead South, as well as headlining his own shows and festival appearances.
And in 2023 William will be hitting the road for a run of shows including The Cordial Factory on Friday 13 January, with his old mate Beans on Toast.
William and Beans on Toast met at the UK festival Boomtown in 2018. They became mates and began playing some shows together both in Australia and the UK.
This show will feature a set from each of them, plus a few songs together. It promises to be a memorable time for all who attend!
Beans On Toast is British singer/songwriter Jay McAllister. He’s toured extensively all round the world and had released 10 albums so far. His wonderful, often optimistic songs conjure the magic and mystery of being a human.
This is a show not to be missed!
Gates and bar (cash or EFTPOS) open from 6pm and details re: catering TBC
