The Thin White Ukes perform the songs of David Bowie with love and harmony.
The glamorously attired Melbourne trio travels six decades deep into the great art-rock visionary’s songbook of smash hits and astounding obscurities, each lovingly reassembled for precision acoustic strings and three-part vocal harmony.
They have since entranced audiences from cabaret lounges to folk festivals; outback pubs and clubs in every state and territory of Australia and as far beyond as mainland China.
The Thin White Ukes' high passion, mellifluous musicality and stunning attention to detaililluminate Mr Bowie's beloved back catalogue with rare invention, an act of homage befitting their hero's relentless quest for adventure.
Put on your red shoes.
They’ll be floating in a most peculiar way.
