Al Matcott & The Forever Band
With Maggie Alley
Railway Hotel Fitzroy North (Fitzroy North, VIC)
Friday, 24 April 2026 7:30 pm
The poet laureate of the doomscroll.
Al Matcott’s debut album ‘Summer’s Coming’ was a full throated howl against global warming and the forces behind it. With caterwauling guitars, driving rhythms and incisive lyricism, it garnered a Double J feature album.
His follow up ‘Fake The Days Away’ dialed down the distortion but keeps his memorable melodies and pulls no punches as he turns his gaze to our digital lives.
Uplifting stuff.
Maggie Alley and her band blend dark folk with raw rock energy, creating a sound that’s as haunting as it is powerful. With intricate instrumentation and lyrics that delve deep into life’s shadows, her music tells stories that stay with you long afterwards. Her unique blend of gritty folk and atmospheric rock creates a mood that’s both intense and electrifying.
THIS SHOW IS STRICTLY 18+
The Railway Hotel strives to create a safe space that everyone can enjoy.
Crowd surfing & dangerous behaviour will result in removal from the venue.
