    I saw them the other night in Bangalow, NSW. They were the support band for Pete Murray who is touring Aus at the moment. I think there were more Busby Marou fans there than Pete Murray fans. The singer played a uke for one of the songs too.

    Just saw these guys again last Saturday and if you have the chance to see them, DO IT!! They are so humble and relaxed on stage. Jeremy Marou kills it on guitar and Uke and Thomas Busby is a fantastic story teller.

    They harmonise so well together and the backing band they have now is rock solid with special mention to DJ on drums/percussion.

    One of the best gigs I have seen in a long time
