Interview with Augie March Ahead of NGV Friday Nights Performance
Augie March, a musical act, is set to headline NGV Friday Nights at NGV International on September 16, 2016. In an interview, the band described their sound as modern and image-laden, drawing inspiration from deadlines and creditors. They referenced Albert Tucker's artwork 'Images of Modern Evil' as a visual parallel to their music. The group mentioned a past performance at a food and wine exhibition in Oregon with Dr. John and expressed admiration for Phil Collins's song 'Sussudio'.
