The nomadic troubadour announces a string of shows for Australia in December.

Cass McCombs returns to Sydney with an intimate show at Newtown Social Club, which will follow new albumMangy Loveslated for release on Friday August 26.

Understated, efficient, wandering, wondering, socially-conscious – with such deliberate descriptors, we might even be doing disservice to the wonderful talents of McCombs, a musician who ranks among North America’s very best singer-songwriters. Driven by an instinctive approach to lyricism and resistant to the trappings of permanence – he’s reflective yet reactive – McCombs is airing out his material in what promises to be a special show, in an intimate, spontaneous context best suited to his musical stylings.

Cass McCombs will play at the Newtown Social Club in Sydney on Tuesday December 6. Tickets are now available fromTicketScout.
