The View From Here #25: Jack Davies & The Bush Chooks

- RTRFM's long running video series The View From Here returns in 2018 with a set of WA bands playing their music in unique WA locations.
This time we take you to the inner city as Jack Davies and the Bush Chooks camp themselves inside the iconic and heritage listed Luna Palace Cinema.
A cinema since 1927, Luna Leederville is a bastion of the weird and wonderful, the home of cult movies and modern classics. It's art deco facade is matched by a over worldly interior, harking back to a by-gone era in the heart of bustling Leederville.
Jack Davies is the perfect band to seek tranquility amongst the famous red chairs. Jack and his band, featuring five of his best mates run through four songs with a laid back, story telling nuance that is hard to describe. Think Peter Bibby, Courtney Barnett and Paul Kelly wrapped into one, telling stories of life in Fremantle, life in Perth and life in a changing country.
His band sits behind Jack's voice perfectly, complementing his story telling drawl with melody driven, rhythmic songs. Their talent is extraordinary and their songs sit inside your brain well after the music has ended.
SET LIST:
Vegemite Sandwich
Rosemary Mushrooms
Cleaning The Dishes
Dear Priminister

This band deserves a lot more attention, Australian poetry
That line "how can I love somebody til I learn to love myself " classic
Discovered jack and his band last year, he writes some of the most heart wrenching, real lyrics out of every songwriter I’ve listened to. There’s not a single song (even on soundcloud) that i haven’t loved. He’s a special talent, and id Recommend anyone who likes this set to take a deep dive into his music. It is well worth your time x
Amazing Talent!
Just saw these guys yesterday at the nannup music festival and they were absolutely AMAZING
My 2nd favourite band (after Pearl Jam) & my favourite local band. Jack is such a powerful poet & a really nice guy 👦 👏 ❤ 👌
so good, so good, so good- I listen to this about once a week!
Great band...we just had a little chat with Jack after his performance at the Fringe in Freo...he's a nice guy.
Wonderful! A WA treasure is young Jack 👌
This is insane. Just so bloody nice
This is really impressive! What a great band and what brilliant songs. Lots to be proud of here!! We look forward to seeing you guys play at The Beer Farm real soon!!
Can't get this out of my head. Fabulous performances at Nannup...We were all 15 once...without Dutton (lucky us)...Luv 'em!
Likewise favourite band of Nannup 2019.
Sensational ...very moving Great job by the chookas !!!
The last tune is a Dylan-esque killer. Reminds me a bit of Ballad of a Thin Man.
