Icons: Beasts Of Bourbon Pt 1
Tuesday, Feb 12 2013|by Patrick Emery
As the proper first incarnation of Beasts of Bourbon reconvenes for ATP, PATRICK EMERY traces that line-up’s long and crooked path, reliving it all with Tex Perkins, Spencer P Jones, Kim Salmon, Boris Sujdovic and James Baker. The Beasts of Bourbon were born of happenstance and inebriated serendipity. Originally an ad hoc musical vehicle to fill a series of gigs booked by Greg Perkins – nicknamed ‘Tex’ on account …
