 When the Tiger Lillies play Eastern Europe and Russia, they are billed as a rock band. People dance. When they play America, the scary make-up-wearing trio is sold as a Halloween act, as if it were an accordion-powered Slipknot.In Australia? "We're a cabaret band!" says Martyn Jacques, for 30 years the Tiger Lillies' leader and principal songwriter. Returning to Australia for the first time since 2010, the band's new show, The Very Worst of The Tiger Lillies, draws on three decades and more than 30 albums of richly idiosyncratic, influential and downright dirty work. "We're often packaged as 'dark cabaret'," Jacques says with a sigh. The Very Worst of the Tiger Lillies is at the Sydney Festival's Famous Spiegeltent, Hyde Park North, until January 17. |
