Culture Club is proud to present legendary Australian musician Mick Harvey, for the first time to Dundalk, for a special concert with Amanda Acevedo at the Spirit Store on Sunday September 14th, 2025. This show will be the final part of ‘These Are the Waves: A celebration of the music of Conway Savage’, a three day festival to honour Conway’s legacy and his connection to Dundalk. Mick was Conway’s bandmate for 18 years in Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and he also played on Conway’s first two solo records.
Mick Harvey is renowned as a Musician, Record Producer and Composer who has been active for the last 45+ years and is perhaps best known as a member of The Birthday Party and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and for his long-term collaborative work with PJ Harvey and Nick Cave. Aside from scoring 10 feature films and numerous short films and documentaries, split almost evenly between Australia and Europe, Harvey has also released 10 solo albums in the last 2 decades and been the recipient of several Australian Music Industry Awards. He won the AFI Best Original Score for ‘Suburban Mayhem’ in 2006 and in 2011 took out British Producer of the Year for his (co)production on PJ Harvey’s ‘Let England Shake’.
This is Mexican artist Amanda Acevedo’s second project in collaboration with Mick Harvey. After spending 2020/21 studying film in her hometown of San Luis Potisí, Acevedo teamed up with one of her heroes to create a thematically rich collection of duets and continues that work into 2025 with this new release. She is currently studying and working in Melbourne, Australia.
‘Golden Mirrors: The Uncovered Sessions Vol. 1’ is the new album by Harvey & Acevedo. It follows the duo’s 2023 release ‘Phantasmagoria in Blue’ and Harvey’s 2024 solo outing ‘Five Ways to Say Goodbye’.
