Brothers In Arms
Melbourne four-piece The Teskey Brothers are making a big splash on the blues scene. They stunned last year with their debut album, Half Mile Harvest, and listening to front man Josh Teskey’s smoked-whiskey voice over the band’s dynamite and heartfelt Motown-esque melodies, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’d time travelled to Memphis circa 1967. After an impressive sold-out stint playing across Australia, the US and the UK, the brothers are performing at Blue Smoke – a venue that so aptly fits the aesthetic of the band.

ON THE CHARGE Orana Wildlife Park’s rhino herd (including Tino, pictured, who turned 3 last month) will be getting a swanked-up new enclosure following the Park joining The Australian Rhino Project, Zoos South Australia and the Taronga Conservation Society in the fight to ensure the conservation and survival of the world’s rhino population. The partnership will see the Park working to strengthen the genetics of the Australasian population, housing more animals, and quarantining Aussie bound rhinos, as well as building an insurance population outside Africa.

The brand-new-nostalgia of the classic 50s and 60s Americana Diner 66 has been tantalising for months now with talk of their food and drink, which includes classic burgers, hot dogs, fries, specialty desserts and no fewer than 38 types of milkshake (including 8 separate chocolate varieties!) – and as you can see, they’ve absolutely nailed the look on the fit-out as well. They were about to open as we went to print, and no doubt you’ll be thinking of heading in to check them out. So a heads up: if you’re driving a car made before 1975 or have got a group with motorbikes, you can pre-book their two reserved car parks right outside.
