Celebrating the digital release of his new record, I Think I Know For Sure, Steve Balbi will perform an exclusive show with his full band – one night only – featuring songs from his new record, alongside reimagined out-takes, hit picks and favourites from a colourful catalogue of words and music that includes Noiseworks, Electric Hippies, 1980s new-wavers Mi-Sex, and more.
The COVID takedown has meant many things to many people. For the creative chameleon, Steve Balbi, it was time to peel-back yet another layer of skin to reveal an entirely new pigment – an iridescent sunburst that is orange in colour, melody and tone – taking time in his home studio to compose a new fabric of songs, I Think I Know For Sure. It is out now on CD and Limited Edition 12” vinyl.
