James Reyne @ Lizotte’s, 12 July 2008

Last night I headed out to my favourite venue, Lizotte’s, to see one of my favourite performers, James Reyne. The reasons why I love both venue and performer so much are similar: they deliver exceptional quality each and every time.
So I was in a good mood long […]

Chris Murphy @ Lizotte’s, 15 May 2008

Last night I had the pleasure of catching Chris Murphy at Lizotte’s. The last time I saw this affable singer songwriter he was singing head-to-head with the likes of Damien Leith, Dean Geyer, and Bobby Flynn. The stripped back setting of this Central Coast icon is a world away from the Australian Idol stage, and […]

Live & Cookin’ @ Lizotte’s Restaurant - Various

The Live & Cookin’ @ Lizotte’s Restaurant CD has been permanently lodged in my stereo since I picked it up at the Rick Price/Jackie Bristow show a few weeks ago. The disc features an all-Australian cast, with big names like Daryl Braithwaite, Christine Anu, Rick Price, and Richard Clapton appearing alongside Central Coast locals Mike […]

Jackie Bristow, Rick Price, and Mark Punch @ Lizotte’s – January 12

Gigs are a lot like singles really. Most of the time you’ve got your standard format: the big commercial success and the B-side. Everyone;s there for the big hit while the B-side, which may actually be very good, tends to act as a bit of padding.
But occasionally you happen upon a show that’s a double […]

Who’s the most influential artist to come out of Australian Idol? Is it Shannon Noll, whose skills saw him working with some of America’s best songwriters on his new album? What about Anthony Callea, who’s earning rave reviews for his work […]

Kaya @ Lizotte’s – July 26

Not a lot of good came from Channel Ten’s failed reality talent quest, The X Factor. The series winner’s Random, had two forgettable singles and faded into oblivion. Mark Holden embarrassed himself further. But there was a shining light in the lacklustre affair. It introduced Australia to Kaya.
These unconventional stars, with bare feet, quirky songs, […]

Ian Moss @ Lizotte’s - July 12

I admit it; I’ve still got a crush on Ian Moss. It’s been 18 years since he released Matchbook and first set my nine-year-old heart a flutter. He’s older now, with shorter hair and a few more wrinkles, but there’s still a spark about this rock stalwart. It was this spark, and the promise of […]

Where Great Food and Music Meet: Lizotte’s

If you live in Sydney, it seems there are two types of concert venues. There are the pubs, where you struggle to hear the band over the crowd who are too interested in the cheap beers and their own conversations to care about the music.
Or there are the entertainment centres, those massive structures that charge […]
