Contrary to what the name suggests, Doc Halibut are actually a five piece band (two guitars, hammond, bass and drums), rather than your local practising G.P.
The band’s music sits somewhere between Rhythm and Blues and Country/Rock; where the styles of Ry Cooder may meet The Band or perhaps the Stones and Van Morrison. Doc Halibut themselves have ironically described their sound as “regressive rock”, but however it may be categorized, it’s music and it gets the toes tapping.
Based in Melbourne, Doc Halibut regularly perform around town as well as at festivals and venues all around the country, and with a busy year of gigging in store and preparation well under way for an album launch in the later half of the year, there’s much to look forward to.
