The new PAT TODD & THE RANKOUTSIDERS’ album Sons of the City Ditch is highlighted as usual by Pat Todd’s fantastic songs. A prolific writer with an eye on life in the margins – whether they be in small towns or the big sprawling city he has called home for 40 years – Todd routinely hits the mark where youth and the advancement of age find common ground in alienation and willfulness. Pat knows that rock’n’roll is not necessarily a young person’s game, and nor is it a glamorous one; the name he gave this band accurately points to where he and they are coming from. New originals like the new single ‘All We Have To Show’, the horn-riffing rocker ‘Living In A World of Hurt’ and the raucous country-folk punker ‘Goodbye to the World’ are up there with anything he has ever written. And the band is a powerhouse – their strengths are evident in the way they handle choice covers of JEFF BECK’s 1967 hit ‘HI HO SILVER LINING’ and DAVID JOHANSEN’s 1978 heartbreaker ‘DONNA’.
PAT TODD will be touring Australia solo, appearing at Geelong’s River Rocks Festival and at the Cosmic Psychos 40th anniversary weekender in Castlemaine, and in a double-bill with MAD MACKA from The Cosmic Psychos and The Onyas in November and December 2023.
