Good Songs; Bad Luck!
Presented by Indy Clark as part of 2025 Anywhere Festival Brisbane
A career in music can be a long and winding road. For Indy Clark, it’s been like Bolivia’s el Camino de la Muerte although, thankfully, with fewer casualties. Despite the sharp turns and tight corners, Good Songs; Bad Luck! is a celebration of a musical journey, pot holes and all.
For more than thirty-five years, Indy Clark has been a songwriter, singer, and musician. His first band, 2a° (To a Degree—they thought this to be extremely witty), caught the attention of a number of labels, including Island Records. In the mid-nineties, Indy formed The Expressions and played regularly throughout London, including at such legendary venues as The Hope and Anchor, Islington and The Monarch, Camden. The band signed to Big Shot Music publishing and released a handful of singles. Not even rubbing shoulders with famous musicians, BBC Radio 1 DJs, and New Musical Express writers could prevent them from splitting up in 2000. The next decade brought many gigs, radio sessions, the release of four albums, and a move to Australia. Indy continues to write and perform, whether you want him to or not.
At the heart of Good Songs; Bad Luck! is music that deserves to be heard. These songs provide the soundtrack for a coming-to-terms-with all of those times when something didn’t happen; when the coin toss didn’t go your way, or you lost the coin, or, more often than not, some thieving swine nicked it.
