The East Pointers ‘Schoonertown’ Australian Tour at Imperial Hotel Eumundi

Adding to their volumes of East Coast myth-making, The East Pointers’ anthology of celebratory anthems and incendiary tune sets, Schoonertown, is a natural evolution of playing to ‘hometown’ crowds of thousands the world over, full family kitchen parties and an honest reckoning with heartbreak and victory. Still channeling Koady Chaisson as a writing partner, Tim Chaisson (fiddle, vocals, guitar) and Jake Charron (keys, guitar, vocals) have alchemised the love, grief and experience of years of musical map-making, traveling, partying and friendship into an album that captures heroic joy, sharp pain, courageous expansion, lonely challenges and triumphant homecoming.
