David Bridie Live at The Jazzlab

David Bridie is one of Australia’s most prolific and respected songwriters. He has produced six studio albums with Not Drowning, Waving and seven more with beloved, recently retired group My Friend the Chocolate Cake, as well as innumerable film and television soundtracks.

David’s sixth solo album release ‘The Wisdom Line’ is an immersive multimedia project exploring themes of Melbourne, asylum, home, the transience of our relationships, and trying to make genuine connections in an interconnected world where everyone is talking on their phones. Each of the 11 tracks featured on ‘The Wisdom Line’ have been paired with a short film created by a selection of local and international filmmakers including Andrew Wiseman, Keith Deverell, Stephanie Gould (USA), and Matej Kolmanko (Slovenia).

The Wisdom Line as a live performance involves a fully curated show featuring sparse soundscapes, captivating visuals, spoken word elements and a four-piece band.
