In 2010, when Ballarat darlings Epicure announced they would be parting ways, Rhythms Magazine asked frontman Juan Alban about his 14-year journey with the band. He replied: “… We’ve been lucky in that we’ve been able to release four albums exactly the way we’ve wanted them to be and we’ve been privileged to tour them around the country many times over. And I’m really proud that the band got better as it went along. So, in that regard, I guess it was long enough for Epicure … most bands get far less.” Well, it looks like there is a wee bit more to come. The Karova, Ballarat – May 16. The gig is in support of the first-time vinyl release of The Goodbye Girl, courtesy of local label Heart of the Rat Records.
