We are still on the hunt for some beautiful and unique art work to be screened at gigs so if you or someone you know fits the bill then EMAIL US!!!!! Thank you to all of those who came along to our Brass Monkey gig. It was the first time we played in Cronulla and it was amazing to see so many people enjoy the show. Dane Alderson opened the night beautifully and CJ Wilson is definitely a name to remember with some amazing guitar chops! SAVING GRACE has also been given the privilege of supporting the one and only PETER COMBE! Australias first and finest children's performer - responsible for smash hits like NEWSPAPER MUMMA and TOFFEE APPLE - This is one show not to be missed! PETER COMBE is playing 3 shows over 2 days.

Thats it from us. Hopefully we can catch you at one of the sweet gigs coming up. Until then stay safe..................PEACE Monday 14th January Firstly, thanks to all of you who came along to this one. The gig felt so good and it was all thanks to the warm crowd. Before every gig we always worry that noone will come but time and time again we are proven how very wrong we are! Again, thanks for packing out the Sando and making it a very special night. SG xox Here goes: "Headlining tonight's show was SAVING GRACE and from the full house that packed the room when they went on stage, it was obvious that this bajnd has a very loyal and passionate fan base and the reason is simple: the songs are fantastic. Saving Grace are starting to get a name for themselves around town and have improved since I last saw them play to a packed Basement crowd earlier last year. The songs are there, the musicianship is there and I think there is still room for improvement; with some more hard work in the practice room, they will become even tighter." - Drum Media Thursday, January 03, 2008A massive Season’s Greetings and Happy New year to you all!
Welcome to the first Saving Grace Newsletter of 2008! We hope you all survived the festivities and are looking forward to another year full of good times and great music!
Thats all for now, for any info on upcoming gigs, head to:
We hope to catch you at a gig next week. Until then...............PEACE

Where you been????
Ahahaha I am getting very excited about the return of our singer in about a weeks time! And to go with that excitement is the announcement of a few gigs in the next couple of weeks! December 1 +++ 4-11pm. We have been invited to play at the Haven Ampitheatre in Castlecrag. It's an all afternoon mini festival in the most spectacular outdoor venue. It's also for a cause: every ticket saves 402m2 in Ecuador FOREVER. check out beatsthatgiveback.org.au for all info on the charity, the bands, tickets and how to get there. December 20th at Sonar. This is an exciting new venue at Luna Park and we are stoked to be headlining this baby. Wormholes Exist will be doing an acoustic set to start the night. Looking forward to seeing everyone again. Enjoy the sunshine wherever you may be!

And just 2 nights later (Saturday 6th of October) we will be supporting Kate Miller-Heidke (best female artist ARIA nominee!) at the Oxford Arts Factory.
We are so excited to be invited to open the night for her and she will be absolutely delightful, so even if you dont
like our stuff grab a ticket to see her (and Elana Stone who will also be featured on the night)!
Both these shows are going to be HUGE so do book early or you may miss out. ALSO .... BIG NEWS .... Sonja our sexy violinist will be away for both these gigs doing some teaching workshops in Bega so we are lucky to have Jason Tampake play the fiddle for us. He's been touring with Josh Pyke and in the few rehearsals we've had he's shown some real talent plus a great, shall we say... je ne sais quoi on stage which you will have to check out for yourself.
