Mama Red & the Dark Blues

Soaked in sin, fueled by gin, and on their way to high tea with the devil.

CANCELLED - Mama Red & the Dark Blues - The Ellington Jazz Club 2020

  • The Ellington Jazz Club 191 Beaufort Street Perth, WA, 6000 Australia (map)

Mama Red & the Dark Blues are back in 2020 and full of fun and fancy. With new songs to share and a new album in the making, they’re ready to blow the roof off!


Join Harry Deluxe and her siren songstresses for an evening of songwriting stripped bare where we will unpack the raw passion and emotion that culminated in Mama Red & the Dark Blues’ debut album, The Wages of Sin – and the new upcoming album, Long Way to Redemption.

Let Mama put the sizzle in your summer evenings with some heavy Australian gothic new-folk harmonies and a heaping helping of country inspired ironic pop. If you’re lucky, they may even throw in a soulful special guest to thrill you.

Join Mama Red & the Dark Blues for their first Ellington Jazz Club performance for 2020!
