Greenhouse with support Hamish Cowan (Cordrazine)

Greenhouse are excited to announce their first show of 2024 at Odeon Richmond with very special guest Hamish Cowan (Cordrazine).

Alongside the release of their debut album Centre Of The Universe, 2023 saw the band tour nationally with Happy Mondays and embark on their first UK tour playing at the Shiiine On Weekender festival (on the same stage as Miki Berenyi from Lush and The Boo Radleys) and also support The Inspiral Carpets.

Hailing from the Victorian port city of Geelong, Greenhouse first formed in 1988, comprising guitarist and vocalist Michael Robinson, guitarist Johnny Helmer, drummer Glenn Galloway, and bassist Dean Linguey.

Inspired by the likes of The Church and contemporary melodic English post-punk outfits, Greenhouse issued a handful of EPs and singles over the following years, only to split in1992 amidst discussions with famed UK label Chrysalis. In early 2020, the flame once again reignited, and the band’s official return was put into motion, reactivating and recording their long-awaited debut album against the backdrop of COVID, the process was one of both tragedy and triumph. The record that resulted, Centre Of The Universe, is a majestic piece of work that combines stadium-ready choruses, with both elements of melodic indie-rock and Britpop sensibilities, all filtered through the lens of gritty post-punk swagger. It’s progressive without alienating its listeners, it’s powerful without being overwhelming, but most importantly, it’s Greenhouse through and through.

The current version of Greenhouse - sees Robinson and Helmer joined by bassist Matthew Sigley and drummer Craig Mitchell (both The Earthmen), and keyboardist Lisa Gibbs (USER) on the live stage – is a band performingat their peak, writing some of the best songs of their career, and proving the old adage that "good things come to those who wait".
