Biography:
The Lucksmiths were an influential indie pop band formed in Melbourne, Australia in 1993. The members are Martin Donald (Guitar), Taliesyn 'Tali' White (Vocals, Drums), and Mark Monnone (Bass) and in 2004 they acquired Mid State Orange's guitarist Louis Richter on second guitar. Whilst originating from beach-side Melbourne, the original three members of The Lucksmiths moved to inner Melbourne and fell in love with its charms. The songs Under the Rotunda, The Cassingle Revival and Tmrw Vs Y'Day all demonstrate as much.

Requiem For The Punters Club
-The Lucksmiths
(Marty Donald)
C G
Have you been drinking?
F
'Cause it's not too late to start
Dm
There's still a week
C
Before they come and pull the place apart
C G
And I was thinking
F
I have sorrows to be drowned
Dm
Too complete to contemplate
C
Without a friend around
F G
On Brunswick Street, the bits of broken glass
Dm C
Sparkle- brighter than the six or seven stars
G F Dm C
And I'm reminded
Of a Sunday afternoon
How the sunlight caught the cigarette smoke
Curling through the room
And you behind it
Your hair in rubber bands
One more for the footpath
And we walked home holding hands
F G
Like the weekenders and window-shoppers do
Dm C
We were happier than either of us knew
G F Dm C (x2)
F
So act surprised
C
It's been a while since I came calling
F
I know it's late
C
But Old Times' Sake- and all that junk
F
I'll be alright
C
We'll make tonight tomorrow morning
F
Sometimes you want to go
C
Where everybody knows you're drunk
