Slim Krusty

If you are looking for something a bit different to do on a Wednesday evening, Slim Krusty is playing at The Folklore Rooms on May 20, 2026. For those who haven't come across him yet, he is an Australian singer-songwriter based in Melbourne, known for a folk-punk style that leans heavily into a DIY approach. His music tends to be quite introspective, and he has built a reputation for being honest and raw in his performances rather than relying on the usual industry polish. It is the kind of show where the focus is really on the connection between the artist and the room.

He has been gaining some traction with releases like his 2024 album Endin On a High and the track Sleep Doesn't Write Back, which give a good sense of the energy he brings to the stage. Folklore Sessions is presenting the night, and the venue itself, located at 12 North Street, is a familiar spot for those of us who frequent the local live music circuit. The doors are set to open for a 19:30 start, and it is worth noting that this is an 18+ event.

Regarding the logistics, tickets are currently priced at £14.10. As with most things in the city, it is always a good idea to keep in mind that prices can fluctuate, so checking the official channels before you head out is the safest bet. It feels like a solid option if you are in the mood for a low-key, guitar-driven set in the middle of the week without the usual noise of larger venues.
