Two Shots Of Happy, One Shot Of Sad

Get ready for an emotional “wine”.  A journey in song to the bottom of the glass. There will be shots of happy together with a measure of heartache laid out on the bar. A toast to the nectar of the vine, one too many cocktails and plenty of smooth whiskey. 

The Dry Martinis have popped the cork on a carefully curated selection of songs. Lined up at the bar will be some great jazz classics, music theatre, as well as versions of contemporary songs from artists such as Lady Gaga, The Cat Empire, Mental As Anything, and Cold Chisel.

With measures of anguish and despair through to large shots of merriment and mischief, it will be sure to leave you wanting one more for the road!
