The Suburban Bukowskis
1/4
The Suburban Bukowskis are renowned for their upbeat, folky, funny neo-beatnik tales of failure and excess in the wild inner-west of Sydney. Their trademark story-songs are penned and played by Benito Di Fonzo, accompanied by bassist Mike Sheehan and percussionist Rich Machine.
​
In 2019, we recorded their first single 'Last Chiko Roll in a Run Down Tuck Shop'
Video conceived and directed by: Melita Rowston
Filmed & Edited by: Abram Powell
Chiko Girl played by: Romy Bartz
Filmed in and around the fabulous Dean's Diner, Newtown, NSW. Thanks to Maria, Steve and all the staff at Dean's.
