The Kransky Sisters Travels from Brisbane, QLD

In a quiet town in the middle of south east Queensland lives a huddle of strange sisters, whom, in between tending ants, knitting egg warmers, and hanging out cane toad skins to dry, travel around the country performing their popular musical shows to a growing following. This oddball musical trio marry curious real life stories with a host of uniquely homemade arrangements of popular songs gleaned from their old wireless in a highly entertaining event.

With kitchen pot, toilet brush, keyboard, musical saw, tuba, guitar and duelling tambourines these three weird yet endearing spinsters present offbeat covers of songs ranging from Nana Mouskouri and Eurythmics to Talking Heads and The Bee Gees.

The combination of the Sisters’ sheltered view of the world seen through their superbly droll comic dialogue, and alluring musical sound makes this night out with your strange old aunts an unforgettable experience.

The Kransky Sisters have been regular guests on television including SBS’s In Siberia Tonight and ABC’s The Side Show and Spicks and Specks and BBC’s Comedy Shuffle.

The Kransky Sisters | Acts

Piece of Cake

Watch out! The Kransky Sisters are bringing their brand new-baked show to town! From Abba to Pink Floyd and Beyonce to AC/DC, these three eccentric sisters with their eclectic mix of instruments including musical saw, tuba, old reed keyboard, and kitchen pots, have cooked up a very special sweet and sour serving of well known songs gleaned from their old wireless at home. Add to this, a spicy lot of stories from the sisters’ travels, and you have the icing on the cake. Hot out of the oven, these oddball Queensland sisters reminiscent of your old aunties, will leave you wanting seconds!

Topology and The Kransky Sisters

Music ensemble Topology need a tuba player for their upcoming concert. They had seen Dawn Kransky play, and ask her if she would perform with them. Dawn makes herself available for the concert, arranging to take leave of her job as trolley librarian at the Esk Hospital and also the music rehearsals with her older sisters. Mourne Kransky insists that she and Eve chaperone Dawn to this new collusion in order to ensure nothing un-toward is played by this music ensemble Topology. A musical treat!!

Three Bags Full

Having returned to Australia from their tour of the wilds of Europe, where shoes are made of wood and roads are on the wrong side, Mourne, Eve and Dawn Kransky boil up a simmering mix of music, song and stories about their naïve take on travels throughout England and Europe. During this concert they cover songs from Grace Jones and The Bee Gees to Devo, AC/DC and the Steve Miller Band.

Heard It On The Wireless

If you think you’ve heard it on the wireless, you’ve never heard it like this! Covering songs from Nana Mouskouri, Eurythmics and Talking Heads to Michael Jackson and AC/DC, The Kransky Sisters share stories of their home-life and travels throughout the deserts, cities and countryside of Australia.

The Kransky Sisters feature the enigmatic talents of Annie Lee, Christine Johnston and Carolyn Johns, as Mourne, Eve and Dawn Kransky.
