Rave Mag - "Playing some of the dirtiest blues in the business, ex-Sunshine Coasters The Blackwater Fever couldn’t be more at home than here in the grand ole’ Tivoli, playing in support of the world’s premier exponents of the blues-duo genre. They grind through a short set including the faster Blackwater and finish with a palpable anger in Better Off Dead." Time Off Mag - "Before we find out we’re treated to a brilliant opening set by Brisbane-via-Sunshine Coast garage blues duo The Blackwater Fever. Led by the unbelievably guttural, heartbroken howl of vocalist/guitarist Shane Hicks, the band deliver stomping blues with ‘Blackwater’ and ‘Back For You’."
