Grapefruit Moon: The Songs of Tom Waits is Southside's tribute to one of his favorite songwriters, but also a pet sound: big band music. The idea to marry the brassy, ballsy sound of a big band to Tom Waits' cinematic, character-driven songs has been sitting in the back of Southside's mind for sometime.

Tom Waits - Second Hand Stories is the definitive overview of this maverick performer's career since 1983 and the release of the magnificent Swordfishtrombones, up to present times. With review, comment and criticism coming from a highly respected and knowledgeable panel, including the legendary Waits' producer Bones Howe, as well as biographers Barney Hoskyns and Patrick Humphries, this documentary film is the finest available on the second half of Waits' long and extraordinary journey and provides a fascinating insight into the man and his music.
