Modus Operandi (subtitled Live at the Hordern 2019) is a live album by Australian musician Jimmy Barnes.

Background

[edit]

The album was recorded at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on 5 October 2019, during the Shutting Down Your Town tour, in promotion of Barnes' 17th studio and ARIA number-one album, My Criminal Record.[2]

Description

[edit]

Modus Operandi features 7 songs from My Criminal Record alongside Barnes' live concert staples.[2] The album was recorded with Barnes' core touring band of Danny Spencer, Ben Rodgers, Clayton Doley, and his son Jackie Barnes, plus Michael Hegerty, Lachlan Doley, and family/band members Jane, Mahalia, EJ, and Elly-May Barnes.[1]

Barnes said "This tour has meant a lot to me. It's really the climax of nearly a decade spent confronting my demons and using words and music to come to terms with them. At all of these shows I can feel the audience picking me up and putting me on their shoulders, so I wanted to release one of the shows from this memorable tour to say thanks to everyone who was there, and to let everyone else know what they missed."[2][3]

For a limited time, the album came as a double album, including My Criminal Record.
