What is "Torched Songs" about? Following the apartment fire in October 2018, still an unresolved case of Arson, Louis has been steadily recovering and restoring himself and his music. He has re-released The Ugly Truth on Vinyl, and now the classic Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell on CD. However, he did lose the majority of his CD and Vinyl stock in this fire...and has been planning to do a tour, and possibly an album, with Torched Songs in the title...as a reference to his burned music. And the time is nigh.

In 2020, he performed two nights at the Premier Jazz Club - The Camelot Lounge - just as severe Covid restrictions came into place. Since then he has awaited the opportunity to perform for those who couldn't make it to those nights, due to Health concerns.

On November 22, 2020 Louis was invited to play an Impromptu performance at this same venue, as part of the "Great Southern Nights" ARIA Initiative, to boost Live Music attendance in Australia.

The Camelot Lounge have been practicing Covid Safe Protocols and have once again invited Louis to return, in January 2021.

By Popular Request (over some 33 years)
​Louis Tillett has decided to REISSUE the album that shook up the Underground Music world so many years ago.

The title of the Album even became a part of the Vernacular from its inception. And in case you are wondering...it was indeed Louis who coined the phrase. 

The expression "Ego Tripping at The Gates of Hell" has been "borrowed" for everything from TV Episode names, Podcasts, and even sampled in other Underground Music.

The Flaming Lips paid homage to Louis, naming their US Number One Album "Ego Tripping at The Gates of Hell", after having used it as a song title on their previous album. (And YES, we have confirmation that Warren is a genuine fan of Louis' music!)

Louis has teamed up with WOW Music to release
Ego Tripping at The Gates of Hell on CD, with updated liner notes and improved Graphics. We would like to acknowledge not only WOW MUSIC for their incredible work, but also ART AND SOUL, for their Graphic Design prowess in taking the original Hand-Painted Artwork and painstakingly restoring and updating it.

Louis Tillett is a brilliant musician, a great band leader and a total wildcard. In this classic music documentary the legendary Australian singer-songwriter and keyboardist embarks on an extraordinary concert at the Basement in Sydney and discusses his creative process and episodic mental illness. Featuring performances and candid interviews with collaborators Penny Ikinger, Charlie Owens, Dianne Spence and Don Walker, and interviews with brother John and sister Nina. Surprisingly, Louis is an accomplished sailor, and one evening on the liquid black of Sydney Harbour he confides the connection between the swell of the elemental sea and his own psychological journeys. Louis Tillett is a musician's musician, highly respected yet finding mainstream success elusive, perhaps in part because he paints his own troubles in music.
