This afternoon of awesomeness kicks off with epic local legend Heath Gillespie playing earthy, gutsy, hauntingly old school blues-rock live from 3:30 – 4:30pm.
You’ll close your eyes and swear you’re sitting in a dark rambunctious tavern nigh on 10 decades ago. Gillespie is set to play an array of nostalgic covers and a sprinkling of poetic modern-whiskey-blues originals. Don’t miss this timeless musical journey for the ages. Grounded. Uplifting. Rich with melodic hues ranging from the dark truths of the human condition to the heady lights of love, poetry and synchronicity. He won’t tell you as much, because he’s humble as pie. But we sure will. And his music will say the rest.
Then, the inimitable, iconic Georgia Rodgers takes the stage from 5pm with both acoustic and electric offerings alongside a wild vocal journey that will both soothe your soul with its powerful husk and make you forget what you’ve ever listened to before this.
Lungs for days, killer fret shredder, epic peddle meddler. One day you’ll look back on these heady free gigs when you’re scouring ticketing resale websites because you can’t get in the door at this legend’s international gigs. Come and enjoy the arvo you’ll tell stories about forever. This is it. Last call. This is the one you don’t miss.
Playing a range of gutsy, soulful electric and acoustic blues with a contemporary flavour of roots and in this very special session, there is word on the breeze that a gloriously soulful special guest will be joining Georgia onstage. My word do we have a treat for you, Rezza.
It’s first in best dressed so book a table or get in early to enjoy a beauty of an arvo.
