treading a wide path between deep soul and country blues.

for this Caboolture set.

since having major surgery. www.jimmybarnes.com
JOHN WILLIAMSON has stayed true to his traditions throughout a
35-year career, following Banjo Paterson and Henry Lawson in
defining the Aussie character.

My Back, Bells In A Bushmen’s Ear, Chandelier of Stars and his
dedication to Steve Irwin, Wildlife Warriors: It’s Time.
A true blue legend, John’s lent his name and music to more than a
few fair dinkum causes from the environment to koalas and
campfires and brings integrity with more than a hint of the
larrikin, to his performances. www.johnwilliamson.com.au
