LIVE IN STORE - JULY 2009 GEOFF ACHISON Friday 3rd July @ 12.45 Having just spent the last 2 years living & playing in the States, catching Geoff locally has not been possible. His 2 years away have only consolidated his standing as one of Australia's foremost & highly respected blues guitarists/vocalists & his brand new album 'One Ticket, One Ride' is justifiably receiving rave reviews across the board! He's the consummate live performer...so come along & celebrate his return! SAL KIMBER & THE GOOD OLE BOYS Friday 10th July @ 12.45 From Country Victoria, Sal & her 'good ole boys' (actually 2 boys & 3 girls!) will be one of our musical highlights for 2009, we guarantee it! Though their incredible debut 'Sounds Like Thunder' slipped under our radar last year...we're making up for lost time in that it's been on VERY high rotation round these parts for the last month or so! Sounding rural & rootsy, but with urban savvy, her songs are perfect stories within a song, beautifully arranged, and feat. wonderfully sympathetic & innovative instrumentation. Sal writes all the material, plays banjo superbly (along with electric & acoustic guitar), has a great voice & is gorgeous to boot!! Who says "you can't have it all"?! SPECTRUM Thursday 16th July @ 12.45 **Please note it's* Thursday* NOT Friday!! The highly esteemed MIKE RUDD & BILL PUTT along with band members PETER 'Robbo' ROBERTSON on drums, & DARYL ROBERTS on keys, will once again grace our stage to launch their brand new EP (part 2 in their series of EP releases) titled 'BREATHING SPACE TOO'. It's always a very happy day when these guys are playing, and such a joy to watch such incredibly talented & accomplished musicians perform. Still coming up with great new material (tho' we're sure they might just play some old faves as well!), please come along & be the first "on the block" to grab their brand new EP & of course, have it signed!
