Blind from birth\, he found purpose and meaning through songs and music inspired by his community and country on Elcho Island in far North East Arnhem Land. Living a traditional Yolngu life\, his breakthrough album ‘Gurrumul’ brought him to a crossroads as audiences and artists around the world began to embrace his music.\nGURRUMUL is a portrait of an artist on the brink of global reverence\, and the struggles he and those closest to him faced in balancing that which mattered most to him and keeping the show on the road.”

SUMMARY:The Blues Tram w/Jo Jo Smith + Doc White
DESCRIPTION:A genuine bluesman in Doc White and a queen of soul in Jo Jo Smith with deliver a very special Blues Tram experience on 12 May! \nEnjoy the sights of Bendigo’s architecturally stunning CBD from on board the sensationally restored vintage W Class tram\, while being serenaded by two great acts: \nJo Jo Smith:\nJo Jo Smith singer / songwriter / musician. Across the genres soul funk Blues Latin jazz R&B. ” Jo Jo has a stage presence that special singers possess. No histrionics just a deep connection with audience and musicians. An elastic voice – demure one minute\, tough and decisive the next “. Jo Jo has a feel and groove that touches people deeply. The Jo Jo Smith musical experience is like a breath of fresh air. \nDoc White:\nDoc is a musician\, songwriter\, actor and playwright who grew up in Adelaide at a time when some of the most bizarre murders in the country were being committed. As a result of an unfortunate series of seemingly random events\, a copy of Lightning Hopkins first Arhoolie record landed on his old HMV record player and the gloom was lifted. A lifelong and\, some would say\, unhealthy interest in blues and true crime evolved that has remained to this day.\nDoc plays country blues like the devil (who was an early fan) and is one of the few modern blues artists to adopt the mandolin\, despite it being an instrument that is nearly impossible to tune.\nDoc’s music has been played on ABC Radio and he has been featured on The Planet and in Rhythms Magazine.\nDoc’s tune Cropduster Blues was voted Song of the Year at the 2004 Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society Vic/Tas Blues Awards. \nSaturday May 14th\nBlues Tram\, feat: Jo Jo Smith + Doc White\nDeparting Central Deborah Goldmine (76 Violet Street) at 2pm\, returning 4:15pm.\nTix: $35 from Bendigo Visitor Centre 1800 813 513 or https://www.bendigotourism.com/tours/bendigo-cbd/bendigo-blues-tram\nFollow The Blues Tram here: https://www.facebook.com/TheBluesTram \nStrictly no BYO.

SUMMARY:Lucie Thorne & The Yearlings at The Old Church on the Hill
DESCRIPTION:Lucie Thorne & The Yearlings bring an intimate double-bill concert to The Old Church on the Hill in Bendigo on Friday 25th May.  \nLucie Thorne has earned her place as one of Australia’s most striking contemporary songsmiths. With eleven releases to her name – including her latest LP Everything Sings Tonight – and a prodigious touring schedule\, Thorne continues to carve out an extraordinary creative career. Thorne conjure “exquisitely impressionistic… poetry in motion” (*Rolling Stone) with an intimacy and warmth for which her live shows have become so renowned. “A demonstration of power through grace and subtlety. World Class.” (Roots Down) “Atmospheric\, innovative… brilliance” (*Sydney Morning Herald).  \nSouth Australian sweethearts The Yearlings make music that exudes raw beauty\, honesty\, intimacy and passion\, and have built a reputation for their evocative songwriting\, keen harmonies and mesmerizing live performances. With Parkinson’s signature guitar tones and Chalklen’s hypnotic prose\, The Yearlings deliver tunes with a confidence that carries an addictive fragility. Quiet\, intimate\, raw and powerful\, they produce a new strain of acoustic music\, distilling Americana alt. country through the filter of distinctly Australian life.  \nhttp://www.luciethorne.com\nhttp://www.theyearlings.net \nDoors open at 7pm for a 7:30pm start and the tickets are only $18.50 pre-sale or $20 at the door. Secure your seats now! \nThe Old Church on the Hill is located on the corner of Harkness and Russell Streets\, Quarry Hill\, Bendigo.\nThe Singer/Songwriter Showcase events\, staged at the Old Church by the Bendigo Blues & Roots Music Festival crew on a semi-regular basis\, are an opportunity to enjoy a House Concert vibe in a public venue.  The door charge is generally $15 for adults\, under 12s free and\, although drinks are available for sale\, the focus is on THE MUSIC.  If your conversation is more important to you than other people’s enjoyment of the artists’ performance\, please take it outside.\nProceeds from drink sales go to supporting the Old Church crew and their many worthy initiatives. Sound production is provided by R&J DJ & Entertainment and the door takings are able to be shared between the performers with thanks to our valued sponsors picking up the costs that would normally come out of the door.\nWe look forward to your company for an intimate concert experience you’re unlikely to have experienced before.
