DANNY SPOONER A traditional singer from Central Victoria, Danny Spooner is regarded as one of the foremost in Australia. Londonborn, he learned his craft as a boy on the Thames, and at sea with a singing skipper. He arrived in Australia as the Australian folk revival kicked off in the 60s. As a historian his introductions give context for his British and Australian material. Through years of festivals, concerts, house concerts and camps in Australia, Europe and North America, he’s welcomed for his personal warmth, and loves to pass songs on.

DEMPSEY ROBSON TWEED This new trio of Kevin Dempsey, Carolyn Robson and Karen Tweed, is delighting audiences with a beautiful mix of tunes and vibrant arrangements of traditional and contemporary songs. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Kevin is a true craftsman, whose warm, lyrical style, and fresh, rhythmic approach has brought diverse collaborations with Dave Swarbrick to Percy Sledge. Carolyn draws on her Northumbrian song roots to bring a sense of the tradition to the proceedings and playing her 72 bass Pigini piano accordion, Karen straddles traditional Irish to classical, in a uniquely haunting, emotive, yet exciting way. This combination is definitely more than the sum of its parts! Friday 5:00pm Budawang Saturday 8:00pm Marquee Sunday 10:30pm The Terrace Monday 6:20 Flute ‘n’ Fiddle
