Adder’s Fork

Adder’s Fork are a folk trio from Sydney, Australia. Since 2015 they have been performing their original songs and covers at a wide variety of festivals, street fairs, concerts and libraries. Their music derives from the Celtic folk tradition with infusions of rock, indie/alternative and classical. Writing meaningful lyrics that tell a good story is important to them … as is singing in tight, blended harmonies.

Beautifully Mad

“A musical flame that licks at the heels of Folk and Jazz.”

“Breathtaking original music reminiscent of the beauty of James Taylor, some honey from Melody Gardot, a lyrical spice of Cohen washed down with some Waits-like humour.”

Tony King and Nina Vox are Beautifully Mad, two of Australia’s finest Singer/songwriters. ARIA Award winning Tony King was named Australian Songwriter of the Year 2020 and 2009.

Expect goose-bumps in the “hauntingly beautiful vein of Sting“, to the exotic tones “reminiscent of Cassandra Wilson” to “the wild Hendrix-spiked guitar and dirty New Orleans exhilaration of a band possessed”. “Tony has a reputation for setting fire to a 12 string with his solos, while Kris melts hearts with her rich, mellifluous voice and nylon string guitar.”

Traditional Graffiti

Last show of the year… join us for a festive end to 2024.

“Not merely a band, Traditional Graffiti is an idea; a collective of musicians celebrating British Folk music at its best.

The core of the band, now resident in Australia, grew up in the UK, immersed in their local folk traditions; at
home; at school; on the radio; or at community events.

And later, experiencing the 1960’s/70’s folk revival first–hand at folk clubs, concerts and festivals, or in small
groups of like minds sharing and writing songs.
