Clare's Birthday Party in Hawks Nest property - 1 hour door to door from Newcastle, 2 pm in afternoon, Sep 2023

A totally professional, fun, accomodating, chill band and perfect fit for our function. The music was fantastic with a mix of old and new and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the sounds. Would book them again in a heartbeat! Thank you Mel, Paul, Jason and gang!

More Info


Music is a dedicated art form so we pay our band members music standard rates. In exchange, be assured you will love our unique music as much as we do. As contemporary folk musicians, with festival and community experience, we know how to work in fast changing environments, cheerfully problem solve and accept the challenges.


We can provide our own PA or hook into your existing house system.

We love doing outdoor gigs but do request that the cover is enough that we and our equipment don't get wet.

Of course we also need safe power to set up that PA and time before the event to set up.

We also request that payment of half our quoted price is made 2 weeks prior to the event which is not refundable if you cancel the event. Full payment is requested on the gig day. We can provide you with a tax invoice for your records.


This is a sample set list. We are happy to add songs to our list for your special day.
