Miriam Lieberman Trio
MIRIAM LIEBERMAN TRIO
African influences blend seamlessly with blues-infused melodies and soaring vocal harmonies in the music by Sydney singer song-writer Miriam Lieberman. Her albums are soulful collections of stories, beautifully told through strings, African kora and Lieberman’s unmistakable voice. The stories speak of Lieberman’s musical journey, which has taken her from Guinea and Mali, where she studied the kora – a west-African harp with a beautiful, evocative tone – to central India, Indonesia, Mexico and South America. These places have left an imprint on Lieberman’s musical style as well as a catchiness and contemporary tone that is entirely her own.

“Her songs are beautifully melodic, richly textured but can have pointed themes…. Simply brilliant" 4.5 stars, Jeff Glorfeld, The Age

AARON LYON
Aaron Lyon is a soulful Blues balladeer whose craft has been forged by the blues of life, love and loss, at no expense to his roguish charm. Armed with a guitar and an unusually athletic voice, he evokes handsome imagery through his melodic storytelling. His showcase of original compositions straddles a variety of stylistic influences ensuring that you always get more than the 12 bars you bargained for.
Currently resting his head in Sydney, Aaron has played many major venues including the Vanguard, The Basement, The Victoria Room, The Piano Room, The Supper Club and The Beach Road Hotel plus fine dining establishments including Tony Bilson’s Number One Wine Bar and Bistro.
He has played support for the likes of Deisel, Iota, Jenny Morris, Leonard Cohen, Michael Buble and Powderfinger.

FLAT ROCK BOYS
Born out of jams in the barrel aging basement of their favourite local brew cafe, during breaks from other musical projects (The Crooked Fiddle Band, Two Fat Bastards), the Flat Rock Boys are an old-timey, folky, bluegrassy collaboration between: Mark 'The Crawdad' Stevens - vocals, mountain dulcimer, double bass, Antonio 'Panda' Filando, 'the Django of Mando' - mandolin, double bass, vocals, and Gordon 'Longshanks' Wallace - guitar, vocals, clawhammer banjo.
Expect trad and not-so-trad tunes rallying around the high lonesomeness of the mountain dulcimer and bound together by the camaraderie of longtime friends. Listen here.
