It’s time to shake off your winter blues & join in the fun at our annual Winter Blues Party.

Our headline act is Liza Ohlback Band from Sydney – Liza on vocals, Eric Rasmussen on guitar & Greg Ohlback on drums with special guest, Ali Penney on keys. This 2013 Triple Chain Awards Winner for best Female Vocalist, best new talent and best producer, with her stunning vocal ability has been compared to Etta James & Aretha Franklin. Liza has been commended as a songwriter who tells it like it is, and delivers her songs with humour, sensitivity and a passion that will send shivers up your spine. With Ali Penney (also a multi-Chain Awards recipient 2014) on keys; they’re sure to get you off your chairs & onto that dance floor!

Support act, Richard Perso, from Yackandandah doesn’t seem to have enough arms, legs or lungs to pull off such a physically demanding performance; but that doesn’t stop him from playing 3 didgeridoos, driving a weapons cache of 4 overdriven acoustic guitars and somehow managing to replace the roll of a drummer with little more than his 2 feet while hollering like a 1920’s Blues man. At just 23 Richard has blazed through over 130 festivals leaving the audience gasping behind him both all over Australia and the international stage.
