Come join us at Smiths on Friday the 24th of June to celebrate the spirit of Woodstock with Graeme Adler and Margaret O’Connor. Doors open at 6pm and cost is only $5!

Graeme Adler and Margaret O’Connor are two very versatile local performers who between them sing, play guitar, violin and keyboard, and have a huge array of material which they draw upon from time to time to unleash on an unsuspecting public.

They’ll be performing at Smiths Alternative Bookshop this Friday night at 6.00pm and will be drawing upon songs from the protest era.

You’ll be hearing interpretations of music from Bob Dylan, Billy Bragg, Alastair Hulett, Malvina Reynolds and more, whose inspired writings illuminated causes such as environmentalism, feminism, workers’ rights and the anti-war movement.

Bring your protest banners, beads, and peace signs!
