Enjoyed in a glowing Speakeasy atmosphere whilst consuming a succulent meal prepared by Paynesville Catering. Why not get your glad rags on as we transform the Paynesville Bowls club into a jumping blues supper club of yesteryear! Ian Collard: As part of Aria award winning Blues trio Collard Greens and Gravy, singer and Harmonica player Ian Collard has established himself as one of Australia’s leading blues artists. Attracted to the harmonica at an early age Ian found himself drawn to the music of Harmonica greats such as Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson and Sonny Terry and to the world of the Blues that inspired him to pursue a life in music.
In recent years Ian has been performing solo, handling singing , guitar and harmonica duties all at once in the style of some of his heroes like Dr Ross and Jimmy Reed and producing the authentic down-home blues sound that can be heard on his 2014 release ”Swamp Stomp and Boogie”.
Gippsland Blues Speakeasy has the mission of bringing outstanding blues artists to Gippsland to perform in local venues that have been transformed into circa 1930s era dinner cabaret clubs. Red velvet curtains, glowing golden lighting, and potted palms will set the scene for your dinner and show. Performances are accompanied by a sumptuous sit down meal presented by Paynesville Catering. The Artists are promoted in the local area and their albums and merchandise will be available for purchase after the show. Prizes will be awarded for the most exquisitely dressed.
