THREE AWARD WINNING SONGWRITERS: Bill Jackson, Frank Jones and Dave Steel sitting around a kitchen table doing what they do at home. Playing old and new songs from their extensive solo catalogues, interspersed with their take on some classic Australian folk songs, they will make you sing, laugh and cry. A show not to be missed!FRANK JONES: As a founding member of The Whirling Furphies, Frank penned Melbourne's iconic anthem, ‘My Brown Yarra’, one of the great songs about Melbourne. His lifetime of cross-genre songwriting includes five outstanding albums of his own and a multitude of songs written for and co-written with other artists.
‘Frank Jones sings songs about people that walk down the same streets I do, cross the same rivers, drink the same brand of beer. Frank writes locally, which makes him a truly international writer. I know the people in his songs. I know their heartache and heartease’ (Paul Kelly)
BILL JACKSON: Jackson has firmly established himself over the past few years as one of Australia’s finest Singer/Songwriters. He has released eight solo albums and toured North America four times.
‘Bill Jackson is coming from the grass roots, from the ground up, from the struggle of the 99% - his songs are gritty and real and come at you like a hammer, ringin' in the mornin'. Take it or leave it, he's telling it straight up’. (Shane Howard)
DAVE STEEL : Dave Steel is a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer with an extensive history in the roots music scene in Australia. He was a founding member of Weddings Parties Anything, has released nine solo albums, received several ARIA nominations and has worked as a sideman and session musician with many of Australia’s finest performers - including seven years with Archie Roach as an instrumentalist, as well as Rose Bygrave and Marcia Howard, amongst many others.
