$20/15Tom Woodward has been writing and releasing his unique brand of baroque folk-rock, cosmic country psychedelia, and fuzzed-out lo-fi gems on numerous albums and EPs for the last two decades.
With an enviable cache of songs that document his thoughts and experiences, he's already lived a fascinating life. Tom honed his craft in the thriving arts & music scene of Canberra and Melbourne in the mid-2000s before taking his original songs to audiences around Australia, Japan, and the USA.
In 2023, Tom put down the guitar and embarked on a two month walk up the east coast of Australia, ending with a hospital stay and a hard-earned respect for the fragility of life. A year and a half later, he got deported as an illegal alien from the USA.
Tom's eclectic musicality and creative work ethic are proof he's in it for the long haul. Having been sentenced to a wandering life by a sardonic and hilarious God, Tom's been laughing, crying, and singing about it ever since.
And to open up the evening for her first ever Canberra show Tegan Portener will be joining us!
Hailing from the South Coast, Tegan started tapping her toes to the likes of Bob Dylan, Karen Dalton and Joni Mitchell from a young age. With access to his guitar collection, Tegan followed in her father’s footsteps and began playing when her hands grew big enough to hold one of them.
Returning to her hometown of Nowra for a slower paced lifestyle, you will find Tegan singin’ and pluckin’ away at local breweries and cafes or with her bands; Casuarina Light Phenomenon and Horse Drawn Cadillac, at local festivals, events, and bars up and down the coast.
