Event Duration: 120 minutes

Alistair Hulett, the former frontman of Canberra-based Roaring Jack, is “responsible for some of the most stunning, impressive contemporary folk songs ever written” (Rock'n'Reel, UK). David Rovics has been called the musical voice of the progressive movement in the US. They're both among the best left-wing songwriters in the world today, and they're touring through Australia together this December. What better way to see them than on a summer Sunday afternoon in the Bella Union, right in the belly of Trades Hall? In a special one-off afternoon showcase this Sunday, Hulett and Rovics will play some of their greatest work. Audiophiles of the world, unite - you have everything to gain!
