Event Duration: 150 minutes

This line up brings together some old and new favourites of the Victorian folk scene.

Belfast-born and Melbourne-based, Andy White has had an incredible career which spans 15 albums, three books, hit songs and co-writes with the likes of Peter Gabriel, Neil Finn and Tim Finn. He has another new album out later this year titled How Things Are and will be playing some of his best-known songs and a bunch of newbies in his visit to our Folk Club.

We finally saw Stray Hens and Cat & Clint at the recent Folk Alliance Australia conference, after hearing many good things. Both were outstanding and will be seen of the bill of many festivals in the upcoming Australian summer.

Stray Hens play old UK ballads mixed with original songs. They have such a luscious, full sound with the 5-piece band (4-piece for Folk Club) and are fronted by the extremely talented Mandy Connell.

Cat & Clint are about as authentic an old-timey band as we've seen locally. They look and sound like they're from another era, and will be perfect for Folk Club in harmony around a single microphone. Check out some of their recordings HERE (so old school they ain't on youtube!)

Doors @ 7.30PM - Set 1 @ 8PM - Set 2 8.45PM & Set 3 @ 9.40PM
