Geoff Achison 60th Birthday

GEOFF ACHISON: 60TH BIRTHDAY

SOLO ACOUSTIC SHOW

One night only. One man. One guitar. A lifetime of music.

Saturday 23 August 7.30pm

Tickets $30

Join us for an unforgettable evening of music and storytelling as internationally acclaimed blues-roots guitarist, vocalist and songwriter Geoff Achison returns to his roots to celebrate a major milestone—his 60th birthday—with an intimate solo acoustic performance at the Northern Arts Hotel, just a stone’s throw from his childhood home in Malmsbury.

From the smoky juke joints of the American south, and 14th century English Alehouses to countless stages across the US, UK and here in Oz, Geoff Achison’s career has spanned continents and decades, building a global following with his fiery guitar work, soul-drenched vocals, and heartfelt songwriting.

But on this special night, it’s all about coming home. In the warm surrounds of Castlemaine’s renowned arts hub, fans will be treated to stripped-back versions of Geoff’s most beloved tunes, deep cuts from his catalog, and the stories behind the songs—tales from a life lived on the road and anchored in the blues.

One night only. One man. One guitar. A lifetime of music.

Book early to secure your seat for this rare and personal celebration of a true Australian original.

Geoff Achison has toured the world delivering memorable solo shows with his beloved Gibson guitar. A master of his instrument, Geoff employs a truly stripped-back approach to his solo shows, treating his old guitar like an orchestra with sweeping chords, and cascading arpeggios, using no electronic loops or gadgets. His next album is in production and will be a limited edition on vinyl & CD, due for release this October. Come and witness a scintillating show and get your fix of old-school blues, fabulous finger-style and heartfelt songwriting.
