Hootenanny Highway was forged from a love of standing side-by-side, singing harmony with old friends, and glancing sideways over instrument necks to smile across the music.

It is a combination of Northern Rivers musicians from various outfits coming together from as far north as the top of majestic Bundjalung Country to as far south as sparkling Yaegl Country to do just that.

With an all-acoustic line-up of old timey and bluegrass instruments, different players jump on and off for each piece to curate an exquisite array of slowly-decolonising-coloniser folk fanfare – a dream run of songs, tunes, tribute and laughter, as if around a big old kitchen table.

This December Hootenanny Highway bring their delightful chaos back to Pearce’s Creek Hall. Come and share the joy.

Proceeds from this show will be donated to the hall.

This event is BYO. Food will be available for sale for $10 a plate, and tea, coffee and cakes for a gold coin donation.

Doors (and food) from 6.00pm.

Show 7.00pm - 9.00pm with a half hour intermission.

Helper ticket: we are trialling a ticket that enables parents with young children to bring along one friend or carer to help look after the kids. Pearces Creek Hall is very much a 'listening room', and out of respect for the musicians and members of the audience we ask our audience not to talk or make noise during the performance. This ticket is intended to be used by a helper who is able to take children out of the room if they are noisy and tired, while you continue to enjoy the show. (All feedback welcome!).
