Event description
The Antipodeans in Concert with support Humbug
With great excitement we announce that The Antipodeans have stepped in to replace Ciaran Gibbin, who is sadly unavailable to perform on the 7th July
THE ANTIPODEANS
Take two avid and mellifluous folk singers, add two top notch bluegrass instrumentalists in folk mode and press play!
The initial spark, lit way back on a magic folk festival session , has come to fruition.
Antipodeans bring the joy of the folk song back into full focus with best loved and wild sourced ballads and tunes. The harmonic blending of voices and instruments gives a new insight and joyful interpretation of classic folk songs and originals.
All band members are well known in the folk scene and beyond .
Antipodeans débuted recently at the Cobargo folk festival and were received by enthusiastic audience response.
