THE 5 LANDS BAND

You never really know who's going to be in the band, but you can always count on a performance of the highest calibre being delivered to you on the last Sunday of every month.

The 5 Lands Experience is a Hut community tradition boasting over 10 years of bragging rights. Some of the performers onstage will be able to recount tales from the first ever gatherings of the "band" in 2009; others may only be visiting The Rhythm Hut for the first time.

Curated by Hut founder Rendra Freestone, the 5 Lands Band showcases an ever-evolving collection of top musicians from Central Coast, Newcastle, and Sydney, all coming together to connect over their common love of music. There are no rehearsals, no written pieces, no agreed-upon structures. Just an improvised musical journey flowing straight from the wildly talented minds of professional artists.

You may get jazz. You may hear folk. You might be offered funk, reggae, or rock.
