Event description

Andrew & Shenzo entwined at Clermont's International Supper Club @ Tamworth Festival

Multi-awarded Andrew Clermont after getting well warmed up at Townsville Folk Festival brings a very special unique collaboration surprise between Golden Fiddle Award lauded Shenzo Gregorio adding to his very dear muso compadre Matt Whitton, (whose video work you get to see on each ferry ride!), treating us to the magic of his Kora (African Harp) and general musicology, plus a rarely seen performance of Beat with his new mega Gong, Siberian Jaw Harp and sooo much more adding voice to the far flung collection of songs Clermont is ever further revealing annually at the home garden of Sharn Rocco. An afternoon of Gypsy Jazz to Bluegrass, Folk, Country plus the occasional rock out to balance the ambient entwined soaring music where-ever our imaginations will lead us!

  Delectable foods gather from Sharn and yourselves (! bring a fav food if you like) for the mid break with usually Chai, Coffee & Tea plus you can bring a picnic of what ever keeps you refreshed & comfortable! Bring a seat if you can but there are bunch on offer in case you can't!

  To save you looking up data (when enticing your friends who might not have been before!), Clermont's recent awards include Inducted into SA Music Hall of Fame, Lifetime Achievement Golden Fiddle Award plus his 3 earlier Bluegrass Guitar Championship wins along with a Golden Guitar Award with the Three Chord Wonders! Many European tours with BluGuru, Totally Gourdgeous & Dya Singh - it really does mean anything could happen as they play as indeed it is meant to!
