GUEST ARTISTS: 21 FEBRUARY

CLOUDSTREET

Cloudstreet - hot harmonies & beautiful ballads. John and Nicole's performances are packed with vitality, humour and excitement, as they breathe new life into some of the great songs of the Australian, English and Celtic traditions and carry the tradition forward with original songs and tunes.  Driving guitar and Irish flute support their enthralling vocals. Their trademark dazzling harmonies and their impassioned presentation are leavened with humour and great tales from their travels.

PLUS JAY N DOLL

"Jay 'n Doll" aka. Jay and Carole Jacobs, is a duet made up of a Texan and a Queenslander. They are mostly Traditional Country & Western with a little bit of Blues/Folk. Jay, born into a Texas country music family, played in his dad's band from a young age and Carole developed her love of country music from living in Texas for twenty-one years. As songwriters they have been working on their album for the past two years, traveling to Nashville in 2008, and 2009 with post-recording tours of some of Texas' Oprys. They will be back in Nashville in March to finish recording their CD of originals and a few covers. In April they will again tour the Texas Opry Circuit which includes Wiley Opry, Gladewater Opry, Cross Timbers Opry and Cowtown Opry. At home in Queensland, they perform for Club Socials, cafes, festivals and fundraisers.
