In the dark depths of winters gone by, our ancestors would gather together around a fire and share tales to pass the long nights, giving hope for brighter days ahead. Paying homage to that tradition through his lived experience as a wandering minstrel, Jesse McCormack will be appearing at a selection of venues across northern NSW and South-East Queensland this June. He will present a selection of musical narratives from his repertoire of English, Scottish, Irish, and Swedish folk songs, and original compositions inspired by those traditions. With his clear, bardic voice, deeply imbued sense of rhythm, infectious enthusiasm, and intense devotion to his craft, Jesse has spent many years entertaining audiences all over the south-east of Australia, the north-west of Europe, and beyond. His minstrelsy escorts listeners into a folkloric experience of druidic storytelling, conjuring a sound reminiscent of artists such as Steeleye Span or Loreena McKennitt and infused with vibes of bohemian Achilleanism; a coalescence of ancient and contemporary, intimate and epic, passionately raw and studiously refined - a fitting homage to the non-linear relevance of folklore.
Ensure you are following Jesse for updates as the tour progresses and see his website for full details of each concert. @jessethedruid Also, share this with a friend who lives close by to any of these venues!

‼️Artist Spotlight‼️
Who: Meg Washington
With Special Guest: Grace Woodroofe!
When: 29th March 12pm
Tickets Available from: .au/events/2359
Meg Washington is a platinum-selling, award-winning, and genre-defying singer-songwriter who fluently weaves the worlds of jazz, pop, folk and musical theatre together.
At the heart of Meg’s latest album “GEM”, is this tour's namesake “Natural Beauty” - a concept that stemmed from challenging the role of an artist in society, and bringing her own world of truth and beauty to the surface. “It took a long time to write. It’s the only piano song on the album, and is written as a sort of list of various complaints I have about being an artist inside a capitalistic world. I never imagined I would use ‘superannuation’ as a lyric, but the songs always find a way to startle me”. On her Natural Beauty Tour, Meg brings her unforgettable show to an extensive list of some of Australia’s most beautiful and remote locations. Solo, Meg’s shows are an intimate, captivating spell. Alone at the piano, the soaring melodies and lyrical poetry of her songwriting are laid bare, as Meg makes her way through a selection of songs from her impressive five-album catalog. Each night is truly unique, with a setlist often chosen according to the special, connected moment that is shared between artist and audience. “I grew up singing in jazz clubs, so these intimate solo shows feel so right to me. I love to improvise, and these shows are the perfect chance.” A rare opportunity to hear Meg’s electrifying voice up close and to experience one of Australia’s best musicians in a never-to-be repeated live performance
