Madass Folk Club Forum

 


Welcome to the Madass Folk Club website. The Club is now held each Thursday night at the Muddy Farmer Hotel Annerley starting at 8pm - and admission is free!!

For other great folk music events around Brisbane always go to The Folk Rag.
This week - a sensational lineup!! (Times subject to the whims and vagaries of Dame Fortune!)
 

  •   Blokapella  4 men in glorious full voice - it's the acoustic music equivalent of a Hielandmen's battle charge from BRAVEHEART. The original quartet re-united tonight to bring you an all-Oz set - Paul Kelly, an Aussie shanty, The Brisbane 'Lola', a singalong standard and .... errr ..... something else but we don't know what yet.


  •   Noel Gardner & Alex Bridge  Award winning songs with strong messages in a velvet glove of music. . A natural blend of voices with sensitive guitar & bass.

  •   Murphy's Pigs  MURPHY’S PIGS ........ a powerful, distinctive and unforgettable sound
    Formed to perform at the inaugural ‘Year of Australia’ events at the world’s largest Celtic Festival in Brittany, France in 2006, Murphy’s Pigs have quickly established themselves as a force in the Celtic music genre, and experts in the art of organised chaos. These purveyors of fine Celtic music have been labelled as irreverent, dynamic and passionate. If The Pigs had to define their music it would be best described as 'Retro Celtic' - classic Celtic music from the folk revival era of the 60's and 70's with a sprinkling of some of the more contemporary stuff to keep it interesting. Irish, Scottish, Australian, French and Spanish – they play it all. Corporate functions, festivals, ceilidhs, weddings, clubs or pubs – they play anywhere. Guitars, fiddle, flute, bagpipes, banjo, percussion and rich vocal harmonies combine to provide a powerful, distinctive and unforgettable sound. Once in a lifetime a band emerges from nowhere to redefine the world’s perception of Celtic music. This is not that band. For the rest of the story go to www.murphyspigs.com.

Come along and support the Madass weekly live folk and acoustic music community.
See you there and bring your friends!!
