A triple act tour of epic proportions, two 6 piece bands and a rockin’ duo hit the road from the East Coast to South Australia.
The raw rolling sounds of Benji & The Saltwater Sound System will have everyone on the dance floor with their Pacific grooves garnished with sweet guitar licks and feet-pounding horns. This tour coincides with the release of their latest single ‘Where The Daylight Meets’
Robyn Martin returns to the Eyre Peninsula this time with a full 6 piece band in tow. With a sound that is distinctly Australian, her music traversing a wide terrain from deep pocket soul, mixed with heart warming, thought provoking folk sensibilities, to the occasional country hoedown singalong and a sprinkle of grungy angst rock.
Karl S Williams and Sally Wiggins make music that is steeped in delta blues, gospel and old-time folk. Poetic sensibilities call to mind the classic singer-songwriters of yesteryear. With a voice that sounds about a thousand years old, Karl moves between guitar, piano and banjo. Sally’s mesmerising rhythms are drawn from her wealth of jazz and Afro influences. Karl proudly traces his bloodlines to the Butchulla and Darug people of Australia’s First Nations. This deep connection to the landscape of his homeland pervades his work and infuses it with a spirituality that is older than time.
Just a year into their journey the pair have already clocked up appearances at festivals such as Kiama Jazz & Blues, Wintermoon, Tamworth Country Music and Echuca Winter Blues and opened for The Whitlams, The Cruel Sea and Ash Grunwald.
