Folk Club Magic

Those of you lucky enough to attend the concert on Saturday, April 5 for the Newcastle & Hunter Valley Folk Club, would I’m sure be smiling at the memory.

An intriguing mix of sounds - including the opening energies of local female acapella ensemble, AMORÉ GRANDÉ - was served to the audience, who filled the Wesley Fellowship Hall in Hamilton to capacity.

ERIN’s lead vocalist, Bernadette Lannen, relished the opportunity to work alongside astounding local artists, Kent Daniel and Larry Hughes.  Apart from captivating jigs and reels on Bouzouki, Mandolin, Fiddle, Guitar and Bodhran, the repertoire included pieces by John Lennon and Dido Armstrong amidst the powerful original songs of Kent and Larry.

The penetrating drones of didgeridoo from Steve Lombardi also contributed to an unforgettable arrangement of the traditional song “She Moved Through The Fair”.

Kent and Larry will perform together at the St Alban’s Folk Festival on the Anzac Day Long Weekend.  ERIN hope to gig with the Folk Club later this year.
