22.01.2022 Today’s band are the hometown heroes Four Lions, who started as a solo studio project for singer-songwriter Shann Lions in December 2014 after he emerged from an eight-year musical hiatus. It developed into a fully fledged band after Lions joined forces with guitarist Keith MacQueen, drummer Gavan Moncrieff and keyboardist Stephen Briggs. Bassist Bradley Bradford joined in early 2019. The Bendigo-based roots-rock outfit released their fourth album Hard Days last year. It was Melbourne’s Herald Sun Album of the Week. Four Lions are heading back into the studio in May to record their fifth album. It will be released later this year, followed by a national tour. See them at Gold Roses in the evening #altcountry #musicfestival #bendigo Photo By @skwestmore
