25.01.2022 Sunday 16th April, 9pm. Free Entry Tom Day is a roots rock artist from Margaret River who is rapidly making a name for himself on the West Australian music scene with his phenomenal guitar work and foot-thumping, energetic on-stage vibes. Born and raised in a small town in the Midwest of Australia, Tom was introduced to the guitar at the age of 12 by his father, who showed him a few chords. He was immediately hooked.... Since quitting his full time job in 2014 to pursue his musical career he has supported some renowned Australian acts such as Thirsty Merc, Kallidad and Morgan Bain and has shared the stage with Kim Churchill, Tom Richardson and Benny Walker as well as appearing on the lineup for the 2016 WAM South West Showcase. Having recently returned to the South West after a massive WA tour off the back of his new EP, 'Searching for Splendor', he is gearing up for a very busy year of shows all over Australia. 'Searching for Splendor' went straight to #1 on the iTunes Blues charts following its release in May 2016, with the first single 'Vent' reaching #1 on the Triple J Unearthed Roots Charts. His live performances show great diversity from finger-picked melodies to heavy handed upbeat jams, all while thumping away on a beautifully crafted stomp box.

17.01.2022 After the Storm....Comes the sunshine.....Margaret River 2017 Winter Session!!!

16.01.2022 OKA Thursday 4th May, 9pm Embracing the future without losing sight of the past, OKA draws upon their indigenous connection to place and country to create their signature feel good Australian earth sound, an irresistible blend of influences spanning house, big beat, reggae-dub, Roots, Jazz and world music.... A mashup of dance & downtempo electro beats marinated in the mystical spirit of the Dreamtime. "Try to imagine Bob Marley meets Stevie Wonder via the chemical brothers, on acid, playing in a steaming rainforest with a didgeridoo and you are getting close" After their involvement in the 2000 Sydney Olympics together, the OKA journey began the following year and they continue to bring the joy, fluidity and simplicity of their positive music to a much larger, growing audience on a global stage. Independently selling over 170,000 albums, they have shared the stage alongside inspirational acts Arrested Development, Finnley Quay, Xavier Rudd, Dehli to Dublin, Kinnie Starr, Digging Roots to name a few. While sharing the the bill with the likes of Kiss, Santana, Sting, Burning Spear, Yothu Yindi, Beats Antiques, Fat Freddys Drop, Damian Marley and The Wailers. OKA have thrieved at festivals throughout Australia, Asia & Nth America including Glastonbury (UK), Ozora (Hungry) & Boom Festival (Portugal), Montreal Jazz (CAN), Winnipeg Folk (CAN), Green Room Festival (JAP), Earthdance & Joshua Tree (CA), Kahala Aina (Hawaii), Fusion Festival (GERMANY) Bali Spirit (INDO) & Woodford Folk Festival, Rainbow Serpent, Splendour in the Grass (AUS) Sydney Opera House (AUS). In these arenas OKA has sent unsuspecting crowds into hypnotic frenzies, gaining them a strong reputation for their festival highlight standout performances. At the creative heart of the music is Stu Boga Fergie (aka DidgeriSTU) who connects you to earth with the deep subsonic pulse and resonance of his Yidaki (didgeridoo). He is the big man behind the electronic beats, keys & vocals inspired by his aboriginal heritage. The OKA Collective includes captivating melody on guitar, sax, flute & woodwinds woven through organic juju beats of deep tribal fire. A sound & force that touches the heart & connects the soul.

10.01.2022 WOLFMOTHER Wednesday 26th April, 9pm. Having spent the majority of 2016 touring & selling out theatres, stadiums & festivals throughout the world including North & South America, Europe, the UK & Scandinavia, Wolfmother finally return to Australia for the home leg of their 'Gypsy Caravan' tour (& their first full national album tour since the release of 2009's 'Cosmic Egg').... With an extensive history & career, including multi platinum sales, ARIA, Grammy & other award nods too numerous to mention, Wolfmother released album number 4, 'Victorious' in 2016 to rave reviews & enthusiastic international response resulting in the aforementioned extended world tour. Led by vocalist/guitarist Andrew Stockdale, Wolfmother have amassed a global fanbase, played to packed-house crowds around the world, delivered show-stealing sets at star-studded festivals like Coachella, Lollapalooza and Reading and Leeds, and have been invited to share stages with rock icons Aerosmith and AC/DC. For their induction into the UK Music Hall of Fame, Led Zeppelin personally invited Wolfmother as their guests (the band showed their appreciation by delivering an electrifying cover of "Communication Breakdown"). For most artists, such accomplishments usually mark the culmination of a career if they're lucky. Ten years after their arrival, Wolfmother have returned with what could arguably be called their best work to date. With Victorious, Stockdale once again arrives right on time: in an era dominated by single-song downloads, this is an album worthy of repeat listens from top to bottom. Following 2009's Cosmic Egg and 2014's New Crown, the much anticipated Victorious (Universal Music Enterprises) is an electrifying testament to the range and depth of Stockdale's artistry. Recorded at Henson Studios in Los Angeles with two-time Grammy winning producer Brendan O'Brien (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Bruce Springsteen), the songs are edgy, inventive and uncompromising and rank among the band's best ever. With their return home, Wolfmother recently performed a series of stadium dates across Australia as guests of behemoth rock legends, Guns N' Roses (which also included GnR shows in USA, Singapore & New Zealand) Finally, Wolfmother return to home stages headlining their own shows with tour dates including Settlers Tavern!
