The Quagmires start the day with their unique Blues music . (3pm – 3:30pm).

………………………………………………………

Blue Sherlock (3:40pm – 4:10pm) – Blue Sherlock was born on Jeremy’s thighs, in a piece of trash Toyota Camry somewhere between Orange and the Mountains. A banger was blaring on the radio and his hands were going a million miles an hour on his trousers before the question was asked. “Why don’t you take up the drums?” Since then, Willem and Jeremy have been concocting the dirty, delicious, bluesy funk that is Blue Sherlock. Living proof that the Blues is alive, well, and ready to kick your teeth in.”

………………………………………………………

Ian Host on guitar and and Rob Thompson on harmonica (4:20 – 4:50) play a mix of Blues and Roots music.

………………………………………………………

Jeff Wilson with James Roy + Matt Skelton (5pm – 5:30pm) – From the post industrial north of England, Jeff has played the cool jazz clubs and then onto the Caribbean  jumping ship to play in the funky buenavista bars in Venezuela. Then on to the Blues bar in Bangkok and now with the fabulous James Roy on bass and Matt Skelton on drums and for want of a better name; the Jeff Wilson Band.

………………………………………………………

The Scarab Beatles- Ian Gilchrist & Michael Childs  (5:40pm  – 6:10pm) – Ian and Mike are both Blue Mountains residents and met at the Wednesday Open Mic night at the Family Hotel Katoomba. They joined forces over their shared love of Beatles music and the idea of the Scarab Beatles was born. Later they asked Dave on bass and Matt on drums to accompany them to complete a “Beatles type” band. This will be their first outing as a full band at the Lawson Community Hall this coming Saturday. Enjoy, its Fab Gear!!

………………………………………………………

Jim Jarvis (6:20pm – 7pm) – Well known and respected singer and guitarist. “He has a polish and finesse of a fine, traditional and world class blues musician and is recognised by those in the know as one of Australia’s finest finger-picking guitarists and blues singers”. – Dermott Ryder(2MBSFM)
