 |
| The Fairbridge Festival will be held in Fairbridge Village, South West Highway, Pinjarra, Western Australia from April 26th to 28th. The event is an annual family-friendly celebration of folk, world and roots music in a traffic-free, self-contained, heritage-listed village and includes almost 100 acts. Performers include quartet I Viaggiatori (The Voyagers – pictured below) is a bit of an Aussie world/folk supergroup which features accordionist David De Santi. They play a charming combination of Italian standards, original songs by Mazzella and a touching version of ‘Waltzing Matilda’. Accordionist David De Santi will also run a “Good Tunes Session”. He has been accumulating ‘good’ tunes for over 30 years and wants to share them! Be ready for a musical tour around Australia, Italy, Quebec, Scotland, Scandinavia, Spain, France, Ireland, England and beyond! Sheet music available or use your ear to join in. Mànran, which features accordionist Gary Innes will play at the festival opening and again throughout the event, entertaining with a combination of folk-rock, trad-rock and Celtic-rock. “Bluegrass Slowjam” will organise and run an acoustic bluegrass slow jam, playing standard bluegrass at a friendly pace in a relaxed, inclusive environment.
