HAWKES, WASHINGMACHINE & MARSH
The “Genres of the Gypsies” tour is a celebration of original jazz, blues, folk & Celtic music Hawkes, Washingmachine & Marsh are none other than Pete Hawkes (acoustic guitar, vocals), George Washingmachine (fiddle) and Christian Marsh (harmonica), legends on their respective instruments, three seasoned international players at the height of their powers joining forces to showcase the compositional talent of Pete’s original jazz, blues, folk and Celtic music in one and only one Oz tour.
Be prepared for an onslaught in lilting Gypsy jazz fiddle, thundering Celtic reels, wailing blues harmonia and sizzling slide as these three wield their instruments of mass distraction together for the first time as one united force. Not only this, but at times the gypsies will be joined with special guests. That Tele man himself. Electric Guitar virtuoso Richard Steele and, then on occasions (larger venues) even a full string quartet.
This is a unique combination, and even though each player has toured the globe they have not until now united together and possibly they will never again. A one time opportunity to see three legends (and more) playing a rich, evocative, diverse palette of original music cooked up and served hot! This is must see for every real music lover.
THE GO TWOS
The Go Twos are a dynamic band blending the rich musical traditions that are modern acoustic 'AltFolk', Fronted by accomplished musician and vocalist Rosie McDonald , known for her rhythmic guitar work and soulful alto voice, multi instrumentalist Ann Palumbo brings powerful double bass grooves, mandolin and sublime vocals and harmonies to the mix, along with Quentin Fraser, a versatile musician whose mastery on Dobro and flat picked and electric guitar add depth and vibrancy to their performance . All well know in their own right and through various line ups, the collective musical pedigree is impressive.
The Go Twos began as a collaboration between Rosie her true love and life partner Nigel Lever - renowned Bluegrass guitarist, mandolin player and singer who tragically and unexpectedly passed away in Dec 2025.
The culmination of their work was the lovingly crafted album Kurrawarra that will finally be launched in 2026. The Go Twos trio will launch the album along with other favourite songs and tunes at the Shack.
The Go Twos continue to carve a unique place in the contemporary folk scene, having performed as a quartet at many festivals and now as a trio, having recently played at St Albans Folk festival and Winter Fest.
NARROWNECKS
With American old time string band roots, Narrownecks are based in Sydney, Australia. Fiddler David Hoffmann (USA) is a multi-generation old time musician, and has been surrounded by the music of the Appalachian mountains since he was in the womb. Clawhammer banjo player Harry O'Donovan (CHW) has brought a love for Indian and world music to the folk scene, and incorporates his traditional frailing banjo style and exceptional ear to fill out the melodies.
