Great Line-up at Bar Open tonight


For all you guys in Melbourne - a great night planned at Bar Open tonight (29th November)

AUSTIN
TOM WOODWARD(ACT)
VORN DOOLETTE(S.A)
For lovers of the thriving local roots scene in Melbourne this would have to be one of the line-ups of the year, and a not to be missed event. Most notably it's Liz Stringer who has been carving it up in this town, with her commanding vocals and often deeply reflective lyrics, not to mention her unbelievable instrumental chops on Banjo, Lap steel, and Guitar. Stringer will join Jordie Lane on stage as a duo, gracing the audience with their powerful harmony's and emotive songs. Mr. Lane has been a busy boy since performing at Port Fairy in March, playing 120 shows, most recently supporting Aria winner Gotye and Jeff Lang, and an East Coast Tour with The Basics. Headlining the night is Austin. A performer whose reputation as an outstanding and unique musician is growing rapidly since he hit the local scene. He is currently touring his just released live cd. Also rounding out the bill are interstate troubadours Tom Woodward from Canberra who has been described as 'the product of a DNA experiment between Dylan and Nick Cave', and Vorn Doolette from Adelaide, who's Sinatra-like voice and song-writing skills have been a major draw-card for festival organisers around the country, including Melbourne's own Queenscliff Music Festival, which he shall be appearing at this November.
