Join fellow Australians and this year’s Australia Day Ambassador, Mike Brady to celebrate Australia Day in the historic township of Birregurra. Enjoy "Australiana" entertainment, including the "Australian day Shears" sheep shearing competition, working dog demonstrations, market stalls, live music, free sausage sizzle and children's activities.

High & Lonesome will be playing a special set of on-mic styled blugrass Australiana in the park around 1.00 pm.

The boys are chuffed to be invited to perform at this year's Birregurra Street Festival. We've played there a few times over the years and are back in favour with the new MDs.

It will be all instruments a blazin' when the six-gun sextet fire up on the flat bed at their one-mic finest. You gotta see 'em to believe it!

Oh yeah, and while you're there, enjoy the finest produce the Otways has to offer. It's all happening - a great day in the country, 40 minutes from Geelong.

The boys will be at their Bluegrass pickin' One-Mic best for their second appearance at the 11th Kelly Country Pick in Beechworth, Aug 21-23.

The Kelly Country Pick is a winter Bluegrass and Old Time Country Music Convention based in the historic town of Beechworth. It began in 1999 as an annual get together between a few pickers and families from Victoria and NSW for a relaxed music weekend. It now attracts some 300-500 musicians and patrons and is growing steadily.

The convention is based in the historic ‘Old Priory’ – a 19th century catholic convent converted into a modern accommodation facility. Evening concerts also take place in the local hotels.  read more »
