Turramurra 07 - Saturday Night Camp Session - Slim, Yardup & Reinhart

A musical conversation between Yardup, Slim and The Hatless Wonder recorded Saturday night at the Turramurra Folk Music Camp, 2007. With young Jack tucked up in bed, a whiskey or two under the belt, the boys run through some finger-picking songs and discuss stories behind the music – Gillian Welch, Johnny Cash, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Keiran Kane and Kevin Welch.

Wouldn't Mind Dying. The Cornhuskers present a fresh and eclectic look at American country roots music from the 1940s and ’50s. Featuring lovely harmonies and a vibrant, stripped-back acoustic sound, this lonesome and heartbroken blend cuts straight to the quick. Performing the music of Merle Travis, Johnny Cash, Bob Wills, Hank Williams and Doc Watson, to name a few, this diverse and original acoustic group packs a real punch with both their instrumental flair and ‘straight up’ delivery!

Recorded at St Pat’s Hall on Sunday March 11, 2007.

Window Slider contemporary fiddle tune. Respected contemporary folk musicians Scott and Louisa Wise and their three daughters Ruth (17), Lucy (16) and Rowena (13) make up this heartwarming family band. Recently written up in the UK’s Roots Magazine (”a family that plays together really plays together”), the Wises put out a lot of energy with 5 part harmonies, tunes and songs in a diverse range of traditional styles - whatever sounds good to them!
