High & Lonesome - Irish Murphys

The High & Lonesome all-singing and dancing high in the saddle big band is a monthly Thursday regular at Irish Murphys until the end of the year.

They’ve built a bit of a following and the crowds just seem to be getting better, as are all the High & Lonesome boys as they pump out a pretty solid night of tight arrangements, fine instrumental work, three part vocal harmonies and a big driving bottom end as Yardup and Reinhart kick along a rocking rhythm on skins and doghouse bass.

With Chips, Chopsticks and Slim taking care of the singing and swapping instruments, Mr Russell Spiller can be found at his finest – totally winging it. The boys have pretty much decided they don’t need to rehearse with Russell as it just confuses him.

A great night of classic covers, folk, country and bluegrass done as only they can. Attracting punters of all ages to Geelong’s best roots music venue, Irish Murphys. The craic is 100.
