Country Dance @ Barcaldine, Queensland

We’ve just got back from an amazing weekend playing up at Barcaldine, Queensland. The amazing Amanda from St Joseph’s school- with 36 students- wanted to get everyone from the school and the community out to enjoy a night together and she arranged the whole night, and with the support of the local council, the school, local businesses and the Queensland Regional Arts Development Fund, she flew us up to do a dance for them as well as a fantastic song-writing workshop with the kids.
Brilliant weekend!

 

Wedding @ Arcadia

It’s always a special privilege to play at people’s weddings and this one, for David and Amanda, was no exception and here’s what they sent us afterwards…

We just wanted to say a huge thank-you for helping us celebrate our wedding!

Prior to the wedding we found you were very eager to answer all our questions and make the planning go as smoothly as possible- which it did! On the day the guests were raving about your professional and relaxed manner– they loved arriving to soft acoustic music. Two friends commented that “It was great, sitting on the grass with a beer in hand watching them go!”.

Although I wasn’t involved with lots of the minor details on the night from my perspective it seemed as if people were working well, sharing the stage/ equipment etc. People loved the way the music changed as night fell as things started to pick up. A huge favourite of mine was the called dancing- everyone was laughing and having such a great time. If my husband wasn’t so eager to leave I would have loved to keep dancing! The only complaint we had from guests was that the party ended too early…but the said even 4am in the morning would be too soon!

Our first dance was lovely, thankyou for helping us with that. That song holds a special place in my husband’s heart and it will continue to do so! If we ever get married again (hopefully not!!!) we would book you!

Thanks again,

David and Amanda
