Checkerboard Lounge – (from Melbourne) – The brainchild of renowned singer and drummer Carl Pannuzzo, the band has evolved over thirty years, breathing fire, virtuosity and improvisation into classical souls and roots originals.

Northern Rivers based Matty Rogers doesn’t play music so much as he becomes possessed by it. With his band, he taps into the depth of his heart and weaves it into a dynamic musical experience of Americana blues-rock drenched in soul.

Olivia Ruth Band – Their signature sound embodies blues and rock, soulful, gritty, raw, elegant, and undeniably tasty. Throw in a bit of folk and funk, and you’ve got Olivia Ruth. We look forward to welcoming Olivia back to the Bush Stage by popular demand.

Neil & JB2 Band – rock, rhythm & blues.
The Neil and JB band play funky blues, soul and reggae flavoured original music.
They have a fun relaxed vibe when performing, and absolutely LOVE a bit of on-stage banter to help bring the audience into the show.

Back by popular demand after dancing in the dirt – Local band Forbidden Road can play most genres to suit all occasions. From Rock, Blues, Rock’ n Roll, Country and Pop.

Local Band the Marshall Brothers are a dynamic indie rock trio crafting fresh, infectious sounds. Last year, they lit up the stage alongside Chocolate Starfish, Kate Ceberano, and Leo Sayer at the Sounds of Rock Festival in Hervey Bay.

Local, Frank Benn once opened for the Black Sorrows. He has also written and recorded over thirty songs and sings jazz and blues, and everything else too. With his cool tones, he always draws a crowd.

Local, William Ramage brings a mix of acoustic guitar and vocals to the stage. His passion for music and dedication have allowed him to connect with audiences, making every event special.
