  Sunday 18 March 2012 8.00pm Booking No. 10 $32/$26 Brunswick Town Hall Doors Open: 7.15pm KRISTINA OLSEN One of the most entertaining and compelling performers on the folk circuit, Kristina Olsen is a superb multi-instrumentalist as well as an award winning singer songwriter. Her big bluesy voice, delightful rapport with audiences and her mix of powerful songs ranging from sassy bottleneck blues to lilting ballads to swing jazz to "raunch and roll' (as well as her hilarious storytelling) makes for a diverse and satisfying musical experience. Kristina has strong ties to Australia and recently took the plunge, tied the knot and became an Australian citizen. Her songs have also been attracting the notice of other high profile artists including as Eric Bibb, Fairport Convention, Maddy Prior, Mary Coughlan and Mollie O'Brien. > Find out more: Website | MySpace SARA TINDLEY Byron Bay based Sara Tindley is one of Australia's best country/roots singers and songwriters with a wonderful gift for writing funny, true and tender songs and a voice that sings straight to the heart. Her new album 'Time", co-produced by South Australian alt-country darlings The Yearlings, is the much anticipated follow-up to her critically acclaimed album 'Lucky the Sun' (produced by Bill Chambers). A storyteller of the highest order, Tindley combines the emotional honesty of country music with the unadorned melodies and musicality of Australian roots and folk music. These are modern songs with a country lilt. "Tindley shows shades of Paul Kelly while sticking to a
Lucinda Williams-esque sound that's about as sweet as anything to
come out of the country for quite some time…compulsory listening
for all supporters of Australian roots music" "Pure, affecting, honest and intuitive Australian country
songs."
