CONUNDRUM
For over 10 years Conundrum has excited diverse audiences across Australia
delivering Celtic dance music with driving rhythm and youthful energy.
Having performed at festivals and venues throughout Australia and
New Zealand they are a well-tuned and top class outfit. Their live
shows are energetic and will leave people dancing - albeit sometimes
in their seats! The band creates depth and freshness in their rendition
of traditional Celtic music without compromising the melodies and
rhythms that are so impressive in the first place. Playing traditional
music from Ireland, Brittany, Scotland and the Shetland Islands, they
also write and perform original tunes adding to the rich cultural
pool from which they draw their inspiration.
GRAHAM DODSWORTH
Graham Dodsworth takes us on a geographical tour through 19th &
early 20th century Victoria with songs that tell stories of the way
it was, including moving versions of 'Farewell to the Gold', 'Brunswick
Road' and 'Gentle
Annie'. Born in a brown coal mining town in rural Victoria, he began
performing folk songs during his teenage years and has been performing
at venues and festivals throughout Australia ever since. His feel
for the Australian folk genre generates a welcome buoyancy to favourite
bush songs and some of Australia's finest contemporary compositions.
