The Weeping Willows:

The Weeping Willows, Andrew Wrigglesworth and Laura Coates, are a couple of old souls, steeped in bluegrass tradition and draped in gothic Americanaimagery.  To Andrew, the acoustic guitar is the object that hangs permanently from his shoulders. Laura, for her part, stays as busy as a post-war housewife; complementing her partner’s skill with a voice that ranges from sugar-sweet to evangelically piercing, whilst occasionally adding a little accordion or autoharp on the side.  They regale their audience with stories of sunshine and romance, God and The Devil, murder and decay.  Real music.

Mitch Power:

After spending the better part of ten years earning his stripes as sideman, Mitch Power thought the time was right to see what it was like being out there all by himself. Mitch has gained a wealth of experience touring around Australia and internationally with Deep Street Soul, Kylie Auldist, The Abyssinians (JAM) and many more, playing shows in New York, Europe and the world renowned Glastonbury Music Festival. Drawing on inspiration from the greats of alt country andAmericana, Mitch has left his Paisley telecasters at home and opted for the acoustic instead to tell his tales of friendships, travel and that feeling you can only get when coming home to Melbourne.
