Comedy cabaret duo Shortis and Simpson, continue their series of shows based on the musical influences of a guest. This time it’s Dorothy-Jane (DJ) Gosper, a dedicated contributor to the heart and soul of Blues and Roots music in Canberra for a quarter of a century. Her brand of Blues shines through her singing, song-writing and harmonica playing in many acts including The Blues Cowgirls, KarismaKatz, the Hot Flush Blues Band, Jeff & Deej and Divine Devilles.

In Under the Influence, Shortis and Simpson lead her through the songs, the singers, the songwriters, the stories that have influenced her life of music. Informative, entertaining, surprising, dramatic and chock-a-block with great music!

This event is run with generous assistance from the ACT Government’s AMP IT UP Fund.
