SUMMARY:ELO Electric Light Orchestra Tribute
DESCRIPTION:Hailing from Sydney’s Northern Beaches\, All Over The World is a six-piece tribute to Electric Light Orchestra — one of the most innovative and enduring forces in orchestral rock. For five years\, the band has brought ELO’s rich\, layered sound to life with precision and passion\, performing to enthusiastic audiences across Australia. \nFronted by Dion on vocals— whose voice captures the warmth\, nuance\, and unmistakable tone of Jeff Lynne — the group delivers faithful\, dynamic renditions of ELO’s greatest hits. Backed by seasoned musicians\, they recreate the lush textures and soaring harmonies that defined a genre and influenced generations. \nELO didn’t just play rock — they reimagined it\, blending classical instrumentation with pop sensibility and studio innovation to create something truly unique. All Over The World honours that legacy with performances of Mr. Blue Sky\, Living Thing\, Evil Woman\, Don’t Bring Me Down\, Sweet Talkin’ Woman\, Strange Magic\, Xanadu\, Telephone Line\, Last Train to London\, Shine a Little Love\, and more — all rendered with care\, clarity\, and the spirit of the originals. \nWhether you’re rediscovering ELO or hearing their genius for the first time\, All Over The World offers a compelling\, musically rich tribute to a band that still stands tall in the pantheon of rock history.

SUMMARY:John Reischman & The Jaybirds
DESCRIPTION:Like the powerful mandolinist and composer at its helm\, John Reischman and the Jaybirds fashion a stylish take on bluegrass that seamlessly blends original songs and instrumentals with Appalachian old-time music for a truly unique band sound. Now in their 20th year\, with seven acclaimed albums and two Juno nominations\, the Jaybirds are simultaneously innovative and unadorned\, sophisticated and stripped-down\, happily old-fashioned and 21st-century contemporary. \nBluegrass Unlimited calls John Reischman “one of the world’s undisputed masters” of the mandolin\, famed for outstanding tone and taste. Many of his dozens of original instrumentals have become popular favourites for sessions and covers\, such as the jam standard Saltspring. He has three critically-acclaimed solo instrumental albums and has recorded on many other projects\, including the Grammy-winning True Life Blues: The Songs of Bill Monroe. John also plays Latin-based jazz and choro music with highly regarded finger-style acoustic guitarist/composer John Miller; the duo has released three superb albums. \nJohn began his career in the San Francisco Bay area in the early ’80s with the eclectic Good Ol’ Persons bluegrass band. He was an original member of the legendary “new acoustic” quartet\, the jazz-influenced Tony Rice Unit\, renowned for highly skilled instrumentals. John moved to Vancouver in the early ’90s and in 1999 formed the Jaybirds. Of their latest album\, Folk Radio UK said “On That Other Green Shore showcases an accomplished\, experienced band at the peak of their powers\, with musicianship of the very highest order.” Peghead Nation called it “one of the most beguiling bluegrass-rooted recordings of 2017.” \nLos Angeles\, CA-based guitarist Patrick Sauber joined the Jaybirds in 2017. The veteran performer has played with\, among others\, Doc Watson\, Richard Greene\, John Jorgensen\, Peter Rowan\, Tim O’Brien and John Fogerty. He played on the 2016 Grammy-nominated album The Hazel and Alice Sessions by Laurie Lewis\, and appeared in the film A Mighty Wind with Christopher Guest. Bluegrass Unlimited describes Patrick’s playing on John’s tune Daylighting the Creek as “a glorious flatpicking solo that hews back to the glory days of early bluegrass guitar.” \nChilliwack\, BC-based Trisha Gagnon is portrayed by Sing Out! as “one of the most versatile” and “irresistible” lead vocalists in bluegrass\, her strong and distinctive style ranging from “mournful and plaintive” to “hopeful and yearning.” Trisha anchors what Dirty Linen magazine calls “gorgeous three-part harmonies.” She’s also known for songwriting\, dating back to her early days with the award-winning B.C. bluegrass band Tumbleweed. Her solo album includes guests Vince Gill and Peter Rowan. \nNanaimo\, BC-based Nick Hornbuckle has developed his own voice on the five-string banjo – a two-finger roll unlike other contemporary banjo players. “Nick Hornbuckle’s banjo can be downright spine-tingling\,” said the L.A Daily News. His solo album 12×2 (+/-1)\, was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award in 2015\, and Nick is a composer who also digs for rare old-time gems. His sprightly instrumental Wellesley Station on the new Jaybird album “showcases Nick’s sharp picking and sense of melody\,” said Green Man Review. \nSpokane\, WA-based Greg Spatz is hailed as a “world-class bluegrass fiddler” by Fiddler Magazine. Audiophile Audition says Greg’s “virtuosic playing is flawlessly delivered time after time\,” while Bluegrass Unlimited says he “lays down some seriously fine bluegrass fiddle” on the latest Jaybirds release. His strong chops have made him a popular fixture down through the years on the West Coast\, where he’s played with iconic mandolinist Frank Wakefield\, resophonic guitar master Rob Ickes\, and many others including Laurie Lewis\, Bryan Bowers\, and Eli West and Cahalen Morrison. Greg also plays and records with Mighty Squirrel\, has a solo album called Fiddler’s Dream and a duo recording with his wife called All Along the Sea\, and is an award-winning novelist.

SUMMARY:Tell Mama! - Janis Joplin by Karise Eden | Avoca Beach Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Since helping redefine rock more than half a century ago\, Janis Joplin has never stopped finding new audiences. In Tell Mama!\, ARIA Award winner Karise Eden revives the spirit and extraordinary legacy of one of rock’s most influential voices in a powerful live concert experience. \nRather than an impersonation\, Tell Mama! is Karise’s deeply personal interpretation of the artist whose music has shaped her own journey. The evening begins with an intimate acoustic set inspired by Janis’s early folk-blues recordings before building into a full-scale concert featuring Karise’s powerhouse band and a three-piece brass section. \nFrom iconic anthems including Piece of My Heart\, Cry Baby\, Move Over\, Try (Just a Little Bit Harder) and Me and Bobby McGee\, to lesser-known gems that reveal Janis’s remarkable artistry\, the production celebrates a catalogue that remains as vital today as ever. \nThe show also features Karise’s original song\, Tomorrow\, inspired by Janis’s Kozmic Blues\, creating a moving bridge between two artists united by fearless emotional honesty and a shared belief in music’s power to tell the truth. \nFollowing sold-out performances\, Tell Mama! is more than a celebration of an icon. It is a revival of timeless songs through the voice of one of Australia’s most distinctive performers. \nWhether you’ve loved Janis for decades or are discovering her for the first time\, Tell Mama! proves great songs never belong to just one generation. \nConcession tickets are for Health Care Card Holders Only

SUMMARY:Things Of Stone & Wood - The Final Forest Album Launch
DESCRIPTION:Nearly 40 years ago a rag-tag bunch of folkies got together and formed a band called Things of Stone and Wood that went on to define Melbourne in the early 90s. Off the back of their top 10 single ‘Happy Birthday Helen’\, the band achieved national success\, ARIA and APRA awards\, international tours\, a gold album ‘The Yearning’ and even a Late Show parody\, kicking off a career that would make them one of Australia’s most loved and enduring acoustic bands. \nFast forward to 2026 and the band are still here\, doing what they do best: playing passionate and energetic live shows\, and recording and releasing new music. November sees the band touring their second album for the year\, the 70’s retro inspired The Final Forest. \nThe Final Forest is the twin album to their March 2026 Album Rae Street\, which debuted at #10 on the ARIA Australian Album chart). It’s a classic\, band-in-the-studio approach (rather than bedroom folk) with all the authenticity and TOSAW vibes\, built upon the simple foundation of a piano trio playing live. Era appropriate close harmonies feature heavily\, reminding us that they began their life as a band drinking beers and singing in a share house. It is charming\, a little rough\, and almost impossible not to feel the love. \nThe band will be launching The Final Forest with select shows around the country. They will debut the new tunes (as well as Rae Street ‘almost new’ tunes) alongside classic radio hits like “Happy Birthday Helen”\, “Wildflowers”\, “Rock This Boat” and “Share This Wine”. \nCome on down and see how this band\, with two albums and two tours for 2026 continue hold their place as one of “Melbourne’s most inspired and inspiring acoustic band[s]” (Michael Dwyer).
