Our First Online Concert:
Chloe and Jason Roweth
– 7 p.m. Saturday 2 May
Chloë & Jason Roweth are not just amazingly popular whenever they’ve played at the Troubadour. They are true national treasures, the most well recognised and highly awarded performers of Australian traditional and folk music. With an amazing catalogue of great recordings they have all the skills and equipment to bring us a unique and special concert from their home in Millthorpe, on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range.
In this Troubadour premier online concert, they will be performing live, with stories, verses as well as presenting a selection of the songs from their upcoming CD ‘Phonograph Jack’ and a few of their other favourites. Keep your fingers crossed, as there may even be a performance from the upcoming talent in their family!
Tickets are:
- Free (for those who can’t or don’t wish to pay)
- $5 ‘reserved seats’ for individual viewers;
- $10 ‘luxury seats’ for households;
- $15 ‘sponsorship tickets’.

BC: See below for our fabulous final concert in February (a suitably wonderful night) and what we had planned till June 2020 till this virus changed everything…
Mic Conway and Robbie Long
In a circus of comedy, music and magic, Mic Conway and flat-picking guitar champion Robbie Long present an hilarious array of idiosyncratic songs that will make your jaw drop, toes tap and sides split. Best known for his tongue-in-cheek humour as lead singer of The Captain Matchbox Whoopee Band, there’s also juggling, fire-eating, magic and mayhem. Stripped back, irreverent, and shameless… this is surreal vaudeville for crooning and swooning.
ARIA award-winning Mic Conway is a singer, actor, musician, song writer, fire eater, magician, tap dancer, juggler and more. With his brother Jim, Mic founded the Captain Matchbox Whoopee Band in 1970 which became a cult phenomenon, recording seven records, two of which achieved gold status. Mic went on to create the Soapbox Circus, which became the now world famous Circus Oz of which he was a founding member. Mic has toured across Australia, Britain, USA, New Zealand and Asia delighting audiences of all ages. He has written and recorded many albums and worked across the board in theatre, music, cabaret, television and film. Mic appears in a fabulous duet with the great Robbie Long, one of Australia’s best guitarists and a Troubadour fave.
