The Highly Strung Rock and Roll Orchestra`
Back at the Troubadour

 

After a sell-out show in February 2020, their fans have pleaded for a repeat performance. Now Highly Strung will be back in early 2022 for a special appearance at Everglades. Don’t miss it. Put the date in your diary now and get to Everglades Country Club early to be sure of a good seat on the night.

The lineup of the Highly Strung Rock and Roll Orchestra (HSRRO) is enough to excite any music lover!  Our very own local virtuoso Mary O’Mahony and Bernadette (sisters-in-law) each play electrifying violins while Stella is lead vocalist and woodwind section, and Justin (Bernadette’s husband, Stella’s Dad and Mary’s brother) supplies the rest of the band’s sound through his amazing acoustic guitar playing.  With strong male and female lead vocals along with 4 part harmonies, this is a powerful and very popular orchestra!

The band forged its reputation in Sydney during the 1980s as Hat Trick. The signature sound they established at that time combines contemporary rock with Irish and Classical music. Throughout that decade music lovers pursued the band from venues such as their local pub/wine bar/club, to nationwide television performances on Ray Martin’s Midday Show, Kerri-Anne Kennerley’s Morning Show and Clive Robertson’s Newsworld.

The event will be Covid Safe, of course.
