The Fagans,  from the Blue Mountains (NSW)

From the cutting edge of Australia’s political and protest singing, the Fagans are Australia’s best known and most respected keepers of the political tradition.

Margaret & Bob Fagan began their musical journey together in Canberra in the late 1960s. They perform at all the major festivals around Australia, the UK and Ireland, both as a duo and as members of their international famous family band, The Fagans. Their strong blend of politically-edged traditional and contemporary songs combined with lyrical ballads and great choruses is guaranteed to lift your spirits. Their repertoire is firmly rooted in the folk tradition, with Margaret’s pure voice and Bob’s superb guitar playing and vocals combining to ensure their popularity both here and abroad.

The Karen Law Trio, (the youngsters) from the Glasshouse Mountains/Sunshine Coast in Qld

Mum Karen started her musical journey in the folk clubs of northern England before moving to Australia in 1995. Known then as Karen Burton, she was a travelling musician with songs and stories of her life on the road and more. Her first album ‘A Point on the Map’ received radio airplay across Australia. Then she moved to Queensland and had a family. Now son and daughter have grown up and have joined the family band. At home singing on stage or round the kitchen table, this family of musicians from the Sunshine Coast presents a multi-generational show of award-winning songs and uplifting spirit. Karen received the Alistair Hulett Songwriting Award for songs with a theme of social justice in 2020 for her environmental song ‘Wildflower Woman’.

Don’t miss it!  The event will be Covid Safe, of course.  ALL welcome.
