Dan’s original repertoire - ranging from soulful, searching ballads to rambunctious juke-joint grooves - draws on a wide range of blues styles, and on the rich vein of blues singer-songwriters, past and present.
“One of the most authentic blues voices on the scene, with a truly individual sound,” Helen Jennings PBS fm Anthony “Shorty” Shortte is an astoundingly original drummer whose feel is grounded in deep Southern grooves. With Collard Greens & Gravy, his rolling, infectious rhythms captivated audiences at gigs and festivals around the country for 20 years.

Appalachian mountain music without modern complications.

Seemingly a busking outfit, they prefer to entertain for the greater sake of humanity, generous in nature, singing original local tales and vintage standards in the acoustic street forum. Six part choruses and harmonies add to the singing, bowing, plucking and strumming of this old time string band’s genuine atmosphere.

Annie-Rose Maloney *Free Gig* 8:30pm
Annie-Rose Maloney will be bringing her unmistakable voice and quietly powerful songwriting to the stage as part of April's Brunswick Socials with Country Struts, performing at the Quadraphonics Club on April 30th, following the evening's boot scooting.
Annie-Rose Maloney writes country-ish music about the deep kernels of pain we all carry around in our pockets. Fast becoming an alt-folk favourite in the Australian scene, Annie-Rose has already supported the likes of Angel Olsen, Hurray For The Riff Raff, Andy Shauf and Angie McMahon, despite having only released her debut album ‘Circle Walking' in February 2025.
Raised on Wadawurrung Country with a piano in the house and a granny who yodelled at bedtime, Annie-Rose grew up inspired by the likes of K.D.Lang's ‘Hymns of the 49th Parallel', The Be Good Tanyas and The Waifs. After she played a single One Day International (ODI) for the Australia women's cricket team against India in July 2011, she started and ended her first award-winning band, Murdena, before spending the last decade honing her solo project - only now coming into fruition.
Annie-Rose has a simple ethos when it comes to writing a song. It must have a pulse, it must feel nice to sing, and it must bear a truthfulness about our human experiences. Her assured presence holds the audience gently as they move through moments of heartbreak, loneliness and elation.

His passion for vintage tunes and original recordings have driven him to amass a collection of hot jazz right out of the 1930s/40s, with a special place in his heart for Charlie Barnet, Gene Krupa, and Jimmie Lunceford. Tyler has been DJing since as soon as people would let him near the sound system, and enjoying every moment. Expect to hear a lot of happy, swinging tunes while Tyler is on deck.
