SUMMARY:Jenny Biddle
DESCRIPTION:Whether listening to her albums or witnessing this diminutive songstress live on stage\, you are humbled by a raw honesty. The intense and somewhat complex style of Jenny’s music touches upon many issues that affect us all… love\, loss\, fears\, hopes – all the challenges life throws at us. And she’s willing to share and let us in. In fact\, she’s so damn honest she even talks about her lies! She describes herself as “Missy Higgins meets The Waifs\, with some mesmerising guitar voyages and facial expressions thrown in.” In truth\, her songs are just so deeply personal\, inspiring an incredibly moving listening experience. \n  \n“She wraps herself around a self-made acoustic guitar\, like a marriage between body and instrument\, her most honest core is released as she commands the guitar to talk “with uncommon skill and absolute self-assurance”\n~ Syke\, 2013 \n

SUMMARY:Jed Rowe CD Launch
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed singer/songwriter/guitarist Jed Rowe has performed across Australia and Europe\, but he still calls The Dandenong Ranges home. \nRowe returns to Selby Folk Club to launch his third album The Last Day Of Winter. Enlisting ARIA award winner Jeff Lang for the second time as producer\, Rowe also brought in Cat Canteri and Justin Bernasconi of The Stillsons. The result is a diverse collection of songs which focus on Rowe’s deft touch with story and melody\, with an emotional depth that resonates after the final note falls away. Rowe’s guitar talents are pushed to new heights by both Lang’s and Bernasconi’s supporting guitar roles\, and three part vocal harmonies reign throughout. \nThe son of two musicians\, Jed Rowe grew up in rural NSW and relocated to Melbourne in 2003. He showed early promise as an author\, winning a national undergraduate short story writing award. Now a festival regular\, Rowe has performed at Tamworth Country Music Festival\, Port Fairy Folk Festival and Thredbo Blues Festival amongst many others. \nJed will perform with Cat Canteri on harmony vocals and percussion\, with support from eclectic Yarra Ranges trio The Anecdote. \nRowe stands out in the pack… Jeff Lang returns as producer with Cat Canteri and Justin Bernasconi (The Stillsons)… The communion is a perfect fit for Rowe’s songs.\n~ Rhythms Magazine 2015.

With the addition of their own material they strive to bring something unique to every performance. Saoirse will give an audience a little bit off everything\, heart wrenching love songs\, beautiful ballads\, hand clapping toe tapping jig’s and reel’s and even some Irish step dancing to get the place jumping. \nThe band includes Bernadette O’Neill on bodhran and vocals\, Kerry McManus on Accordion\, whistle and vocals\, Sile Coleman on guitar and vocals and Anthony O’Neill on guitar and fiddle. \n

SUMMARY:Bruce Watson & Tracey Roberts
DESCRIPTION:Bruce is a favourite at music festivals all over Australia and is one of this country’s best song writers – a wordsmith who writes and performs with humanity\, heart and humour. With his wide knowledge of historical events and strong sense of social justice\, he will have you wowing at his linguistic prowess\, shedding a tear at his poignant pieces and laughing your head off at some of his musical and lyrical antics. Always a colourful performance. \nTracey is a warm\, smooth\, eloquent singer\, a gorgeous pianist\, and a passionate and captivating performer. She has played in many concerts and festivals\, internationally\, in Australia and her beloved Dandenong Ranges with a variety of musicians and musical genres\, predominantly jazz-infused folk.

Their performances have included Melbourne’s iconic Boite\, Ranges Concert Lounge\, Wyreena and the Maldon Folk Festival. \nAlternating their songs\, they accompany each other\, harmonise\, laugh a lot and make really beautiful music together. \n \n\n

SUMMARY:The Big Sing
DESCRIPTION:September at Selby Folk club is a celebration of song. This year we are thrilled to present some groups knocking ’em dead at a cappella festivals across the country along with some local favourites. \nCo-cheol\n \n  \nThe name Co-cheòl means harmony in Scots-Gaelic\, and when it comes to this crew\, it could not be more true to form. With voices from other-worldly places\, these four lasses with seriously luscious harmonising skills will take you on a journey to the lands of the Celts and beyond with their gorgeous arrangements of soaring airs. \nMembers of this multi-award winning group include Claire Patti\, Georgina Walton and twins Merrily and Ginger Hansen. Since they started singing together in October 2013\, they have performed at folk festivals around the country\, won first place in the AUS-ACA Victorian State Championships\, were Runners Up in the National AUS-ACA Championships and received the prestigious Peter J Daly Memorial Award for the ‘Best Up-Coming Celtic Act’ at the National Folk Festival in 2015.\n \n  \nPlatinum Quartet\nThe effervescent Platinum Quartet have entertained crowds at public and private functions all over town. They competed for the first time at the SAI National Competition in Sydney in 2014. Besides all things Barbershop and bling\, they also share a love of animals – and have 6 cats\, a dog and a vet between them! \nPlatinum Quartet formed around Christmas time in 2012 when best buddies and long-time singing duo\, Deb Neilsen and Kerry Haddow got together with fellow Lead & Vocal Vibes member Alison Brown. Deb’s sister-in-law\, Margot Thorne was cajoled into just having a go and she did\, and the quartet was complete. \n  \nSupported by local favourites Sweet Sassafras and VoKallista\n \n \n\n

SUMMARY:Liz Frencham & Robbie Melville
DESCRIPTION:Think ‘Jazz/folk bass diva’ or ‘Wine-soaked love child of James Taylor and Julie London’. From sultry sass to raw intimacy\, with a little side order of irreverent humour! \nLiz first crossed paths with  Robbie in a rural Victorian café  in 2013 and soon they were seeking out opportunities to play together. From their first rehearsal it was evident that a lengthy musical relationship was on the cards. The obvious chemistry between the pair is intensified by a willingness to never play any song the same way twice. Frencham’s warmth is met by Melville’s beautiful harmonic dissonances\, and every nuance is distinct. \nOther successful collaborations Liz has been involved with include FrenchamSmith\, Jigzag & Dev’lish Mary and she continues to maintain a career as a respected accompanist\, producer and arranger both onstage and in the recording studio.  Her diverse gang of artists both national and international including While &  Matthews(UK)\, Gregory Page(US) \, Wouter Kellerman(Africa)\, Kristina Olsen(USA) and Mic Conway is ever expanding. \nAlways a luminous and generous presence\, Liz Frencham possesses that unique ability to hold an audience fondly in the palm of her hand. \n\n\n\n\nFrencham has a voice with all the appeal\, emotional honesty and clarity of someone like Shawn Colvin or Mary Chapin Carpenter. Yes\, really\, she is that good.” ~ Bruce Elder\, Sydney Morning Herald\n\n\n\nLiz Frencham is an ornament to music. The complete package: a superb song-writer\, sings like an angel\, and when Liz is on stage with one of her double-basses\, it’s like two parts of the one whole.” ~ RiotACT Online

SUMMARY:Abbie Cardwell
DESCRIPTION:Armed with her tenor banjo\, guitar\, ukulele\, harmonica and voice Abbie naturally writes songs that pay homage to the genres of her influences. Creating music from acoustic roots\, alt-country\, Americana to even vintage Mariachi rock and Spaghetti Western!? (Yup\, she sings a bit in Spanish too) Abbie keeps herself busy performing solo or with one of her several bands in Australia and Mexico. \nAbbie has “mastery of any style\, vindicating her title as ‘The Belle of Rootsy-Rockabilly-Twang’ (dB Mag) and has naturally attracted a string of songwriting awards to her collection of independently released albums. \nBold moves are Cardwells’ style. Which was her biggest you ask? Perhaps it was flying to Mexico on a ‘gut instinct’ to find a band to work with (sans Spanish & contacts) which consequently led to several collaborated albums\, tours and continued work. Or perhaps it was creating a 10 piece vintage Mexican Rocanrol band in Melbourne?. \nCurrently residing between friends and family’s driveways along the Australian East Coast with her beloved Toyota Hiace van Lady Luck Abbie is excitedly working on her next solo album release. (More to be revealed soon\, but yes…expect alt-country-americana with a pinch of mexican hot-sauce!) \n“Abbie Cardwell proves why she is truly one of Australia’s greatest female talents … Her range of musical talents are truly on show\, from deep\, unique songwriter to multi-instrumentalist\, she has every stone turned” ~ DB Magazine \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:The Bean Project
DESCRIPTION:Emerging from the forests of Belgrave come vibrant brass-clad acoustic duo The Bean Project. Featuring guitar and French horn\, The Bean Project encompass the territory of folk\, jazz and singer-songwriter genres\, showcasing a distinctly unique style of original material. \nAfter playing together in various acts\, Ben and Bryce focused their attention on something more raw and untreated\, forming The Bean Project at the beginning of 2014.

SUMMARY:Jed Rowe
DESCRIPTION:Jed has been busy touring his new album\, The Last Day of Winter. Whilst the new record retains his  signature electric slide guitar playing\, he has expanded his creative palette beyond the power trio format of bass\, drums and guitars by bringing in Cat Canteri and Justin Bernasconi of The Stillsons. The result is a diverse collection of songs which focus on Rowe’s deft touch with story and melody\, with an emotional depth that resonates after the final note falls away. \nThe son of two musicians\, Jed Rowe grew up in rural NSW and relocated to Melbourne in 2003. He showed early promise as an author\, winning a national undergraduate short story writing award. He released a solo EP Life (2006) before forming The Jed Rowe Band and releasing two albums: Midnight Sun (2009) and The Ember And The Afterglow (2012)\, which was produced by ARIA Winner Jeff Lang. His work has garnered critical acclaim and national radio airplay\, and he was awarded a highly competitive Arts Victoria contemporary music grant in 2012.

In 2014 Rowe toured internationally for the first time\, playing 25 solo dates in Europe in just 24 days. \n  \n \nSupport Act\nTina Nabb CD Launch\nAfter winning the Maldon Minstrel Award in 2015\, Tina went into producing her first CD Town And Country. Her songwriting style ranges from black comedy to social commentary\, and is characterized by a strong narrative. Topics include cyber bullying\, how to handle the undead\, domestic martyrdom\, and making rash decisions. Tina performs her songs at folk clubs\, open mic nights\, and other events in and around Victoria’s Dandenong Ranges. \nTina discovered her musical mojo when the kids left home and she bought her first ukulele. Then she went to a songwriting workshop and found the perfect avenue for her prose.

SUMMARY:Jenny Biddle
DESCRIPTION:It’s been a year since Jenny Biddle left Oz to live in sunny Scotland and practise the art of making a woodstove fire with wet wood. Now with new material and old favourites\, she’ll be touring Oz across summer and\, of course\, stopping off at Selby Folk Club. \nWith five albums under her belt and an iTunes chart-topping single\, indie folk/blues songsmith\, Jenny Biddle\, wraps herself around her guitar\, and like a marriage between body and instrument\, she commands the guitar to talk “with uncommon skill and absolute self-assurance” (Syke\, 2013). Her audience is compelled to join her on a voyage of passion and story in song. \nLive on stage\, with “a banter which is honest\, direct\, personal\, affectionate\, funny and utterly engaging” she has “that peculiar knack for making a large space like a lounge room” (Syke\, 2013)\, her audience laughs and cries in all the right places. There is an indisputable sophistication in her lyrics that touches upon issues that affect us all; love\, loss\, hopes and fears\, but also delves into the dark honesty of eating disorders\, sexuality\, depression\, only to be lifted by her unexpected comical interjections between songs. The guitar nuts are astounded by her ability to intertwine bass notes\, percussion and melody so seamlessly that one could believe there are more instrumentalists on stage. \n

SUMMARY:Cat Canteri
DESCRIPTION:Cat Canteri is a true musician in the sense that she lives for the music\, primarily as a solo artist but also with a rich history of collaboration with other bands and songwriters. Raised in the inner north of Melbourne\, Cat released three albums with The Stallions\, before releasing her debut album\, when We Were Young\,  in 2014\, \nNow\, in 2016\, Cat has released her brand new EP Late At Night which captures both the vitality and intimacy of her live shows across six new songs. Her folk meets country meets indie-rock style still shines through as she ventures into new territory with the electric slide guitar and a bold and unselfconscious vocal delivery. You can hear traces of The Pretenders\, Bonnie Raitt\, Eleanor Friedberger and Ryan Adams filtered through the organic rock ’n’ roll of The Faces as she captures both the dash and brio of the live atmosphere and the melancholy of the late-night comedown. \nHer songs document real life situations and experiences. You get the sense that Cat is revelling in being able to bring her songs and stories to life\, giving them a heartbeat and conveying a range of intimate and emotional states; from fragile to life-affirming. \n  \n“Whilst she has the vocal ability to take you to some really dark places\, she also has the freedom of expression to bring you back. Similarly\, whilst some of the songs have a vulnerability to them\, you never lose sight of the strength that’s needed to come back” ~ Fatea Magazine UK \n

SUMMARY:Louie and the Pride
DESCRIPTION:Louise MacGregor\, folky singer/songwriter\, had a successful solo career before teaming up with her great friend Ben O’Connell\, known broadly as The Fuzz. Ben’s flare for the dark blues added unmistakable flavour\, giving an edge and substance to Louie’s lighter pop/folk style. \nMeanwhile Louise’s sister in-law and Nova Marsh Rob Grosden\, both playing inAmberdance\, had been soothing souls with their unmistakable harmonies when the two pairs started jamming in 2010. The four very well blended voices brought the songs to life and the weekly jam sessions became weekend-long “band camps” on Louise’s Healesville veranda\, \nThe songs were immediately loaded to Triple J Unearthed\, where they sat high in the pop chart for weeks\, “Wake Me Up” reaching number two! 2015 the trend continues upward with the much awaited release of the crowd funded album “Wake Me Up” and the start of the “Louie and the Pride by Lamplight tour” \n

Widely respected as an amazing singer and grooving upright bass player; Kim has been a member of acoustic bands Little Rabbit\, Uncle Bill\, Appalachian Heaven as well as supporting the internationally renowned Dan Hicks as one of the Innocent Bystanders. \nHer award winning original songs are lyrical and quirky. In 2015 Kimberley was awarded the Tilley’s Choice Award for ‘Watching Over Joan’.  Her songs cover life commentary and social issues\, pure fun and some politics. In all of her music the melodies are compelling.  Her voice is in the alto range\, rich and mellow\, and is often compared to dark chocolate with its rich texture. \nJohn Gray joins Kimberley as the other half of the duo. He played on the SA bluegrass and folk scene when he was in his 20’s and 30’s but then stopped playing music for some time before coming out of early retirement to join Uncle Bill in recent years. He played in a band called Mississippi that was the precursor to the Little River Band and has recently played on the ‘Red Dog’ movie soundtrack. \n  \n \n  \nIntroducing the support act… \n  \nCathy Dobson\n \n  \nCathy is a multi-award winning singer/song writer performing mainly in Melbourne.

SUMMARY:David Hosking
DESCRIPTION:David Hosking is a rare jewel in the crown of songwriting. With a voice that is endearing\, honest\, tender but full of life. His stage performance is warm\, open\, raw\, gritty with an abundance of soul. The story telling speaks in a language that grabs a part of the human heart of which you can do nothing but cherish for life. David’s voice is reminiscent of Nick Cave meeting Nick Drake being smashed in the middle by early Tom Waits. \nDavid from Melbourne\, Australia has been writing\, recording and touring for over 20 years with multiple successful tours opening for Eddie Reader\, Foy Vance\, The Waifs\, Ron Sexsmith\, Boo Hewerdine\, Chris Wilson\, Shane O’Mara\, Rebecca Barnard\, Shelly Scown\, comedian Glynn Nicholas & Crowded House engineer Paul Kosky throughout Australia\, UK and Europe. \nTo date David has released seven albums\, and built a large and loyal following in Australia\, Europe and Ireland. Through the passing of each season Davids touring\, writing and recordings have moved in fresh new directions. His last two albums “All That Beauty” & forth coming album “Butterfly Net” due for release March 2017 have been recorded & produced by Paul “Hammy” Hamilton from Bangor County Down in Ireland – “Mostly known for his playing and producing and MD for singer song writer Foy Vance”. \n  \n“Hosking digs so deep for his truth that his voice trembles with it: hushed but always in command of a rich and skilled band of session players who are sometimes better known than he is.” ~ Michael Dwyer\,  The Age \n  \n“Troubadour David Hosking…he does things his way. No lofty ambition\, just honest toil for his craft …has a nose for witty poetry that he beautifully transforms into song… Hosking’s warm vocal doesn’t want for perfection\, yet thrives and shakes with passion in each song’s journey as if it’s an old friend”. ~ Scott Pedmore\, Sunday Herald Sun \n  \n \n  \nIntroducing the support act this month… \nJason & Simone\nJason and Simone are a local emerging acoustic duo creating a delicate blend of harmonic vocal and acoustic guitar in a sweet fusion of alternate country/folk songs\, telling tales of life and love lost ‘n’ found in their ever growing collection of original songs. They gather inspiration from life’s pivotal moments along with many artists such as Simon and Garfunkel\, Richard Thompson\, Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings to name a few! In 2015 they recorded their first 5 track E.P\, only available at gigs. \n
