The Rhythm Hut will use its May Five Lands Experience as a fundraiser for Nepal with special guest The Wondermen on Sunday, May 31, 2015.
“I personally have quite strong ties to Nepal, having travelled to and from, raised funds for, and worked with children with physical disabilities in Nepal over the past four years,” Rhythm Hut general manager, Lou Sawilejskij said. “Obviously the recent earthquake that hit the country has been devastating, and bringing our local community together to help the people of Nepal recover from this disaster has particular importance to me,” she said. The monthly Five Lands Experience is both family and dog friendly and admission is free.
It kicks off at 5pm with a free drum circle and, at 6:30pm, the Five Lands Band will start off the night. Special guest artist for May is The Wondermen, a new ‘soul, blues, alternative rock project by Duane Marnell. “It’s the back section from Rocwater with new lead player, Paul Eagle, on harmonies,” she said. “We will have a huge raffle with amazing prizes drawn on the night, as well as donation buckets going around.” All funds raised will go directly to Oxfam Australia’s Nepal Earthquake appeal.
