Folk club to hold first live concert since restrictions

Gleny Rae Virus and the Playboys

The Troubadour Folk Club plans to hold a live music concert at the Everglades Country Club on Saturday, October 31, the first since the imposition of coronavirus restrictions.

The club has hosted online events and small gatherings during the restrictions.

Club president Mr Michael Fine said the concert would feature Gleny Rae Virus and her Playboys supported by local performers.

“Gleny Rae is an extraordinary fiddle, accordion, and guitar player, one of Australia’s most accomplished singer-songwriters and an audience favourite,” Mr Fine said.

He said she would be joined by Robbie Long on guitar and Andrew Wallace on double bass.

“Together this trio traverses a huge range of styles, from western swing to bluegrass and gypsy jazz,” he said.

Tickets can be booked online, with limited seats available.

Music starts at 7 pm with the club’s annual general meeting held beforehand at 5 pm.
