One of Australia’s most exciting, accomplished and original acoustic acts, the Mimosa Duo will make a very welcome and much anticipated return to Troubadour Folk on October 26.
Phoebe O’Shea on violin and vocals, and Morgan Haselden on guitar, are each brilliant internationally accomplished musicians in their own right.
While they live on the Central Coast, their music is international – an individual and colourful collage of gypsy jazz with classy servings of French parlour, Argentinian tango, Celtic rhythms, son cubano and classical music – all served with truly creative originality and a healthy dose of humour.
Since they first teamed up while training at the Sydney Conservatorium in classical music they have lived and performed in France, where they were embraced into the heart of Gypsy Jazz, and toured Australia, New Zealand and internationally.
They have entertained on luxury cruise liners, at the Sydney Opera House, numerous festivals and at literally hundreds of events honing their craft.
O’Shea and Haselden are a couple in life as well as on stage, and they are now parents.
They have performed with other top musicians over the past couple of years, including as part of the amazing Bathtub Gin Orchestra at the Troubadour.
This is their first show together as a duet at the club since 2019 and promise to bring their warm and rich program of song, gypsy jazz and Latin-inspired guitar and fiddle.
It’s uplifting and virtuosic music that leaves audiences calling out for more.
The Troubadour at the Everglades Club, Woy Woy, is a great folk music venue known for its warm and appreciative audience.
The show starts at 7pm. Inquiries: 4342 6716.
