Hussy Hicks and Minnie Marks bring you a night of high energy guitar and vocals based indi blues roots. Julz Parker and Minnie Marks are 2 of the best female guitar players in the country Leesa Gentz's soaring vocals will send tingles running up and down your spine.

A band of accomplished and powerful women, Hussy Hicks have made a name for themselves locally and on the international stage the old fashioned way—by playing their music and connecting with audiences one passionate performance at a time. Julz Parker is widely recognised amongst her peers as one of Australia's finest guitar players, with a tone and approach that sits stylistically between Jimmy Page, Peter Green, Django Reinhardt and Tom Morello. Leesa Gentz's powerhouse stage presence, soaring vocals and massive smile will steal your heart, have you hanging on every note and leave a tingle dancing down your spine.

It is now 10 years since they released their debut album, Life Plays Out, and Hussy Hicks are currently on the road introducing fans old and new to their fifth full length offering, 'On the Boundaries'. This album experiments with their sound and production to create something familiar yet fresh and the results are nothing short of stunning. They run the gamut of musical genres incorporating blues, folk and riffy rock with gypsy, surf, alt country and soul, all cheekily woven together with beautiful vocal harmonies.

"Hussy Hicks rock!" - Michael Franti

"A not to be missed act that are ready for the world." - Peter Noble, Bluesfest Director

Minnie Marks is not just some blazingly electrified acoustic guitar playing freak of nature, but also a rare and triple threat: Singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Be warned, her music will take you on a dizzying, riff rock rollercoaster ride.

"Minnie Marks, she plays guitar like nothing I've ever seen before and she's going to blow the world apart." - Kim Churchill

"Damn, I don't think I've ever seen a female shred harder than you in the flesh." - Dallas Frasca
