Perth Folk and Roots Club

Perth Folk and Roots Club has planned the next folk and roots music session with the support of the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club and City of Stirling. For this event, the Perth Folk and Roots Club has Fiona Heath and Bootleg Al.

"Perth Folk and Roots Club welcomes Fiona Heath and Bootleg Al to the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club," said Keith Anthonisz, President of the Perth Folk and Roots Club.

Fiona Heath is originally from New Zealand and brings expressive performance of acoustic music, jazz and soul as well as original songs and crowd favourite interpretations of Amy Winehouse. Fiona previously played with the Perth group the Dreamers and has performed in Europe. Fiona has been performing in and around Perth including the Pickers and Slidders at the Flying Scotsman, the Perth Blues Club, the Boulevard Tavern in Joondalup, the Gas Light Club and Gypsy Tapas in Fremantle. Fiona Heath has been a crowd favourite at past Perth Folk and Roots Club shows and is not to be missed.

Bootleg Al is a trio from different musical backgrounds with a love of blues and country rock. Jack (vocalist, ukulele and guitar player) comes with a brass band, reggae and a jazz background where he played trumpet, Greg (acoustic & electric guitar) comes from a blues rock background having gigged around Perth and Freo for many years and Pas (bass & vocals) played guitar in bands ranging from cabaret to rock. Their musical influences and selection is wide and varied covering songs from early blues; Oscar ‘Buddy’ Woods, Jimmy Rogers, Tampa Red, Brownie McGee, to more recent artists such as JJ Cale, Leo Kottke, Ian Tyson, Robert Plant and Alison Kraus. Their eclectic mix of early blues and a variety of more recent material lends itself to a night of enjoyable listening and a rollicking good time.

"As always we are also looking for up and coming artists to do a few numbers for the audience," Keith added.

Please note the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club is hosting the Perth Folk and Roots Club as a free event for its members and guests with memberships offered at a very reasonable cost to Perth Folk and Roots Club supporters.
