Perth Folk and Roots Club is back at the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club on Sunday 2nd May 2021 with the support of the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club and City of Stirling. The performances are from 5 pm to 8 pm at the Inglewood Bowling and Sports Club, 1 Stancliffe Street, Mount Lawley. For this event, the Perth Folk and Roots Club has Clandestine and Nick Northcott.
"Perth Folk and Roots Club welcomes Clandestine from Perths hills and guitar virtuoso Nick Northcott to perform at Perth Folk and Roots Club", said Keith Anthonisz, President of the Perth Folk and Roots Club.
Clandestine are a hills-based group led by someone familiar to Perth Folk and Roots Club, Sian Johanna. Sian was previously with Booby Trap and Danse Macabre that have made several performances at the Club and she writes folk songs that encompass a mixture of grit and heart. Possessing a songwriting style that owes as much to Iron and Wine as it does to John Prine and Gillian Welch, Clandestine tip their hats and take their cues from genres such as Alt-Country, Americana and Bluegrass, taking pride in the delivery of soaring vocal harmonies. Clandestine has been performing locally at the Parkerville Tavern, Leederville Songwriter's Club, Jarrahfall Folk Festival and the Araluen Summer Sundowner amongst a host of others, ably supporting The Hunting Birds, Dan Howls, Justin Walshe Folk Machine and The Holy Smoke. Shaun Coffey plays rock-solid bass lines and vocal harmonies. Eclectic lead guitar is played by the legendary Jon Elbery, a talented multi-instrumentalist hailing from the UK. Last but not least, the percussive actions of Ruth Goncalves on the cajon, along with a mixture of various percussive tools, bring it all together and help Clandestine build their musical stories.
Nick Northcott is an acoustic fingerstyle guitarist who grew up on Kangaroo Island in South Australia and developed a love for music from an early age thanks to the encouragement of his father, school teachers and the prevalence of folk festivals on the island. Nick discovered acoustic fingerstyle after hearing Leo Kottke. After seeing Tommy Emmanuel live in concert, Nick became both inspired, and challenged at the same time. Nick then decided on his musical direction on interpreting popular songs with acoustic fingerstyle guitar in live performances. For example Nick has a wonderful instrumental version of Under the Milky Way by the Church. Nick has played at a number of venues around Perth over the years, including the Fly By Night Club, Kidogo Arthouse and charity gigs. Nick is currently being mentored by world-renowned fingerstyle guitarist Adam Rafferty and promotes a YouTube channel.
"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.
