Rich Webb’s ‘RIGHT!’ was one of the albums of 2022, scoring rave reviews and bags of radio. He’s back with an incredible band to launch brand new single ‘Brunswick St’ south of the river at George Lane as part of this amazing double bill. Americana-UK described RIGHT! as “A cohesive collection of songs that show a true understanding of what makes Americana great, with the breezy cool of Tom Petty running through them.” Rolling Stone touches of Dylan and Springsteen.
Rich Webb’s new single ‘Brunswick St’ threatens to take the band to another level again. Rich will be joined by Matt Dixon on lead guitar/pedal steel, Alics Gate-Eastley on bass/vocals and Jim Carden on drums/vocals. Come and check out this award-winning Alt-Country / Americana show on our magnificent stage for what will be a cracking Friday evening line up.

Madeleine Clare is a Melbourne-born singer songwriter with a point to prove: that she can still make great music and love performing even after quitting the muso life more than a decade ago. And prove it she did, with her debut solo album The Eleventh Hour out 5 May on all platforms and launching officially at the Ballroom. Madeleine co-produced the album with Australian Music Prize nominee and multi-instrumentalist Jethro Pickett, a labour love distracting her during lockdowns.
The voice of an angel but with plenty of the devil in her, The Eleventh Hour is made for late night introspection, drawing from a wide range of influences including alt country, folk, indie noir, psychedelia, and cabaret to create rich, evocative and intimate music. Madeleine will be joined by a killer band including Ben Wiesner (drums) Rick Plant (bass) Matt Dixon (guitar) and special guest Dan Brodie (keys/guitar). Already gearing up for album number 2, the joy and passion Madeleine brings to her performances is one emanating from a woman finally ready to share her voice with the world.
