Sunday night will see the second concert of The Acoustic Playground's Winter series featuring one of Byron Bay's finest musicians, Nathan Kaye.
Nathan's performance is unique, funny and inspiring, featuring slide didge, slide guitar, stomp box, beat box and amazing vocals. He heads off this year to the Glastonbury Folk Festival in England, so catch him in Australia before he leaves.
Tully is a local performer and writer of music spanning many genres, but is never happier than with an acoustic guitar in hand. Songs of peace, love, sadness and mystery sung with no goal other than to inspire and enjoy.
He has played at various open mic events and at the Manly Boatshed, as well as for local outfit Loosely Woven. He has written short musicals, and plays a wide variety of instruments. He has recently written and performed music for the New Theatre's production of 'Medea'. Definitely a talent worth watching.
