Sutherland Acoustic (formerly Sutherland Folk Club) is delighted to present:
Michael Kennedy is a singer/songwriter from Victoria and possibly the most celebrated voice on the Australian festival circuit. The success of his first album "Digging for Soul" has catapulted him to onto stages across Australia.
His beautiful voice, exquisite songs and a guitar style thrills audiences wherever he plays.
Miguel Heatwole & Anthony Woocott are two thirds of the group Triantán. Triantán is Gaelic for "Triangle". They sing Irish and Scottish songs that will raise the hairs on the back of your neck. They have a broad range of traditional and modern material, in English as well as Gaelic, weaving harmonies in the melodic, unaccompanied style which has become their trademark.
Triantán grew out of the folk-singing sessions of Sydney and have been performing together since 1993. They sing for the pure joy of singing (although they have been known to accept the odd bit of financial incentive ) Individually and collectively, they have appeared at major folk events around Sydney as well as Jamberoo, Glenn Innes, St Albans, Blue Mountains, Majors Creek, Wollumbi and Gulgong Folk Festivals and the National Folk Festival in Canberra . Concert performances include the Irish Famine conference (Macquarie University), New Theatre, Eastside Art's Sydney Folk Gala and numerous folk clubs both in Sydney and further afield.
