A Little Lunch Music: The Morrisons
Co-Artistic Directors Kathryn Selby AM and City Recital Hall
- Contemporary Music
- Daytime
Drop in for City Recital Hall’s long running series of lunchtime concerts, A Little Lunch Music and spend your lunch hour listening to some of Australia’s finest musicians across musical genres.
The Morrisons have cemented their place as the darlings of the Sydney bluegrass and folk scene, blending Australian stories with sounds of traditional American bluegrass, folk, and old timey music. They have warmed stages for Justin Townes Earle, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Nightsweats, Marlon Williams, and All Our Exes Live in Texas; have appeared at Woodford, Port Fairy, and Secret Garden Festivals; have been nominated for a Golden Guitar, and won an Australian Songwriting Award.
After a sold out performance at City Recital Hall in 2019 with their show Man of Constant Sorrow: A Tribute to the Music of ‘O Brother, Where Art Thou?’, The Morrisons are returning to pay homage to the songs that have inspired them, and to share some of their own original works.
Exquisite harmonies, solos that sparked with virtuosity and songs that embraced traditional subject matter and their contemporary surrounds…They really are the jewel in the local folk/bluegrass/country scene.
