Ramshackle began in November 2022 after Tony and Johns jam sessions produced a pretty good sound with their melodic and complementary guitar styles with an emphasis on good blues grooves, infectious dance rhythms and interesting arrangements. They play versions of well known songs that don’t have “set in stone” guitar solos and add their own mostly improvised solos as and when required in a “shared” format... both play lead and rhythm with Tony taking most of the vocals. Regular gigs (as a duo) at the Chidlow Tavern, Lyrics Underground and a monthly residency at the Pirate Bar have been well supported and plenty of gigs are booked for the rest of 2025.
Ramshackle are John Howard and Tony Shergold. For this performance they will be joined by Hank Deberitz & Yugon Chobanov.
They have a FaceBook page called Ram Shackle Blues and Beyond with plenty of photos and videos available.

Lovebites | 9.00pm

Yes folks – the planets have aligned, the dice have rolled, all 6 Lotto numbers (and 2 supps) have been circled. Magic is happening and seismic events will occur on Charles Street. Okay, so Phil Bennett turns 67. Any excuse for a party. And it’ll all be happening at Perth’s favourite place on a Tuesday night with the fabulous Love bites!! Where else would you wanna be? Stones flavoured R&B with a twist of rock’n’roll, a dash of blues and a splash of whatever that other ingredient is
With Phil Bennett honky tonking on the 88s and hollering out them words, Sam Musca squeezing out those six strings, April Ashton honking that horn, bass boss John Talati rambling and rumbling underneath, and rhythm king, Richie Pavledis, kicking out the groove with his sticks, there’s voodoo magic in the air when these guys hit the stage.
And to help celebrate this auspicious occasion, they’ll be joined by a galaxy of guest stars, including Wayne Green, Adele De Marchi, Myk Deville and Fiona Heath. You’ll be slippin’ and slidin’ on that dance floor all night long. Shake that thang!
