Ten Quid Poms – For fifty years John and Robin have sung many forms of traditional music. English sponsored migrants, they named their duo “The Ten Quid Poms” and debuted at the 2016 Cobargo Festival.John and Robin are not just traditional performers, they have composed many songs of their own. John has an enormous repertoire, many of his songs being also performed overseas. He wrote Yarri of Wiradjuri, a CD about the heroes of the 1852 Gundagai Floods and then collaborated with Robin in a very well reviewed CD, We Made The Steel about the NSW steelworks of Wollongong and Port Kembla.
Impressive performers. Whatever they sing about; politics, work, animals in sea shanties, traditional or original, expect lively and interactive performance, a capella or variously accompanied, and scintillating harmonies.
