ABOUT THE ARTISTS
KAREN LAW DUO
Equally at home on a folk club stage or singing round the kitchen table, this Sunshine Coast duo presents a multi-generational show of powerful songs full of purpose and hope. Karen Law has been writing beautifully crafted folk songs for over 30 years. She was awarded the Alistair Hulett Trophy in 2020 and won a Tamworth Songwriting award in January this year. She is joined on stage by her son Murray.
TARAF TAMBAL
Taraf Tambal plays lively dance tunes and mournful shepherd's songs from Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Macedonia. At the heart of the group is the Romanian hammer dulcimer or "Tambal" played by Will Eager. Mike Patterson on violin, Sam Vincent on double bass and Phillip Griffin on oud and guitar round out a band of masterful muses. The group's repertoire is partly original and partly drawn from traditional folk music of the Balkan countries. Collectively and individually they have performed at WOMAD, The Woodford Folk Festival, The National Folk Festival, The Big Day Out, The Stradbroke Chamber Music Festival, The Romanian Wine Festival, The Mullumbimby Multicultural Festival to name just a few venues. All four performers are highly active musicians in Brisbane, performing in diverse groups such as Gosti, Estampa, East of West, The QLD Symphony Orchestra, Camerata QLDs Chamber Orchestra and Tyrone and Lesley.
