Japanese-born Montz Matsumoto‘s banjo and voice have entertained Australian audiences in festivals, venues, local markets and streets for almost 20 years. Montz and his band Voicestrings will showcase his new album Missing Home. The audience will experience many mesmerizing moments of tranquillity, excitement, affinity, and innovation.

This is the concert to showcase the music from Montz’s 3rd Album Missing Home. The album is a collection of Bluegrass, Celtic and Montz’s original Japanese songs and instrumentals which takes you through many mesmerizing moments of foot-tapping rhythm and virtuosic improvisations and tranquillizing melodies. All the musicians in this project have a wide range of musical backgrounds and experiences.

North Carolinian bass player Ross Sermons toured all over the US and has experienced almost all kinds of American music. Huon-based flautist Elisse Kleiner has been experimenting with a wide music horizon like folk, Brazilian, and contemporary music after she studied classical music and performed with the Melbourne Symphony. Paddy Montgomery on guitar and bouzouki is one of the most demanded instrumentalists in the Australian acoustic music scene who is very fluent in Celtic, Bluegrass, Greek and Middle Eastern traditional music. Cloudy Davey has been singing all around the Barossa Valley, SA.

More jokes than the YouTube videos, and some might make you blush, but you’ll leave having laughed and learned about Scotland’s role in the world.

Bruce Fummey, the comedian behind the 230k subscriber YouTube channel Scotland History Tours, returns to Tasmania with a new show. Laughs galore and quirky observations as Bruce explains how Scotland Made the World.

Every Saturday morning, UK time, Bruce tells a story from Scotland’s history. This show will deliver more jokes than you’d get from the YouTube videos, and some might even make you blush. However you’ll still laugh as you learn about Scotland’s role in the world, and what created that kilted diaspora.

Nominated for comedy awards at Fringeworld, WA and at home in Scotland for Scottish Comedy Awards and even named Scottish Comedian of the Year, Bruce has appeared on ABC series Stuff the British Stole and numerous UK TV and Radio shows and brought acting skills to bear in the Steve Coogan film The Lost King.

Usually the lighthouse is manned by one keeper at a time. This year however, the changeover hasn’t gone to plan. And two lighthouse keepers are stuck with each other for the season.

Join prize winning improvisers Harris and Tweed (Rowan Harris and Matt Wilson) for a tale of two men who can’t escape.
