Australian duo playing Trailside Cafe & Inn

-

Australian duo Hat Fitz and Cara are playing the Trailside Cafe & Inn in Mount Stewart tonight Hat Fitz is a “veteran” wild man of the blues scene in Australia.

He has a record 18 straight appearance­s at Byron’s East Coast Blues and Roots Festival, a record that is not likely to ever be broken, and one which bears testimony to his amazing live performanc­es and popularity with festival goers.

Irish-born folksinger Cara Robinson draws on her soul background - having toured Europe and the USA with singers such as Jamiroquai and the hugely popular Corinne BaileyRae - and although blessed with a sensationa­l voice she was not content to be labelled as ‘just a singer’.

She has taken to drumming duties as well as washboards, flute and tin whistle, sometimes all at once.

“We’re really excited for this show,” says owner Pat Deighan.

“Everyone who saw them at East Coast Music Week in Newfoundla­nd couldn’t stop raving about there live show.”

Tickets available at www.trailside.ca, Back Alley Music or call 902-676-3130.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. with music at 8 p.m.
