Sun 8 Jan | 1:00pm - 3:00pm The Fancy Brothers
This multiple WAMi nominated band serves up dubious bluegrass with a side dish of badly mashed country and undercooked banter. Fronted by two of Fremantle's fanciest songwriters,
The Fancy Brothers are Jeff Strong (banjo) and Justin Walshe (mandolin) - and bound and gagged by a crackpot family string band starring Phoebe Corke on fiddle,Justin Castley on double bass and Merle Fyshwick on guitar - The Fancy Brothers make you dance like a hillbilly and cry like a mule!
Sun 19 Feb | 1:00pm - 3:00pm Leon Ewing - 1:00-1:45pm
Darkly humorous, satirical and theatrical beyond theatricality,
Leon Ewing avoids commercialisation, eschewing specialisation, and with it the fame and fortune in exchange for the sheer joy of following his darling heart and mind to some of the less interesting and exotic places they take him. Find out what this all means at the next WAM Sunday Bands show!
The Stanleys - 2:00-3:00pm
Meeting and forming the band online - Mark Di Renzo, Paul Di Renzo and Jamie Horsburgh (Gigantic, The Chevelles) collaborated via correspondence with Norway’s Tomas Dahl (Turbonegro), eventually hitting studios in Oslo, Paris, Perth and Sydney to track their first generation of songs for the Always EP.
The Stanleys then embarked on a World Tour in 2011, which took them across Europe, the USA, Asia and Australia with an itinerary of festivals, supports and headline shows. The boys play their first shows in China for The Ming Dynasty Tour in May.
