About this act
Bluey is an outback larrikin with a guitar, a swag of Australian songs, and a talent for bulldust. The set is exclusively Australian: Slim Dusty's A Pub with No Beer, John Williamson's True Blue and Cootamundra Wattle, Redgum's I Was Only 19, Paul Kelly's To Her Door, Icehouse, the Easybeats. Then his own material, which includes Old Willy Don't Work No More and The Mataranka Crow. He works pubs, clubs, caravan parks, festivals, fundraisers, campfires and community events right across the country, and audience participation is half the point. Some shows carry language, so MA15+ is the sensible call unless you ask him to keep it clean. Setup is one power point, a small table, and a jug of water.
