“The Hideaway Sessions” performance at the Foundry Arts Space is an opportunity for live music lovers to enjoy a couple of hours of original songs by three local artists, outside of the regular pub crowd gigs.
“We’re individually performing, and then we’ll collaborate and jam together, which will be so good,” Kneebone said.
The three artists are all familiar faces in the region’s live music scene, regularly performing at local venues and festivals, but this is the first time the trio will be performing together.
“Our musical writing styles are going to blend quite nicely together, even though we have quite different styles they will all move together quite well,” Kneebone said.
“It’s not like one of us is really poppy and really folky, we’re all sitting around that folk-country genre.”
Marks recently played the Tin Shed Shows, Kneebone has been collaborating with a producer in Nashville, and Walker opened for Christine Anu at the Shepparton Festival.
“When we’re usually doing gigs, we’re covering other people’s songs, but these will all be original songs, and unreleased songs as well,” Kneebone said.
“We’ll tell some stories behind the songs, and no doubt there will be a few laughs.”
Kneebone said the show would be an honest showing of who the artists really were, with storytelling about their songs being one of the benefits for the smaller, intimate shows.
“We’ve gained groups of followers from gigs, but this is us being honest with ourselves: this is us, we’re not showcasing someone else’s work, we’re showing who we are as musicians and our talents,” she said.
The Hideaway Sessions will take place on June 3 at The Foundry Arts Space in Echuca between 7pm and 9pm. Tickets are available from www.trybooking.com/BYIVB
