Steele has had a successful music career with four solo albums and he was nominated for the Country Performer of the year! He travels regularly performing in places like Singapore and Switzerland, not to mention his homeland of New Zealand and all over Western Australia.
Steele has also played in numerous bands including
'Hot Biscuit Band'. He is an act not to be missed!
The
Justin Walshe Folk Machine performers,
Justin Walshe and
Rhyll Wilson, will be hitting the stage with their sound, mixing the best elements of folk, bluegrass, and Americana into a uniquely
Folk Machine sound , filtered through their dry arid Western Australian sense of humour. They take the sounds of the acoustic bluegrass instruments to push their storytelling and have been described as
'between a campfire yarn, a sea shanty, bush poetry and a country-rock hoedown'. Their poetic songs seek to explore the Australian essence including its history and traditions.
Justin and
Rhyll have performed extensively in Western Australian festivals including Fairbridge, the WAMis, Nannup and Bridgetown and also undertaking a national tour. They also performed at the National Folk Festival in Canberra. They have released several albums that explore the heart of Australian folklore including the
"Epic Tale of Burke & Wills" album.
