Evergreen Barry Charles is sharing his love of music at a special Sunday afternoon concert called Numerous Notes at the beautiful Majestic Theatre in Pomona on Sunday 2 June.
Barry has loved playing at the Majestic over many years and on this occasion he will be sharing the stage not only with his own Charles Camilleri Connection, but with and impressive line-up of old and new musical friends. On the card:
FUNKLAVA
This dynamic four piece integrates exotic Greek and Balkan melodies with modern funk grooves to create a sound that is unique and highly danceable. With drums, bass, sax, flute, and electric resonator bouzouki, this ensemble brings together the best of both worlds and musicians with several decades of national and international performing experience.
MARTY FREE
“Inside that skinny white dude is a big black bluesman shouting to get out…..”
Given half a chance, Marty Free spins a good yarn. The guitar playing, New Zealand born singer-songwriter has been around and has the songs to prove it. And as a young man, Marty was actually mentored by Barry here on the Sunshine Coast when he played with him in The Last Resort.
