What a great turnout for Blues Central on Sunday. Just a week away is our big Easter Sunday Jam and this is a chance for club members and visitors alike to come and make music for four hours. There are bound to be a few out-of-towners boosting the numbers, so come down and strut your stuff, or if you are a little timid, then just listen. Western Australia’s biggest jam session at Froth Craft Bunbrewery – Bunbury in Bunbury, from 1pm through until 5pm, Sunday April 20.
This month’s Blues Central will be a battle of the bands. Perth Folk and Roots Club Band, Company of Wolves kick off the afternoon to be followed by South West Blues Club Band Hooch. It will be a first time outing to Froth for the Wolves and we can’t wait to host them. Hard on their heals will be Hooch, first time back on stage for this band, two fabulous blues bands and an afternoon of nothing but blues. See you Sunday 13 April, 1pm at Froth Craft Bunbrewery – Bunbury
We are privileged to host from Perth a Perth Folk and Roots Club band Company of Wolves at Blues Central this month. These boys followed hard on our heals at the Blues at Bridgetown Street Stage last November and we were impressed. The band is led by Michael Westphal – Lead Vocals – song writer, with Gerald Ball – Guitar, back up vocals, Stig Lamberth – Bass, back up vocals and Trevor Gaynor on the pots and pans.
The ‘Company’ have been in the game for many years and the lads freelance with several other bands as well.
The Wolves have played at Darlington arts fest, Glen Fest, Blues at Bridgetown, Honkey Tonk bar, Perth Folk n Roots Club to name a few. They will be performing a couple of new songs they have recently penned, for the first time live at Froth Brewery on the 13th. Come and give them a hearty Southern welcome.

We are excited to have Kerry B Ryan back on stage at Blues Central March 9. He has bass legend John Wilson in tow and Jay Ram on the skins. He will have copies of his latest album Raw to the Bone with him. It shot to No5 in the first release month on Australian Blues and Roots Radio so we are sure you will be wanting a signed copy before you leave. The other half of the afternoon is Desert Road, another three piece with lead singer and bass player Donna Lou Mathews, a voice you won’t forget. She teams with Jason Forsyth on guitar and vocals and Phil Rego on drums, this is a trio guaranteed to keep you there to the very end. Bringing the very best in the West to Bunbury, please support the club and live music. See you there.
