Jazz in the Vines isn’t the only hot music festival hitting the Hunter this year. If you prefer your sounds a little bluesier, I suggest checking out the revamped Bimbadgen Blues show on September 12.
To celebrate the event’s 10th anniversary it’s back with a brand new attitude. Now known as Bimbadgen Blues Roots Funk n Grooves the festival toasts some of the country’s best talent. To coincide with the fresh new image comes a fantastic line-up, featuring The Panics, Blue King Brown, Kram, Ash Grunwald, Bluejuice, Philadelphia Grand Jury, Dialectrix, and Here Come the Birds.
“I felt it was time to reinvigorate the festival and the 10th anniversary seems like the right time to do it” said event producer Grant Smith. “We are trying to create something memorable and a little bit different to the other concerts and festivals in the Hunter Valley – there are going to be a few surprises on the day and we have a lot of ideas to implement as the event grows.”
What was once a day-time show will now kick on after the sun goes down, with some of the best music, food, and wine around. What could be better than that?
Tickets cost $65 and are available from all the regular outlets from May 11.
