| Time: 5:30pm. Admission: $40. Age restrictions: All Ages/Licensed. Address: 253 Crawford Street. A diverse range of concerts across Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 April in Queanbeyan This Easter, Queanbeyan will come alive with a vibrant program of indoor concerts and outdoor entertainment as part of Good Folk – a folk experience in Queanbeyan. A two-day concert series Good Folk is a two-day concert series and will also provide a two day sessions venue, bringing together the folk community in Queanbeyan and beyond, to experience exceptional performances, celebrate folk culture while supporting musicians and local businesses. FourPlay String Quartet defy convention and stereotyping. As much a band as a string quartet, they blur the boundaries between styles and genres while maintaining their own original and true sound. They joined forces with author/graphic novelist Neil Gaiman (The Sandman, Coraline) and comics artist/cartoonist Eddie Campbell (Bacchus, From Hell) on a whirlwind international tour at some of the world’s greatest venues, including Carnegie Hall, The Barbican Centre in London, The Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, and Usher Hall in Edinburgh. They performed an opening set and also their collaborative work The Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains, which first premiered at the Graphic Festival at the Sydney Opera House. The book was released worldwide and hit the New York Times best sellers list. FourPlay write their own songs inspired by rock, pop, post-rock, jazz, klezmer, swing, folk-tronica, hip hop and more.

| 06/04/19 | Canberra, ACT | The Street Theatre | Australia |
| Time: 8:00pm. Admission: $25. Age restrictions: All Ages/Licensed. Box office: 02 6247 1223. Address: 15 Childers St. Music and politics go together like coffee and chocolate, beer and chips, or coal and climate change. Six weeks out from the federal election, the Greens candidate for the brand new winnable seat of Canberra, Tim Hollo, will take the stage with his band, FourPlay String Quartet, special guests An Inconvenient Groove, and MC (former senator) Scott Ludlam, for a fantastic night of notes and votes. Australia’s favourite eclectic electric string quartet, FourPlay return to The Street Theatre where they recorded their fourth album and have performed to sold out crowds. FourPlay are a global sensation, performing their unique mix of rock, classical, folk, blues and politically charged messages everywhere from the National Folk Festival to New York’s Carnegie Hall and London’s Barbican Centre. Their latest single, Wish, written by Tim Hollo, is a powerful, haunting ballad about living in a climate changed world. An Inconvenient Groove are Canberra’s best known climate change aware funk band. With grooves as deep as the Marianas Trench and energy as high as global temperatures, this is the funkiest thing to come out of Canberra since blue green algae in Lake Burley Griffin. Funds raised on the night go to the Greens election campaign. | |||
