BLUE MOUNTAINS LIVE, JAN 05, 2023.

Happy New Year everyone and get ready for 2023 because it's going to be a busy year!

We have hit the ground running with 3 great gigs as our recommended gigs for the weekend and each one has slotted in nicely to give the weekend a bit of a theme. First we have local outfit Orchard Boat with all members present playing at Two Doctors Whiskey Tavern, Leura and we chat with Head Honcho Rob Weule about how he, BJ and Taylor are going to 'rip up the joint' on Friday. Then we hear from Nathan Power of Gusto Gusto as they make there way down the North Coast to play for us at The Station Bar on Saturday, and finally we chat with touring artist Grace Petrie about her performance at The Baroque Room on Sunday! Phew!

A packed show and a packed weekend. We are recommending you go see all shows because the acts all fit together so well its like attending a mini festival.

Remember dancing on Saturday night is mandatory!

BLUE MOUNTAINS LIVE - PODCAST

As Winter Magic shrinks away in the rearview mirror I felt there was an opportunity to do a review with one of the performers that had seen during the festival. Lucky for me one of the many I really enjoyed, reached out and it gave me the chance to ask Jimmi Carr onto the show.

After talking about Wi8nter Magic, Art and Zappa we talked about the release of the next single from the album Flight Cycle'. 'Post Mameory' Blues which had just been released.

After talking to Jimmi I also talked to Charity from Fusion Boutique about upcoming shows.

On Thursday 23rd of June, the Professor chatted with Katrina Noorbergen (BMCC) and Louise Hales (BMT&CH) about the new Propel Projects, an initiative of the Blue Mountains City Council's Cultural Development department. He also played some great tunes from the bands performing that weekend.

Blue Mountains City of the Arts presents a new project aimed at helping emerging performance artists in the Blue Mountains!

A new arts residency PROPEL PROJECTS has been launched for emerging performing artists residing and developing their practice in the Blue Mountains! With four placements available, each Resident will be offered access to professional space to create, rehearse and perform as well as connect with a team of mentors and additional support to help them hone their craft and propel their art practice to the next level.

Coordinated by the Blue Mountains City Council’s Cultural Development department in partnership with the Blue Mountains Theatre and Community Hub, and with generous support from the City of the Arts Trust and MTNS MADE, Propel Projects Emerging Performers Residency (PROPEL) is an initiative created to help support and restimulate performing arts in the region.
