New
album in the pipeline for Greg Bain....
G’Day
Everyone,
The
Tamworth festival seems like it was
a long time ago and I have traveled
a lot of miles since then. But I have
to say that I’m still having
fun and enjoying the music and the
ever-growing list of friends.
In
February I traveled to Gunnedah to
perform at the Ann Kidd memorial concert.
I have performed at this concert every
year since winning the Star Quest,
This year my eldest daughter Jayde
also performed. The concert this year
had one of largest audiences to date
and a lot of money was raised for
this great cause. Congratulation to
Col Rollings and all of the volunteers
for great show.
In
march I performed at a couple of local
shows and also at the Central Coast
Country Music Festival in the LBS
Showcase with Lindsay Butler, Shaza
Leigh, Greg Williams, Rodney Walker,
Peggy Gilchrist, Lynnette Guest, and
Tom Maxwell, We performed at the Entrance
Surf Club on Saturday and Sunday with
a full house on both days.
In
April I performed at Poley’s
Place (Barrington) and Boondooma Homestead,
first was Poley’s Easter Hoedown,
and as usual it was a great weekend
appearing on the show was Ken (Chainsaw)
Lindsay (Compare), The Sidey’
(organizers), Melissa Bajric, Tracey
Coster, Clyde Cameron, The Gibsons
and Ash Mountain. A big thank you
to Roes and Ann-Marree I had a great
time and looking forward to October.
Second was Boondooma, what a great
place. I was there from Wednesday
through to Sunday afternoon. Its just
non-stop Bush Poetry and Bush Ballads,
great camping, great people, great
food, what more could you ask for.
I have to say that the ANZAC service
was very touching; I am often away
on ANZAC Day so it was nice to be
able to attend such a nice service.
A big thankyou to Buddy and Lynne
I had a great time and hope to be
able to perform at Boondooma again.
In
May I traveled to Wagga Wagga to perform
at the County Music Clubs annual Country
Music Weekend. I performed as part
of the LBS Showcase along with Lindsay
Butler, Shaza Leigh, Trevor Letton,
Ashley Cook, Lindsay Woddington Lynnette
Guest, and Tom Maxwell.
Also appearing on the weekend was
Anita Ree, Dan Manning, Matt Manning,
Peter Pratt, Nathan Charlton, and
the Craig Giles Show.
Thanks to the Wagga Wagga CM Club
I had a fantastic time.
Hopefully
I will be starting on a new album
in the next month or two, this Album
will once again be recorded at LBS
studios in Tamworth. This is only
possible because of the overwhelming
response to my Debut Album, I wish
to thank all of the people that have
supported me and continue to support
me.
Till next time, Take care
Greg Bain
