Lang lights up Bega Valley
Candelo, Saturday, July 27
Australian guitarist and songwriter Jeff Lang has built a reputation for making startling music that is accomplished, intricate, gutsy, melodic and loaded with soul. Often taking unexpected turns, he has consistently inspired his audiences by creating a stylistically diverse catalog of more than 25 albums. Alone In Bad Company is Lang's latest album and each time he steps up to take a solo his hard-won style is unmistakable - fluid but with an edge-of-the-seat recklessness. Lang will perform at the Candelo Town Hall. Food will be available and the bar will open from 7pm, while the show starts at 8pm. Tickets $20/$25.
