The finishing touches have now been added to the incredible weekend that is the 10th anniversary West Coast Blues ‘n’ Roots 2013 special weekend edition.
The West Coast Blues ‘n’ Roots 10th anniversary special weekend edition line up was revealed with the likes of Robert Plant, Paul Simon, Wilco, Counting Crows and countless other iconic acts being announced and it was received with open arms and mouths.
The overwhelming response was amazement and disbelief that such an incredible list of artists would be heading to Fremantle Park for one huge celebratory weekend.
Joining the amazing array of talent already heading to Fremantle Park this March are The Music Maker Blues Revue, Russell Morris, Brothers Grim and Sticky Fingers.
There’ll be just one final spot for an up and coming unsigned local act, via our beloved Breakthrough to Blues ‘n’ Roots Competition. Details on the competition will be revealed very soon.
One of Australia’s most unique and enduring success stories, Russell Morris has transformed himself from a sixties psychedelic king to a seasoned performer over several decades on the stage. Don’t miss this Australian treasure at West Coast Blues n’ Roots this year, showcasing his brilliant new album, Sharkmouth.
Comprised of brothers James and Matt Grim, with drummer Stephen Devlin and Dominic Lindus on double bass, Brothers Grim specialise in a blend of rockabilly and blues with elements of rock, metal and punk thrown in for good measure. With their electrifying, lustful and often humorous live performances, Brothers Grim have fashioned themselves into a well-loved fixture of the Australian music scene that never disappoint or fail to get their audience up and dancing.
One of the country’s fastest rising new bands, Sydneysiders Sticky Fingers are making their debut appearance at West Coast Blues n’ Roots in 2013. Their latest track “Clouds And Cream” is another slice of infectious, hookier than hell songsmithery which is helping them sell out venues all over the country and score slots on some killer festivals.
