Party: Another thursday sesh in the bar w/ Mark Hilton

Tall stories – truth, lies and everything in between. A prolific songwriter and seasoned storyteller, choosing acoustic guitar & vocals as the main weapons, with occasional asthmatic harmonica. Expect to laugh and cry.

This is folk and country blues, with urban smarts. You’ll hear upbeat foot-tapping hoe-downs, slinky sultry mood pieces and beautiful aching ballads. Follow the bittersweet storylines, get caught in unpredictable landslides - songs that never forget you.

With his acoustic trio, Mark brings together many years of touring experience covering the Byron Bay Blues & Roots Festival, St. Kilda Festival, Brunswick Music Festival, the Adelaide Fringe, the Darwin Festival, the Seabreeze Festival, the Woodford Dreaming Festival, countless pubs & clubs along Australia’s east coast and overseas tours to Bali and Vietnam.
