An evening with irish songwriter and storyteller 'Gallie' accompanied by pianist Daniel brown. The Citadel is in the bustling hinterland town of Murwillumbah, between the world-renowned Tweed Coast and heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforests within the Tweed hinterland. Mount Warning (Wollumbin) stands prominently as nature's sculpture on the horizon. Murwillumbah is known for reviving itself after fire and flood. This 100-year-old Citadel has survived these times. After a number of years of private use TheCitadel is again welcoming an audience but revived as a building for The Visual and Performing Arts, drawing from this rich local culture of creativity, and passion for our natural environment. Murwillumbah is surrounded by small villages each with their own unique identity.

Postponed Hey guys unfortunately I've sliced the top of my index finger. I had to get five stitches. So I have to postponed the Live Stream concert. Will we reschedule for the end of April. If the new date doesn't work out for anyone I will of course refund the money. Sorry for the inconvenience guys. For the curious out there- I was trying to kill a fly and whacked my finger off the corner of the cooker!!

Celebrating its 31st year in 2020, the much loved Nannup Music Festival presents an eclectic mix of acts over the first weekend of March each year, set to the stunning bush backdrop of Australia’s South West and the small town atmosphere of Nannup; a historic timber town on the banks of the Blackwood River.

Since 1989, the festival – a community spirited event, operated by a passionate and dedicated team of Committee and Staff from the non profit Nannup Music Club Inc – has consistently proven to be one of the most welcoming and rewarding weekends of music around, and a much anticipated event in WA’s music calendar. It is an amazing and inspiring weekend for everyone and a special place to share a festival experience and authentic good times with your family and friends; a colourful celebration of original music, art, nature, community and diversity.

The festival highlights the best in new, emerging and indigenous music over free and ticketed venues, boasts an Emerging Artists Award and a Busking Competition, and offers a wide array of activities beyond that. Street performers, workshops, talks, poetry, camping, food and artisan markets, a sculpture walk and free activities for little festival-goers, all contribute in creating the “Nannup bubble”, where you’re invited to share, immerse and discover.

Nannup is part of Nyoongar Boodjar lands and is home to 14 language groups. Nannup town is situated on the lands of the Bibbulmun people and the north side of the Blackwood river (Bilyar Goorbalbilyup) becomes Wardandi country. The festival takes place during Bunuru – Second summer (season of the adolescence). We love, honour and cherish this place and we trust that it will be respected and nurtured far into the future.

See you in Nannup!

After an epic year of touring the world with shows in France, Brazil, Ireland, Australia, Spain and England, Gallie returns to Wa for a one off performance at Kidogo Arthouse Fremantle on the 10th of October Doors @ 7pm. Since the release of his debut album ‘The Occoquan River’ Gallie has been going from strength to strength, playing sold out shows in his adopted home of Australia and all across Europe. In November 2018 Gallie headlined the Folk stage at Brazil’s largest Blues and Roots festival MDBF.  He returns again this November to play with Caxias’ symphonic Orcestra as well as doing his own theatre show before returning to the MDB Festival to headline the folk stage again. He returns to Australia in December to record his eagerly awaited follow up to ‘The Occoquan River’.

If you haven't heard of Gallie until now you're in for a real musical awakening.... If you like artists like Ray Lamontagne , Tom Waits, John Martyn or Wilco, then it is time to embrace the musical talents of Gallie.

With his amazing debut album the Occoquan River, Gallie has a remarkable talent of imagery that can transport you from the bloody battlefields of the American Civil War to the soft comfort of your lovers bed within the length of one tune.

Gallie's shows are like no other, he has the capacity to reach a large audience on a one to one level and make a large room seem like a small venue, due to the warmth that he brings through his songs and story telling. The stories are sometimes comical, sometimes tragic but the delivery is always from the heart.

His songwriting speaks for itself with critics hailing his album 'The Occoquan River' in their top albums of the year. Gallie has been drawing large crowds to his gigs over the last year and has been a favourite at a number of festivals including MDBF (Caxias Brazil), Little World Festival (France), Altitude Festival (France), Queenscliff Music Festival, Portarlington Celtic Festival, Yackandandah Folk Festival, St Albans Folk Festival, Nannup Music festival, Fairbridge Music festival, Nanga Music festival and Maleny Music Festival.

Already one of my albums of 2018.” Jimmy Stafford, Highland Radio “You can hear every mile traveled by Gallie on his adventurous journey to making The Occoquan River… it is a beautiful piece of work, that takes you on Gallie's literary journey and wraps you in the emotional truth of his music.” Fiachna O'Braonain, Hothouse Flowers and RTE Radio 1’s Late Date “One of the outstanding releases this year....’The Occoquan River’ is brilliant.” Paul Gough, The Inside Sleeve, ABC Radio National.
