The Fairbridge Festival

FAIRBRIDGE FESTIVAL 2021 CELEBRATES THE BEST IN CONTEMPORARY, FOLK, ROOTS AND WORLD MUSIC – WITH THIS YEAR’S EVENT DELIVERING THE BIGGEST SHOWCASE OF LOCAL MUSICAL TALENT THE FESTIVAL HAS EVER SEEN AT THE FAIRBRIDGE VILLAGE, PINJARRA FROM APRIL 9 – 11.

From Indigenous artists to emerging folk musicians and dance bands, this year’s Festival line-up also includes jazz, pop and even some classical music alongside an inspiring range of children’s activities and family workshops, theatre, comedy, dance, crafts and more. As we’ve come to expect from one of Australia’s most loved, family-friendly music and camping festivals, there’ll also be a series of spine-tingling exclusive performances including Gina Williams and Guy Ghouse with brilliant jazz pianist Russell Holmes and the Dolce Quartet, whereby ancient language and heartfelt stories entwine with strings and ethereal piano. Richard Walley’s Six Seasons with Junkadelic Brass Band featuring Noongar singers celebrates tens of thousands of years of cultural knowledge through song and story; and Bustadelic Junkamento will see Melbourne’s irrepressible Bustamento ska band fuse with Junkadelic brass to create a musical energy of cosmic proportion. The Peacock Sessions in our newest venue will explode with Celtic, old time and bluegrass sessions featuring the state’s hottest players, and the World Music Café is a social enterprise concept whereby audiences can meet a migrant and refugee team for a fusion of stories, food and music. Fairbridge Festival 2021 also features some interstate acts including Blackeyed Susans vocalist and one-time guest singer in The Triffids, Rob Snarski who’ll bring his velvet-voiced performance with superb guitarist and producer Shane O’Mara, and Taasha Coates from The Audreys will perform in duet mode with a new album in tow. There’s even some surprise international guests with Germany's The Beez returning to the Festival after warming the hearts of audiences with their oompah take on classic pop tunes with a show titled “Look What We’ve Done to Your Song”.
