Chris Edmondson

Specialising in what could best be described as "conversational" styled performances, the strength of this songwriter's show comes as a result of his ability to engage in banter, waffle intelligently, tell the odd story or eight, attempt to make folks laugh and cry with a self effacing wit often so dry that the tumbleweeds only blow across the stage in search of a drink, all the while exploring anything from anywhere that could be described as a story song and often beating his trusty old guitar, to make up for any lack of band, or lack of technology loosely masquerading as a band, then caressing the instrument with something more gentle on the off chance there are other guitars in the audience offended by its treatment.

Clocking up dozens of solo shows a year in a working territory that would swallow up several small warring European nations, Chris has worked the wineries, wheat-bars, festivals, folk clubs and house concerts pretty much all over the bottom left-hand corner of the continent for more than a decade. In that time there's also been reputation building marathon three and four hour shows, band stints in legendary LA clubs on desperate last ditch international tours, self-financed American cafe tours all the way back to self-promoted shearing shed concerts in country Western Australia driven only by an acoustic guitar and tales to tell.

In the meantime, go see him. He's quite good.
