Bringing music back to the country halls of Australia
Apollo Bay Mechanics Institute Hall Event Details:
Award-winning duoย Wicker Suiteย are hitting the road with their heartfelt and down-to-earth tour:ย The Way That It Was. Inspired by the classic country hall tours of Slim Dusty and Joy McKeanโand following in the footsteps of modern trailblazers like Fanny Lumsden and the Festival of Small HallsโWicker Suite is heading into the heart of rural Australia bringing their music stories and warmth to the halls that once formed the lifeblood of the community.
Wicker Suite is one of the most exciting new acts in Australian country-roots.

But while the accolades speak volumes itโs theirย live showsย that leave lasting impressions: full of exceptional musicianship captivating stories quick wit and deeply moving songs. From nostalgic folk and fiery bluegrassย The Way That It Wasย is a show that honours tradition while making room for the next generation of storytellers.
The duo is looking forward to immersing themselves in the communities that have long been the beating heart of Australian music.
