The Backyard Banjo Club play The Retreat Hotel!
We're back baby! With a baby! Nathan has a little baby, who is the new face of the band. Baby's fingers don't work very well yet, but neither do Nathan's, so come see who is the better banjo player!
Two sets from 2 pm, free entry, come celebrate the start of summer, the birth of new life, the brilliance that is all things banjo.

Nathan Power - Banjo/Voxblock
Panfred Reed - slinky piano/stories about Greece

Thomas Young - Slappin' dat Bass
Hailing from Northern Melbourne, The Backyard Banjo Club are a tangled mess of banjo, violin, accordion, saxophone and bass. Sometimes upbeat, sometimes sultry, we don’t take ourselves too seriously and we always have fun. Think Wes Anderson meets Quentin Tarantino for a festival set.
From sell-out Melbourne shows to folk clubs and festivals around the country including Woodford Folk Festival, Yackandandah Folk Festival and Tablelands Folk Festival, we bring tongue-in-cheek stage banter and a healthy dose of instrumental finesse to the stage.
