Side by Side – Live at Briagolong Mechanics Institute
Friday 3rd October | Doors 6:30pm | Music from 7pm
BYO drinks, nibbles, rugs, cushions – make yourself at home
Come and be part of something special as three singer-songwriters — Ally Row, Todd Cook, and Ricki Wood — share the stage side by side for an evening of original music, honest stories, and heartfelt connection.
Ally Row blends toe-tapping energy with raw emotion. Armed with velvety harmonies, guitar, piano, modernised banjo, harmonica, and stomp box, their dynamic sound breaks genre barriers and brings audiences to their feet.
Todd Cook’s emotive lyrics, earthy tones and raw appeal connect with a wide variety of listeners. His songs float from intricate folk fingerpicking styles to driving rhythms that stir the soul. With mesmerising instrumentation and stories drawn from Australian landscapes and everyday people, Todd brings a depth that constantly engages and entertains.
Ricki Wood is a country folk and acoustic singer-songwriter whose music walks the line between earthy simplicity, humour and emotional depth. Drawing from a life well-travelled and a heart still wide open, Ricki shares songs shaped by personal experience and a quiet yearning for something more — connection, truth, and the kind of meaning you don’t always find in words.
This is a family-friendly, community-inclusive event where everyone is welcome. Bring your drinks, your snacks, your blankets, your favourite people — settle in and soak up the kind of night that reminds us why music matters.
We’d love you to come and make some memories, share some laughs, and be part of the connection.
BYO drinks welcome — just remember it’s a shared community space, so please enjoy responsibly and look after one another.
