You will remember Sue for her spectacular performances in several of Newcastle′s favourite acts including Sligo Maid, Killkenny and The Sue & Mikey Show. As a classically trained opera singer and multi-instrumentalist, (violin, mandolin, guitar & harmonica, though not all at once – yet!)
Sue regularly dazzles audiences with her obscene amount of natural talent. Sue was voted best female vocalist at the 1233 ABC Newcastle Music Awards for 2003.
Dave Carter′s CV is as wide as it is long – and no wonder! He has performed with almost every single Australian musician, alive and dead, that has ever graced a stage within 50 miles of Newcastle. And he doesn′t look a day over 70! He currently performs with The Cooch Potatoes, Gas, 24 Strings and Newcastle′s favourite madcap duo The Loonatic Fringe. David is another multi-instrumentalist, being a dab hand at the guitar, bass, piano, banjo, bagpipes and Irish pipes. He has an amazing collection of musical instruments, some he has even built himself!!!
Mikey has been breaking new ground in the Newcastle music industry for more years than he cares to remember. Although involved in numerous high profile, successful bands including Swanee, The Curvettes, Hussy, Killkenny and The Sue & Mikey Show (the latter two with Sue), Mikey′s biggest claim to fame (or notoriety) would have to be his role in the legendary Funbusters, where his skills as idiot front-man and quirky lead guitarist became a trend setting style. Mikey′s seamless adaptability from rock, Celtic, and folk to commercial material is well respected within the musical fraternity.
