Event Details
South Coast Tickets presents… Psycho Zydeco @ Tomerong Hall
Sydney based Psycho Zydeco’s earthy blend of traditional Cajun, blues, and swamp music produces a heady mix of their brand of Zydeco. Driving washboard, drums, guitar and saxophone combine with some amazing accordion playing creating music that will make you move. The Psychos,as their fans affectionately dub them, have established themselves as the country’s premier roots act specialising in the high-energy, uplifting style of music known as zydeco. This music was originally born in the swamplands and bayou area of Louisiana’s Deep South. They haven’t been to Tomerong Hall for quite some time, but that gig is still talked about as one big dance party!
Driving washboard, drums, guitar, saxophone, organ, piano and the odd triangle combine with some amazing accordion playing to create music that will make you move.
Since 2007 Psycho Zydeco have been performing with George Bibicos on piano and Hammond organ, this has led to a greater warmth and diversity in the band’s sound. George’s playing has helped create a fresh vibe amongst the group and has been embraced by fans as a great new addition to the wild ride that is Psycho Zydeco.
With performances at every major music festival nation-wide, TV and radio appearances and three tours of the U.K. and Europe, Sydney based Psycho Zydeco are one of the most successful touring ‘blues/roots’ acts in Australia. All four of the band’s recordings, Swamp Box, Sell Your Soul, Zydeco Factory and Get On Board have been favourably received by fans and critics alike.
The night will kick off with South coastal alternative surfer rock band with indie, funk undertones FiKa – this band from Milton took part in the Young Coasties Song Music Project and will get you on your feet and dancing!
Children under 14 are Free
