* Danny Freeman - Drums (Brushes) & Percussion
Gathered around Coen’s storytelling, ”The Fathers of Necessity” serve up an intoxicating brew of acoustic blues, gospel and hillbilly. Damian Coen is best known for his lyrical old-time blues harmonica, yet it is his captivating song writing that has led to recent awards and national recognition. His musical association with South Coast fave, Damon Davies, stretches back some 20 years, when they formed legendary Sydney jug band, “The Mudsteppers”. Davies continues to dazzle with his blues-drenched slide guitar and smoky double-bass lines. They are joined by Paul Johnston on acoustic guitar and accordion, and Danny Freeman on drums and percussion. Together, The Fathers of Necessity take you on a ride that weaves through the rich byways of roots music while somehow managing to take on board personal and political narratives of the modern day.
Courtesy of the Candelo Arts Society, The Fathers of Necessity will play at the Candelo Bowling Club on Saturday, July 15. The show kicks off around 7.30pm, and tickets are available for the very reasonable price of $15, at the door. Damian Coen will also have his award-winning CD, Six Lane Highway, available on the evening. Don’t miss this intimate and entertaining opportunity to catch some real music, up close and unadulterated.
