Event information
As The Weeping Willows, decorated storytellers Andrew Wrigglesworth (guitar, ganjo, lead vocals) and Laura Coates (lead vocals) have long turned their attention to the dim-lighted byways of a fallen world: places haunted by ghosts and jilted lovers alike; by the lost and the lonely, the heartsick and the harried—by the dying, the desolate and the doomed. It’s a fascination scored to singular perfection by the pair’s unmistakable vocal harmonies and timeless country-folk instrumentation.
3 x CMAA 'Golden Guitar', 2 x Australian Folk Music and Music Victoria Award winners, The Weeping Willows are a couple of old souls, steeped in Bluegrass tradition and draped in Gothic Americana imagery. They regale their audiences with stories of sunshine and romance, God and The Devil, murder and decay.
In recent years they have supported Katherine Priddy (UK), Lukas Nelson & POTR (USA), Hayes Carll (USA), Iris DeMent (USA), Willie Watson (USA), Eilen Jewell (USA), Kevin Welch (USA), Hannah Aldridge (USA) and completed national and international tours in support of their three albums, including sophomore LP, Before Darkness Comes A-Callin', which received four-star reviews in Rolling Stone, The Australian
