Music By The Sea Festival
A fine breeze brings music greats to Sandgate Town Hall.
Overview
This weekend the 11th annual Music By The Sea festival presents three days of comedy, folk, jazz, classical and world music.
With a great line-up bringing fine artists of diverse genres to the beautiful Sandgate Town Hall, festival goers can expect to see acts from near and far like jazz trio Trichotomy, Melbourne indie/roots band Tinpan Orange, organist Gregory Hartay Szabo and Canadian folk trio Vishten.
Friday’s third act The Birdmann has toured in over fifteen countries, wowing audiences in his tight black suit by juggling plastic bags, drinking tea through his nostril and delivering genre defying jazz comedy.
Legendary crooner Gregory Page has shared stages with the likes of Bob Dylan and Jason Mraz, and released twenty albums.
Brisbane’s Kingfisha (pictured) have been described as “so smooth and understated it verges on soulful”, and have been laying down their reggae/dub sound for five years.
With fifteen acts over three days, and a short film competition to boot, the Music By The Sea Festival has something for everyone.
