up to?

We’re glad you asked...

We’re about to launch the amazing Brisbane Folk History Project YouTube channel. which will take the form of a fabulous folk fundraising party with food, trivia, tantalising samples from the video collection, wonderful old photos, singing,  dancing and an all-in session.

YouTube Launch Date is

Sunday 30th June
4.30 - tpm
(doors open 4pm)
REd Hill Community Sports Club
Fulcher Road, Red Hill

Meanwhile you can get ahead of the crowd by subscribing to the channel, which currently hosts more than 70 videos including Folkies Old and New Concerts, festival concerts, sessions, dances and other mayhem.

It’s all here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv_oeBO5aJOBiNLUQtgjiMA

The manuscript for Brisbane Folk: Folk music in Brisbane 1950 to now is complete, rich with the memories of over 100 Brisbane folkies across seven decades and three generations. Sadly we haven’t been able to interest a commercial publisher as hoped; however, an excellent local publishing house is willing to partner with us, and together we’ve submitted an application for a grant. If we don’t get this one, we’ll keep trying, and one way or another we’re going to print and distribute this work of love. The book is likely to retail for $39.95, but you can pre-order early and receive your copy at a bargain price. Stay tuned for more info.
