Welcome to Brisbane Unplugged Gigs

Sallie Campbell - violin

Dave McGuire - guitar.

Louisiana Swamp Sounds, Ozark Jubilation and Laurel Canyon Inspired Balladry.

After a tour of regional Queensland last year with the Brisbane Cabaret Festival show, Tom Waits for No Man, Sallie, Dave and Alison found themselves spending their down time singing Pogues ballads in Maleny, jamming on Jimi Hendrix tunes in Hughenden , West Indian love songs in West End and digging all manor of blues and roots tunes from Cairns to Gympie. Along the way they discovered a unique interplay between voice, guitar, mandolin and violin which falls somewhere between the worlds of blues, folk, blue grass, roots and country music. Fueled by their mutual passion for a beautiful melody, a haunting refrain and a well turned phrase, they have been writing songs together and have come up with a swath of new tunes at a rapid rate which they plan to record real soon. They have been gigging steadily since December 2010 at places like The Joynt, QPAC and The Gold Coast Arts Centre.
