Venue: Aunty Ed's, 122 Katoomba St, Katoomba.
Kick back and banish the pre-week blues at Katoomba's best bar and burger joint, with a serving of the Blue Mountains best live music on the side. With nostalgic decor, old-school meals, craft beers, regional wines and retro cocktails, Aunty Ed's Katoomba will be THE place to hang out on a Sunday evening. But book ahead - Aunty Ed's is a locals favourite night out.
This week, BEN CONNOR & THE BUTTERMAN will be dropping in for a couple of sets. Soul-driven blues, folk, rock singer-songwriter, Ben Connor, has been described as the musical love child of Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave and David Gray. His cohort, multi-instrumentalist, Stuart Christie (‘The Butterman’), has entertained audiences around the nation and across the seas as a musician and physical theatre and circus performer with companies such as Circus Oz, Strut and Fret, Dislocate and Kage.
Together, Katoomba locals, Ben Connor & The Butterman combine the evocative lyrics, compelling melodies and warm well-worn vocal cords of a seasoned singer-songwriter with the style and theatrics of a professional circus performer.
