Selby Folk Club

"The best kept secret of the Dandenongs" - Washington Irving

On the first Friday of every month, Selby Folk Club invites a feature artist and support act. It's live, it's acoustic and it's as intimate as having a house concert in your lounge room.

Up Next

Tim Woodz

Folk Festival funny man and Maldon Ministerial award winner (2011). Tim Woodz has supported ex TISM Damien Cowell’s Disco Machine at the Corner Hotel and played multiple supports for Tex Perkins and the Dark Horses. A reporter after a gig at Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory wrote:

“Tim Woodz is the kind of person your Mum or Dad would describe most fittingly as a ‘duffer’… but Woodz’ charm played a big part in the audience warming up to him. He was all grins and silly anecdotes, putting the crowd at ease and holding court over a few tall tales.”

Tim is famously known for his Possum song, Tall Trees and Laundromat songs and on his on stage witty character. Tim’s Jazz trained guitar style with a blend of folk stories and quirky tales will please the poetic lovers in all the young at heart.


 

Coming Up

Bush Gothic

Rattled by the bones of convicts and steeped in campfire smoke, Bush Gothic perform darker, stranger Australian folk. Defiantly modern, achingly old, this most daring of Australian bush bands from Melbourne, Australia perform songs of criminal women and desperate men from an era of transportation, adventure and gold.

Sal Kimber

Sal Kimber

Sal’s authentic and warm stage presence, storytelling and antipodean vocals, along with the captivating musicianship of her close-knit band has seen the five piece win over loyal audiences all over Australia. With over eight years of consistent regional and urban touring, countless festivals and three studio albums behind them, Sal and The  Rolling Wheel create soulful, playful and powerful live shows that inspire both the tapping of toes and the tugging of heartstrings.
