"The best kept secret of the Dandenongs" - Washington Irving
Clint is bringing his band AND new album to SFC!!
Melbournian Singer Songwriter Clint Wilson possesses that rare and special something in his songwriting, that makes his fans instantly connect to his story. Justifiably compared to the likes of Paul Kelly and Crowded House, Clint’s nostalgic Folk, Alt-Country music is an enjoyable amble through the tradition of storytelling in song.
Growing up in Melbourne’s Eastern Suburbs, Clint was exposed to a life of music and performance from an early age. Although his family were not inherently musical themselves, the young singer was encouraged with piano lessons and a love for the guitar before reaching his ninth birthday. Surrounded by the sounds of Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline and Slim Dusty, Clint began a lifelong love affair with the Country sound. Once in high school, Clint took to forming a band with his fellow schoolmates and the rest is history.
Shane & Freo are two members of local hills favourites Mast Gully Fellers and we’re super excited to have them joining us for the night!! They’re going to try and wrangle a violinist too!!
