Michael Waugh
Selby Community House 1 Minak Road, Selby , AustraliaMichael is back at Selby to launch his new album 'What We Might Be' produced by Shane Nicholson. This collection of songs tell stories inspired by those American musicians and songwriters who were the soundtrack of Michael's childhood. The texture of their rhyme and meter is the shacks and bars and snowdrifts of American life. These are replaced by magpies and lawnmowers and footy games - the beauty and poetry reflected in every day rural life. Maffra, Heyfield and Sale may not have the exotic twang of Nashville – but there's the Macalister Hotel, Mafeking Hill, the Heyfield Timber Mills and more cows than you would ever want to have to get up at 5am to milk.
