About The Fig
The Fig is an exciting and popular live music
venue at Seaforth Bowling club, North Balgowlah (4km from Manly).
It is unusual for a number of reasons.
The Fig:
1. Provides a listening space where patrons can hear the artists without interference from background talking and other noise. The artists are invariably blown away by the attentiveness of our large crowd of regulars.
2. Supports live music - showcases most genres of music from acoustic to big bands with cafe style seating
3. Provides an inexpensive night out - Food & drinks are available at the club from 7pm. Tickets are $25-30
4. Is non-profit, volunteer-run so proceeds go to the performers - after deducting the costs of the venue & soundman the door goes to the artists
6. Provides a variety of music - acts can range from singer-songwriters through to big bands who have been playing at festivals, parties & charity events for years. There will be a mix of styles with covers and originals.
Recorded Live by Radio Northern Beaches
Andrew and Sharon start setting up the gear from 4:30pm on The Fig night. They mixe the sound live then edit and publish it on the web for acts to download.
