When you combine three siblings with a love of music, the chemistry is truly magical, Uncle Jed has that family band feel and you can always tell they love making music together. Uncle Jed started out playing small gigs around Sydney and touring up and down the East Coast of Australia. In 2013 they took the nation by storm with their spine-tingling performances on reality TV show ‘Australia’s Got Talent’. The trio went on to win the competition, giving them a platform to showcase their soulful sound around the country with multiple National tours. Aside from playing in Uncle Jed together they have all gone on to become established session musicians, accompanying the likes of Jessica Mauboy, Casey Donovan, Keith Urban, Guy Sebastion and The Beautiful Girls. “It’s been a while since we have played a show together but when Robbie and Steve call and ask us to play Many Fig, the answer is only ever going to be yes! We go way back to 2012 (refer to video) it’s one of our favourite venues to play”
The Vicky Turner Band are a 6 piece Funk/Soul, Rhythm & Blues band from Sydney’s Northern Beaches, we play a great blend of hits and floor fillers from the Motown era to classic rock and funk through the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s to now.
So bring your dancing shoes because we love to serve up some Funky beats, Motown classics & just mighty fine Rock & Roll!
Featuring powerful vocals backed by five seasoned musicians, Vicky and the band have built up a steady following over the years (since forming in 2005) and we do know how to bring an audience to their feet, playing the hits from artists like Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, James Brown, The Commitments, Blues Bros., Joe Cocker, Boz Scaggs, Doobie Bros., Talking Heads, George Michael, John Mellencamp plus some Aussie Rock classics & much more.
Vicky & the band play the hits you love to dance & sing along to.
So… let’s get this party started!!! see you on the dance floor!
Zoe has a fresh ‘city folk’ sound and particularly relishes lyric crafting, story telling and unique harmonies.

She also won Australian Songwriters Conference (ASC) overall prize (2010) and the 2GO Annual Acoustic Awards (2010) and her proudest feat of all – she is now a full time kick ass mum living on the South Coast learning life the hard way.
