\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Blues Preachers will take you to another place and time, somewhere between 1920 and 1940. They perform a fusion of good old blues, rags, gospel and hillbilly folk. Driving finger-style and slide-guitar combined with tasteful harmonica and old-school vocal harmonies that create a traditional sound that will have you on the edge of your seats. The Blues Preachers have the reputation as one of the best acoustic blues & roots acts in Australia & have played almost every major festival in the country.\n\n“If pop music is akin to mass-produced lager then The Blues Preachers\u2019 music is more your craft beer.”\n\nJohn Shand – SMH & The Age\n\n“The Preachers specialize in pre-war, rag time blues \u2013 Brother John spinning six string delights while Captain Bluetongue wails on the harp and they combine fine vocal harmonies to make something special indeed. These two could well have written the soundtrack to O\u2019 Brother, Where Art Thou.”\n\nSam Fell – Rhythms Magazine\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
