An evening that pays tribute to Jimmy Little and his musical legacy. Jimmys original band - the Jimmy Little Trio - was formed in 1963 and consisted of guitarist Cyril Green, Doug Peters on drums and bassist Neville Thorne. They toured for over a decade and were the first Indigenous country music band to release an album, to feature on Australian TV, and to perform at the Sydney Opera House. This rare tribute concert will feature Jimmys talented grandson James Henry as lead singer with two of the original band members - Cyril Green and Doug Peters plus Tony Green stepping in for the late Neville Thorne, and longtime collaborator Kenny Kitching on pedal steel. Guest drummer will be Jimmys manager and CEO of the Jimmy Little Foundation Graham Buzz Bidstrup, from the Angels and GANGgajang. A very special treat for this evening will be Emma Hannah on vocals.
