2016 highlight of the year
The Punch Brothers at the Riverside Theatre, Perth. Unequivocally one of the best live music experiences I have ever had - a bluegrass line-up playing everything from jazz to country, folk to classical. All the while, they 'mixed' their own onstage sound by moving toward and away from the single microphone between them.
