An exclusive WA performance at the Perth Blues Club.

Cedric Burnside is coming to Perth for an exclusive WA performance at the Perth Blues Club, Charles Hotel, on Tuesday, March 8.  

The grandson of the great RL Burnside is a four-time winner of the Blues Music Awards Drummer of the Year (2010-14) and recalls growing up without a radio or TV: “My granddad used to play out on the porch, and we’d have parties every weekend. Johnny Woods would come over and blow harmonica, and he’d drink two or three gallons of corn liquor. We just stomped up dirt.”

Tickets are available from Ticketmaster.com.au.
