Team Behind Beloved Aussie Festival Announce New Event

From the team who have delivered the widely celebrated A Hitch To The Sticks regional festival comes a brand-new roving concert experience, As The Cocky Flies, a regional blues and roots travelling circus.

The shows will be held over consecutive weekends in March (Saturday the 5th and 12th), in regional Victoria's Mount Beauty and Moyhu.

The line-up is headed by Ringmaster extraordinaire Barry Morgan, ARIA-nominated soul rhythm explosion Emma Donovan & The Putbacks, and one of Australia's most celebrated songwriters, Neil Murray. 

According to the festival organisers, As The Cocky Flies will deliver a combination of blues and roots music with circus sideshow theatrics, to create a truly unique sensory environment. 

“There’s something magical about the atmosphere of a circus and live music coming to town," organisers said.

"The Ringmaster’s voice booming above the buzz of the crowd, the circus performers death-defying feats, the smell of carnie food, the looming decisions of which show bag to take home, local beers and wine and of course, there's nothing better than dancing the night away.

"Add some of Victoria’s most beloved musicians into the mix and you’ve got an utterly satisfying cross-pollination of art forms, and something brand new for families and regional communities to enjoy and celebrate."
