Upcoming Gigs
Rogue Elements will be bringing their swamp roots, alt rock stylings to The Coffs Harbour Hotel on Saturday 4 th May. Hailing from the Northern Rivers, Rogue Elements brings together the notable talents of singer/songwriter and multi instrumentalist Bill Jacobi, acclaimed blues drummer and singer Nick Churkin and bassist and singer Robbie Renfrew.
As a bass player with the likes of Floyd Vincent, Shane Howard and Neil Murray, Bill brings a solid commitment to the groove to his guitar, dobro and banjo playing. Nick cut his teeth in the Sydney blues scene playing with a long list of luminaries including the legendary James T as well as fronting his own band Swamphouse from behind the kit. Scottish born, Robbie started playing in bands out of Glasgow as a teenager and has toured the world with a long list of acts before making Australia home.
With lifetimes of musical experience between them and a swag of album credits, national and international tours to their names, these evergreens serve up a blues tinged mix of swamp roots, alt country and folk rock, with lashings of hillbilly funk thrown in on the side.
Unison is a dynamic and experienced live music act playing a perfect blend of feel-good tunes. Catchy melodies and tight grooves can be tailored to suit any venue, whether you need sit-down atmosphere or have a dance floor to fill. A crowd-pleaser on the Coffs Coast since 2018, Unison’s self-produced debut album has also received warm world-wide reviews with regular airplay on local, national and international independent radio stations.
