A Day Well Spent: Folk – Jack Davies (duo) + Lucy Sugerman @ The Berry Hotel

The Folk trail heads to The Berry Hotel for a double bill featuring Canberra singer-songwriter Lucy Sugerman, followed by one of the day’s headline acts, Jack Davies (duo).

Lucy Sugerman creates soft folk-pop that balances sweetness with bite and charm with emotional depth. Her recent releases pair vulnerable lyrics with melodic hooks, while her growing live résumé includes BIGSOUND, SXSW in Austin, Groovin the Moo and main support on Sons Of The East’s sold-out Australian tour.

Walyalup/Fremantle songwriter Jack Davies is known for rambling poetics, warbled fingerpicking and an endearingly human stage presence. From busking on the streets of Fremantle to touring extensively across Australia, he has built a reputation for intimate performances filled with laughter, sorrow and beautifully understated songwriting.

For his Berry performance, Jack is joined by George Gare from the original Bush Chooks. The duo will perform original songs alongside a few new ones, layering warbled guitar and shimmering harmonies in a set full of warmth, character and the occasional creaking chair.

Make an afternoon of it at the Berry Hotel, with drinks flowing and a great line-up of live folk music. Bookings optional.
