CJ Stranger
CJ Stranger returns to Dungog with his band Sunday 12 May. An indie-folk songwriter with notes of Dylan, Paul Kelly and Kurt Vile. CJ has released two new albums since he last visited Dungog. As well as being a songwriter, CJ’s innovative guitar playing style has been widely recognised and has led to work with an impressive list of Australian artists including John Schumann (Redgum), William Crighton, Middle Kids, Melody Pool, Magpie Diaries and many more.
“CJ shares that rarefied air with the likes of The War On Drugs, Bob Dylan and Kurt Vile – fellow travellers who understand the possibilities of an expansive sonic palette and lyrics that blend the personal and poetically contemplative. On songs such as the new single ‘Author’s Script’, ‘Start Diggin’’ (complete with banjo) and ‘Bowerbird’, CJ’s acoustic playing really shines, even when on the latter it’s consumed and overwhelmed by electric dissonance." - Post to Wire
Tickets: $15.00 (plus a ticket and processing fee of $0.88 per ticket)
