$18 – $20

Doors open 7pm

An all-American night with the Trippy Hippy Band with special guests those old hippies, Margaret & Bob Fagan support from Jack Peck @ The Loaded Dog

Maybe it’s the outstanding vocal harmonies, or their far out folksy guitar, but Joe & Harmony’s Trippy Hippy Band are renowned for getting their audiences 8 miles high with an authentic recreation of the 60s vibe and their trippy hippy acoustic renditions of music from the revolution.

They are like totally the most far out and fun band in the universe, man, and they are ready to entertain at your festival, venue, function, wedding or Lions Club. You should check them out, seriously, can you get behind it?!

Joe & Harmony’s Trippy Hippy Band gives their audiences quirky, energetic stage shows, packed with a variety of crowd pleasing songs from the Woodstock generation. Trippy tunes, Simon & Garfunkel standards, and hits from such artists as Bob Dylan, Tiny Tim, The Mamas & The Papas, Buffalo Springfield, Donovan, Joan Baez, John Sebastion….Like wow!

Jack Peck arrived in Australia in 1983 for a three year work assignment and never left. Worked in IT Projects at the “pointy end of town” until retiring in 2005, then after being teased by a friend a couple of years ago dug out his old Martin D-28 and began playing again. Jack worked night shift in a steel mill all summer of 1967 to buy that guitar. It’s still his one and only.

As an undergraduate at Penn State University in the mid-60’s, Jack’s early folk heroes were Joan Baez, PP&M, Tom Paxton, Tom Rush, Joni Mitchell, Reverend Gary Davis, Mississippi John Hurt, Jim Kweskin’s Jug Band, Eric Anderson, The Greenbriar Boys, Koerner Ray & Glover and on and on. You get the idea: It was that time of musical rediscovery, ferment and creativity that exploded onto the campuses throughout the 60’s. It was also the time of Vietnam, so protest ferment defined that period too: Jack marched off-campus once for the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).

Jack has been playing open mikes around Sydney for the past year. Not a songwriter himself, he mainly covers the singers and songwriters of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, particularly Stan Rogers, Linda Ronstadt, John Gorka, Bonnie Raitt, John Prine and Steve Goodman among others.
