David Claughton – Sunday 9 August

Press Release

Singer songwriter David Claugthon returns to Rosnay Organic Vineyard on Sunday August 9th.
Well known for his long career with the Country Hour on ABC Radio, David has a collection of songs tapping into life on the land, along with some beautiful and sometimes painful love stories, searing protest songs and others dealing with the things that challenge so many – drugs, mental health and facing death.
He tells stories from the heart, but they are full of humour, detail and experience from a life spent reporting, travelling and writing.
His range extends across blues, folk, country and rock, playing guitar and harmonica.
Here’s what people said about his last performance at Rosney:
“David’s beautiful voice transported me into new, and familiar spaces, lulled me into far-away places and sensations, I didn’t want to leave.”
Pennie Scott, farmer
“A wonderful get together of fun laughter and new friends. Davids music story telling and his travels made the night more enjoyable as we all got to know the artist behind his music”
Pam McCully, Canowindra artist
“His deep feeling for blues and country, which shows in his harmonica as much as guitar, and a kind of personal engagement with his audience borne of years of experience travelling far and wide across Australia. A magical evening enjoying the intimate, engaging musicianship and companionship.”
Andrew Boughton
David is also performing at the Gilari River Arts Festival.
