Day 3 BLUESFEST 2015

Bluesfest 2015

Day 3 - Saturday Night

There is definitely no better place to spend a Saturday night then at Bluesfest. For some reason it was the night to also bump into and catch up with family and friends. Such a good time, the vibe was chill, and it was awesome having the chance to hear some great music, share some great food and yarn with mob from Lismore, Ballina, Tweed, and of course the usual local suspects from Mullumbimby and surrounds.

Being the chilled Saturday night that it was, I only got around to seeing 3 live acts, The Melbourne Ska Orchestra, Hozier and The Gypsy Kings. Not bad, not bad at all.

The night started off with the party sounds of The Melbourne Ska Orchestra, led by former Bomba frontman, Nicky Bomba himself. Assembled from some of Australia’s pre-eminent names in Ska and Reggae, the soaring popularity of the Melbourne Ska Orchestra is fast cementing the group as a fixture in Australia’s musical landscape. The 26 (often stretching to 34) piece multi-ARIA nominated collective has acquired an impressive, ever-growing overseas fan base, playing iconic gigs including Glastonbury Festival and Montreal Jazz Festival, to name a but a few.

Joining the group onstage was a host of guests. Up first was Bluesfest Director, the ‘Bossman’ himself, Peter Noble, helping out on vocals for a rousing rendition of The Specials ‘Message To You Rudy’. For many it brought back memories of when these Ska legends played Bluesfest themselves back in 2012. Pat Powel, one of the vocalists from Diesel ‘n’ Dub also made an appearance, as did emerging Torres Strait Islander singer/songwriter Chris Tamwoy, who gave a supreme and honest statement about the forced closure of Aboriginal Communities, to a totally supportive and vocal crowd. I first saw Chris at Homeground last year at The Sydney Opera House, and it was so inspirational to hear him now up on stage at Bluesfest 2015 with just his words, which ended with, “It’s not a lifestyle choice for us mob to live on our traditional lands, it’s our birth right”. Respect!!!

Nicky Bomba also invited a representative from the Green Rangers to let the audience know that there were collection buckets being passed around to raise funds for The Thing Green Line Foundation. The project raises funds to purchase mosquito nets for rangers who protect wild animals from poachers in Africa. At the end of the act, from the 4 buckets that were passed around, the beautiful punters of Bluesfest 2015 donated $3000. Once again, for Nicky, and for the festivalgoers, one word – RESPECT!!!

There’s one more word that needs to be said as well about Saturday night at Bluesfest 2015 – Hozier. The Irish singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist accumulated a strong underground following through Spotify, You Tube and radio success, gathering momentum and rapidly burgeoning into international stardom. He made his Bluesfest debut on Thursday 2nd April 2015. I only caught the first few songs of his first gig so made sure I was there on Saturday to see his whole set.

It was here during Hozier’s performance that the true beauty of Bluesfest was realized, and that is the memories that are made, the emotions that are felt, and the union that is created with all. Everyone has a story…moments that make Bluesfest, the communal, to memories made with lovers, and friends and also the deeply personal, and the deeply private…this element, this precious gift is what keeps us all returning year in and year out.

From the folk I talked to before and during Hozier’s gig, all mentioned that they were waiting to hear ‘that song’, and 24 year old Hozier kept us all rocking and waiting right until the end of his set to take us to church. When he played the first few notes of his signature hit, the whole crowd went absolutely crazy, and that energy, combined with the lighting and the song itself, blew the roof right off the capacity filled tent and it felt like a full blown religious revival. Definitely one of many magical moments of Bluesfest 2015.

From Ska to Rock, my night then finished off with a big luscious hit of Flamenco with The Gypsy Kings, who let us in on the celebration of their 25th Anniversary. Not one word of English was spoken, yet that didn’t stop us all at The Crossroads Stage feeling the vibe and tradition of these magical maestros. Lucky for me, I had my own personal translator shaking his hips right beside me, and was blessed to have some of the songs explained to me, and if that failed due to the sound and screaming crowd, I just had to watch him and the many other groovers dance to know that this was pure ecstasy we were all feeling, especially so when they pulled out their hit ‘Bamboléo’. Pure magic, and as my mate put it simply, they put the Flame in Flamenco!!!

Oh, and that Stunning Moon...

Thankyou Bluesfest 2015!!!

ONE LOVE
