Adelaide Songs
“If you love Adelaide you must hear this. Each song is a delight” David Grybowski, Barefoot Review.
‘Adelaide Songs’ is a special presentation of original songs inspired by our city. This acclaimed concert/cabaret was a hit music show in Fringe Festivals, receiving 4.5 stars and glowing reviews. It has since then played to sold-out shows within the History Festival, Umbrella Music Festival, AND Lord Mayor’s Gala Concert.
This unique show began life in 2014 to create some new songs that explored Adelaide’s city, its history, identity, stories and characters with the idea that every city deserves it’s own songs. Seven local songwriters came together with renowned historian Patricia Sumerling and uncovered some of the darker and light sides of the city.
From Don Dunstan to Wang Wang & Funi.

1968: THE BIRTH OF AMERICANA…?
It wasn’t just a year of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. It was the year that absorbed the impact of the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Bobby Kennedy, the growing horror and hopelessness of the Vietnam War. The rise of Black Power and the women’s movement, and the generation gap.
As Time magazine argued twenty years later: “1968 was like a knife blade, the year severed the past from the future”.
Whether it was theatre, youth, war, politics or the media, in 1968 the World was on fire and so was the music!
Mark Duffy and the Sundial Band will perform songs from 1968 by Neil Young, Glenn Campbell, Crosby Stills & Nash, and others.
