Come and join us on THURSDAY 2 JUNE 2022 to be spellbound by three amazing live original acts at For Folk Sake!
Sydney NOW presents FOR FOLK SAKE!
~ live original music ~
at The Petersham Bowling Club
ECHO DEER
Echo Deer sing whiskey-soaked country and Americana songs about love, drinking, death and desire. Over the years the band have built a strong following with their high-energy and entertaining shows in the bars and back alleys of Sydney’s inner west. With influences from Old Crow Medicine Show, Fleet Foxes and JJ Cale, Echo Deer blend folk, country, blues and bluegrass with sweet, homespun harmonies. They are regular fixtures on Sydney’s Americana scene and the festival circuit, having featured at Newtown Festival, Majors Creek and the Illawarra Folk Festival.
Their latest EP Side B is available now on Bandcamp, iTunes, and Spotify.

OTHRSHIP
Othrship is an explosive reimagining of 70s prog rock and pop sounds.
Time-tunneling with sensational thrust power, Othrship's crew generate an astonishing pan-galactic blast of progressive, psychedelic rock and pop.

HEIRLOOME
From their misty mountaintop home, Heirloome makes music that is simultaneously fantastical, whimsical and vulnerable. It's enchanting, while being heart achingly honest - tales of grief, love, nature and magic set to shimmering chamber pop & folktronica.
Their debut EP 'Cycles', written after the loss of their younger brother, was released in 2022 via a 'forest funeral' - an interactive online experience that saw people around the world connect as a community through ritual, song and art-making.
Above all, it is this spirit of connection that Heirloome brings to every live performance - whether accompanied by their harp & piano, or their voice alone.
TICKETS
Tickets are $20 (we encourage pre-bookings where possible)
FOOD & BEVERAGE
Local artisanal beer and wine will be available to purchase along with the most medicinal of spirits. The bistro will be open until 9pm, to caress your tastebuds with a smile.

THE VENUE
The Petersham Bowling Club is a family friendly venue in Sydney's inner west that supports live music with gusto and is proudly pokie free. Run by local volunteers who keep the veggie patch colourful and cold glasses overflowing, the heart and soul of Petersham is at 77 Brighton St and has an interesting story. We are proud to support this iconic venue and keep the disco ball spinning.
