Troubadour Folk: Peter Campbell (Aust)+Charley & the Boys in the Well (Aust)

2 p.m. Sunday 26 July 2026 Everglades Club, Dunban Rd, Woy Woy

A fantastic afternoon of entertaining, inspiring music by two of Australia's freshest and most popular performers. Don't miss this inspiring double bill.

Peter Campbell has willingly carried a Burden of Hope for just on 60 years. Poetic and powerful, this music has a timelessness to it – a rare blend of infectious alt-folk and contemporary relevance in a call to action, connection and healing. It is strong music with a beating heart.

He toured as the support artist for Peter, Paul and Mary in the USA, and his second album, Across the Border, was produced by folk legend Paul Stookey (of Peter, Paul & Mary fame) in Blue Hill, Maine, USA. PP&M covered his song Wild Places on their album Such is Love. His recently released fifth album, Burden of Hope, speaks to the heart of our times without flinching. From rollicking hilarity, to wistful yearnings and passionate visions of hope, his songs weave through the landscape of our shared humanity.

Charley Castle leads her group with the Boys in the Well to produce a fresh and exciting strain of Australian bluegrass. String band-style, with tight-stack harmonies, driving instrumentals, and a uniquely feminine voice, the group are a truly infectious addition to the modern landscape. Winners of Australia's biggest busking competition (Tamworth Country Music Festival 2025), they have spent the past two years kicking up dust, touring Australia top to bottom. A decorated songwriter, Charley writes heartfelt songs populated by the places she's known. With mandolin, double bass, guitar, and a down under flavour, she's making real waves together with the Boys in the Well.
