Fred Smith @ Dangar Island

About
“Fred Smith is simply the best folk/country musician working in this country…beyond writing some of the finest songs about Australians at war, he has created a repertoire that is wry, literate, witty, powerfully emotional & insightful.” (Bruce Elder, SMH).Fred Smith blends tunes you can whistle with stories you will remember. His songs are subtle, wry & perceptive. He is a favourite on the Australian festival circuit, loved for his worldly wit, gift for story & melody, and sublime collaborations with Liz Frencham & The Spooky Men's Chorale.
Fred was recently awarded an Order of Australia for his services to music & foreign affairs. He was the subject of an ABC TV documentary about his work as a diplomat in Afghanistan and conflict zones in the South Pacific.
Fred will be playing songs from his rich back catalogue. You will be moved & entertained by the songs and stories of Australia’s finest contemporary balladeer.
