PBS is inviting all of our listeners to experience the live performances of The Drive Live Easey Street Sessions as part of Live Music Week- all thanks to Coopers.
Check out the full listings below, and score yourself a double pass to any one of these shows by sending us an email with your name, and the show you would like to attend to events@pbsfm.org.au. Winners will be contacted with details.
If you can't make it, still be a part of the action by tuning in to PBS 106.7FM throughout the last week of February and get yourself into the full PBS Live Music Week 2011 program, packed with a diverse range of unplugged and live performances covering a broad spectrum of genres.
And if the week didn’t seem big enough, then come down to Cherry on Saturday 26th February for The Breadmakers, Clairy Browne & The Bangin Rackettes, Harmony and DJ Pierre Baroni, which will be broadcast live on PBS. Doors @ 8pm, entry is by gold coin donation.
A long standing PBS tradition, Live Music Week represents PBS’ unwavering commitment to music performance. Since 1988, Live Music Week has been a stalwart on the PBS event calendar, involving an insane amount of live performances from the PBS studios; all broadcast live over seven days across the PBS program grid.
