MT WARNING – DAN HANNAFORD – YAZMINDI + DJ ASHTON
MT Warning has released three albums to rave reviews including the much-streamed track ‘Sinking Sun’. He’s played festivals both in Australia and abroad including spots on Splendour in the Grass, Laneway Festival, SXSW and UK’s Field Day and toured with likes of The Temper Trap and Gang of Youths. Currently playing a run of sold-out dates of his theatre show The Magic of The Mundane, we’re thrilled to have MT Warning at Murbah Open Day!
Born the Son of a preacher, Dan Hannaford’s love of music started with listening to hymns and playing the drums in church as a child. By his teens, he found Rock & Roll and formed his first band. Since then, Hannaford has earned a reputation as one of the hardest working, independent solo musicians on the East Coast and graced hundreds of stages around Australia including Falls Festival, Party in the Paddock, National Folk Festival, Gympie Music Muster and Tamworth Country Music Festival to name a few.
Whether performing at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas (twice), Woodford Folk Festival or supporting Aussie icons such as Megan Washington and Troy Cassar-Daley, singer-songwriter Yazmindi’s authentic sound and evocative stories are always a crowd favourite. With gorgeous vocals, acoustic guitar, her signature harmonica flair and stomp box – Yazmindi is the breath of fresh air we all need to kick off Murbah Open Day 2024!
Plus vinyl DJ Ashton will be spinning a set of his signature smooth groove with lounge vibes that are super fun for the whole family and local legend Shorty Brown will keep the kids entertained with big bubbles, magic, silly games, facepainting and more.
Those in need of sustenance at Murbah Open Day are in for a treat with some very tasty options available. From handmade and freshly baked Byron Bay Pretzels to artisan pizza from Gunter’s Flammkuchen and delicious wurst from The Kranski Sisters food truck, you won’t go hungry! Plus, masters of the grill, The BBQ Roadshow will be on ground serving up their finest and the local Lions Club on the tongs at the Sausage Sizzle.
Need a bit of retail therapy? Wander the market stalls for everything from vintage apparel to swimwear, socks and bags, handmade jams, jellies, chutneys and sauces, and even skincare.
On that note, Skin Check Champions will be onsite at Murbah Open Day offering free skin checks to the community. Tweed and Byron are hot spots for melanoma, so this is an excellent opportunity to get checked!
Entry to Murbah Open Day 2024 is via gold coin donation and all profits will once again raise funds for Wedgetail Retreat, which provides free palliative care to the Northern Rivers community. Operating without government funding, Wedgetail relies on the support of its community to keep its doors open and continue with the excellent care they provide.
Regular bus transfers will be available to and from locations around Murwillumbah and Tweed, for just $5 each way. Check the website for routes and pick up/drop off times. Bookings are essential.
You know what you’re doing this Saturday!
See you there!
