Featuring award-winning songsmith Brian Ward, the masterful guitar work of Marcus Sturrock (including his trademark guitar body percussion) and the lovely vocal tone, agility and harmonies of Jenny Ward.
Marcus Sturrock - Master Guitarist:
This unique and highly regarded guitarist takes the audience on a journey through styles ranging from Celtic tunes to world music, interspersed with trademark driving percussive solos played on the guitar body. He delivers an inspiring aural treat of technical, emotional, classical and funky originals.
Widely travelled on the Australian and International festival circuit, Sturrock has played and jammed with a virtual brag book of musicians and has developed a reputation being a wild and gifted performer. This gentleman guitarist's performance and passion speak for themselves.
