Australian band Rain of Animals to visit Gartly’s Tin Hut

AN AUSTRALIAN band are set to bring the rain down in Gartly with breezy, upbeat rhythms.

Rain of Animals duo, Pepita Emmerichs and Theodore Barnard, will appear at the Tin Hut, Gartly, on Saturday, May 11, to bring a night of fiddle, guitar, mandolin and harmonising vocals.

Playing and singing songs of the bluegrass, americana, old-time and swing genres, they have been described as having a sound “unique in instrumental wizardry and musical integrity”.

Americana UK said: “They played brilliantly with scintillating solos on all three instruments.”

Doors open at 7.30pm and the show will start at 8pm. There will be a raffle and attendees are invited to bring their own booze.

Tickets are on sale at the Orb Bookshop in Huntly (cash only) or contact chas@myticefarm.co.uk or 01466720234 for more details.
