What's coming up at Mountain Pickers
The Weathered Heads
The Weathered Heads are a foot-stomping country bluegrass band from Gembrook in Victoria. Formed in 2008 this five piece band play bluegrass, alt-country and Americana musical genres. It all comes with an Australian streak, a tradesman’s touch and a bit of dinkum chinwag! Comprising a mix of guitars, mandolin, banjo, dobro, violin and electric bass, the Weathered Heads keep up a lively sound with rich vocal harmonies, raging banjo, meaningless banter, flailing fiddle and hip-swaying rhythms. This is a band that will keep you smiling throughout their set.
