The Murgon Rotary Club have announced that Golden Guitar winner Gina Jeffreys will be headlining this year’s 7th annual Murgon Music Muster on November 2-5.
Other performers who’ve already been confirmed for this year’s event include Glen Albrecht, Alec Beckett, Alice Benfer, Rob Breese, Rex Dallas, Laura Downing, Muddy Flats, Brian Letton, Jann Maree Mitchell, Arthur Nettelfield, Bridget O’Shannessy, Dean Perrett, Vanessa Sanger, Clarrie Weller and Ash Williamson, but more are expected to be announced in the next few months.
The popular event is held at the Murgon PCYC, with caravanners packing out the adjoining Murgon Showgrounds for four days of non-stop professional and walk-up country music action.
Andrew Beckett from Bullroarer Sound Productions will one again be overseeing the Muster’s sound system, and Bill Kearns will be compering, with Cr Kathy Duff acting as master of ceremonies.
South Burnett Mayor Keith Campbell will perform the official opening at 1:30pm on Friday, November 3.
This year, students from Murgon State High School and the Wakka Wakka Dance Group will also be joining the entertainment line-up, and Earlyact and Interact will be giving presentations.
The Muster will also feature daily Bush Poet Breakfasts, and a Gospel Concert from 9:00am to noon on Sunday, November 5 followed by an afternoon concert.
Four day passes to the Muster are $60, but guests can also buy single day tickets: $10 for Thursday, $20 for Friday, $25 for Saturday or $15 for Sunday.
Murgon Rotary have warned that because last year’s Muster was almost booked to capacity, tickets this year will be limited so early bookings are advisable.
Tickets can be obtained by email or by phoning Heath Sander on 0418-786-007.
Powered and unpowered sites will also be available from Monday, October 30 for $9 and $7 per night, respectively, on a first-come, first-served basis.
On-site catering will be available throughout the four days, and a bar will also be operating.
