Big Blow and the Bushwackers

CAC TRADITIONAL & FOLK MUSIC CONCERT SERIES

Saturday, September 18 at 8:00pm
STUDIO 194 THEATRE
Tickets: $15 ($12 CAC Members)
Buy Tickets Online

Kicking off the fall CAC Traditional & Folk Music series, Big Blow and The Bushwackers bring their incredible showmanship and over-the-top stage show to CAC. What began as an improbable duo of mandolin player Ted Porter and PVC-pipe didjiriduist Tim Whittemore, quickly evolved into a quintet that blended folk and world music with both the comedic and the surreal. And the music always has a Celtic undercurrent.

Not the typical band, it’s hard to categorize the band’s music. One fan described it as “They Might Be Giants meets Pink Floyd.” The Washington Times wrote “...envision a gang of Aborigines hijacking an Irish pub.” Ted Porter simply called it “rock and roll!”
