Aussie band Powder Blue are performing in Canowindra as part of their East coast tour this Sunday at Rosnay.
Emerging Melbourne band, Powder Blue, is set to make waves in Canowindra this Sunday 16 November, with an electrifying performance that promises to blend their classic style with the warmth of country spirit. The band, known for their unique fusion of psychedelic rock, reggae, and funk, will bring their signature lush and nostalgic sound to the heart of NSW.
Alex Mitchell, the talented drummer and Canowindra native, will be leading the charge as Powder Blue takes to the stage.
A recipient of the Country Education Foundation of Canowindra (CEF) scholarship, Alex’s journey from the rural landscapes of NSW to the bustling music scene of Melbourne has been both inspiring and rewarding. Studying at Monash University, Alex has embraced the vibrant opportunities that city life offers, while maintaining a deep connection to his roots.
“Playing in Canowindra is an incredible opportunity to reconnect with the community that shaped my musical journey,” Alex shares. “The music scene here is all about community and shared experiences, which is a refreshing contrast to the professional, fast-paced environment in Melbourne.
We’re thrilled to bring a slice of the city’s musical energy back home.”
This homecoming is not just about the music; it’s a chance for the band members to experience the charm of Canowindra.
Although their tour schedule leaves limited time for leisure, the band will be staying at Alex’s family farm, providing a unique glimpse into rural life. Alex plans to introduce his bandmates to the town’s vibrant local spots and businesses, offering a taste of Canowindra’s rich culture.
The band’s presence on Triple J Unearthed has garnered enthusiastic feedback, highlighting their ability to create music that resonates deeply with listeners.
