☛ Headlining ~ "HiddenAce" ♠

Four Coastie boys from various Musical influences.

Matt Stalgis, Josh O’Brien and Grant Molloy had played together for several years earlier before the arrival of singer Matty D. These guys are totally original in every way. Their style is an exhilerating blend of Funk, Rock and Bluesy sounds. Some of their fans have dubbed their style as “Funk’n’Rock”. What ever you call it, you can't help moving to it. As a man once said “Do your self a favour......come and experience HiddenAce......you won't be sorry!”

Preliminary hearings of several demos has generated large amounts of positive feedback and a growing fanbase.

Christian Marsh - Diatonic & Chromatic Harmonica

Christian's playing will open your mind to the versatility of the harmonica. Christian's trademark is a particularly pure and sweet tone, which he weaves through simple melodies to create lively and complex musical arrangements. This tone is so effective that some of Christian's more emotive works have on several occasions moved members of the audience to tears! 

He has played every idiom, from country and blues to jazz and classical, playing with many of the top artists in the music industry. Highlights of his career include a national tour with the hit stage musical "Big River", three national "Gold Harmonica" awards, two of his own CD's and performing as a guest artist on twenty more. He has distilled his unique sound from this wide experience. His current work "The Sketch" is jazz, but other than that, hard to label.
