Nic Danta is a Katoomba based singer-songwriter and one-time performer with the Spooky Men’s Choral. Nic blends Dylan-style folk music with pop sensibilities influenced by Billy Bragg and the Cure.
Performing with Nic will be two Blue Mountains legends, Matt Tonks on guitar, piano and vocals and Paddy Connor on Irish Pipes. As a group, they create moody and emotional music with lyrics that tell intimate stories of people and place.
Nic will be launching his album, ‘Buried at Sea’ and you can view Black Dog, the first video from the album below.
This gig will also be a chance to farewell Neill Duncan, the heart and soul of music in the mountains who sadly passed away in December 2021. Neill produced and played on Nic’s album and should have been sharing the stage.

Crow Mountain are an Australian old-time country and folk group, performing original, traditionally flavoured tunes of unnerving honesty and effortless beauty.
Drawing on their Blue Mountains roots, Megan Legg (mandolin) and Ben Thomas (banjo and guitar), blend old-time, bluegrass instrumentation with honey-dipped harmonies, painting aural portraits of human frailty and grit, sorrow and strength, love and redemption. Their original songs are rich in the sound and story-telling of traditional country music – of growing up in isolation; jumping freight trains to get where you need to be; of getting out of town and returning beaten, with the past at your heels.
They released their debut EP, ‘Shallow Water’ in 2018, and their new EP,
‘The Higher We Go’ is available to purchase and stream now.

Jon Flood is a fingerpicker and folk experimentalist who resides in Blackheath, NSW. Flood composes nylon-string guitar songs influenced by the likes of John Fahey and Nick Drake, but perhaps more closely resembling the style of more modern composers such as Josephine Foster. Jon Flood is one half of Blue Mountains folk duo Moon and Flood, who released their debut self-titled E.P. in December 2019. Jon’s album ‘In the Hills’ was released via Bandcamp in May 2020.
