Thornbury Bowls Club presents THE LEGENDS OF SUNBURY featuring MADDER LAKE, SPECTRUM and PHIL MANNING.
SUNBURY POP FESTIVAL 72’ to 75’ was often regarded as a major milestone in Australian Music history.
Madder Lake played the 72, to 75 festivals and then went on to support the Rolling Stones on their Australian 73’ Tour later that year and were the first act to be signed to Mushroom Records- delivering the company their first Gold Record with the brilliant album ‘Still Point’.
Next, we have Mike Rudd’s Spectrum, arguably Australia’s most popular Progressive Rock Act. Spectrum’s Number One National Hit ‘I’ll Be Gone’, released a year earlier, had already become an anthem with the Australian public – it’s since been covered by Australian artists from John Williamson to Lost Ragas and internationally by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band.
And finally, we have the guitar maestro Phil Manning, well known founding member of Australia’s best Blues/Rock Band Chain.
So come, re -live, celebrate the nostalgia and great music with these three Artists that still remain today; and who were part of the so called Golden Era of Australian Rock Music.
