Episode 11 - The East Pointers

from Beyond The Stage: The Road to Port Fairy Folk Festival · host Port Fairy Folk Festival

Episode 11 has Jake from The East Pointers telling Frank about their history and heading up to 10 years of touring in Australia.  Along with Tim & Koady, we learn about their just released new material written before the sad passing of Koady, and continuing the band as a two piece.  As early starters during childhood, we learn about the origins of the band with the Celtic traditions from their home in Prince Edward Island - the hard, long winters, saved by the fiddle session traditions that continue to this day in their unique homeland.  With some new singles ahead of their return to the Folkie in 2025, we can’t wait to have The East Pointers back in south west Victoria. Thanks to the legendary Southern Ocean Sea Band for providing their track ‘Whaler’s Rig’ and our wonderful host, Frank Davidson.
