11 July 11 Stockade is Back!

RedFest is excited to welcome back to the stage in 2011 the wonderful talents of Stockade. STOCKADE enchants audiences around Queensland with the fabulous original songs of Chuck and Chrissy Euston. Their unique blend of blues and folk, Celtic and gospel styles, with hints of bluegrass and gypsy jazz is second to none.. With roots in Brisbane, then spending over 25 years working and travelling throughout the country, Chuck and Chrissy share a great passion for Australia and its amazing landscape and history. Their lyrics often reflect its beauty, and our need to preserve its treasures. Also woven into their songs are the stories of our pioneers, and of family living and departed. They entertain with humorous takes on the Aussie way of life, personal anecdotes and philosophies, as well as tales of growing up and growing old. Their performances are vibrant, emotive and carry an unmistaken positive and uplifting undercurrent. ‘Music is like love…it only works when you give it away’ Quotes from their audience: STOCKADE “make the audience feel included”; “are always performing new songs”; “are my favourite band”; “are so natural and engaging on stage”; “ they’re a class act”.
