String And Bone

Tim Darby writes and performs original songs that fall somewhere in the folk/roots/blues genre. His lyrically driven works invite the audience to join him in the sometimes humorous, sometimes angry, sometimes thought-provoking journey life. His words are accompanied by a sound track picked and strummed on banjo, ukulele and guitar. Quirky, funny, heartfelt and always interesting, he will leave you with happy ears, a warm feeling in your belly and catchy earworms rolling around in your brain long after the performance echoes fade away. A prolific song writer, Tim has been shortlisted for WAM and ASA Song Of The Year.

String and Bone is a trio that combines disparate musical instruments and styles into an unlikely yet engaging new sound. String and Bone is to folk music what peanut-butter and jelly is to primary school lunches.

Comprised of Jerome Argue (kidnapped from Fremantle Chamber Orchestra with his cello), Karri Harper-Meredith (trombone and harmonium player on loan from Junkadelic) and Tim Darby (who learned to play ukulele while milking his goats).

String and Bone combines thought-provoking lyrical story telling with vocal harmonies and some folk funk fusion. . Quirky, funny, heartfelt and always interesting, he will leave you with happy ears, a warm feeling in your belly and catchy earworms rolling around in your brain long after the performance echoes fade away.
