Darren Griffis is bringing his bourbon soaked blues rock to the Bore Campsite at Charlotte Plains on 1-5 July.

Darren Griffis, is a road hardened, seasoned musician with a career spanning over decades. He formed JUKEJOINT in 2021 to showcase his original songs and the band has since gained a reputation for delivering high-energy performances across Australia, from Brisbane to Betoota and beyond. Darren’s music is described as “bourbon soaked blues rock” and draws inspiration from classic rock acts like ZZ Top, Black Crowes, and Rolling Stones.

In 2026, Darren Griffis is expanding his musical horizons by embarking on solo acoustic performances around Australia and New Zealand, while continuing to play with JUKEJOINT. This move demonstrates Darren’s versatility as a performer and his commitment to connecting with audiences in different formats. Whether fronting JUKEJOINT or stripped back solo, his performances are raw, honest and forged on the road. 

As Darren Griffis continues to evolve as an artist in 2026, he remains true to his authentic and passionate approach to music-making. His dedication to live performances, both with JUKEJOINT and as a solo act, showcases his commitment to delivering genuine musical experiences in an era often dominated by fleeting fame and short attention spans.

Kane Vincent will be performing at the Bore Campsite from 10-20 August 2026.

What’s a chef to do when he’s over the smoky grills, long hours, family drama, relationships, and life in general? Some blokes buy a Harley, some chase younger women, well Kane Vincent took the advice of a Jason Isbell song to “find what makes you happy … and do it till you’re gone,” picked up his old Maton, and got stuck into it.

Over the last seven years he’s lugged that guitar from pubs, to parties, and festivals, but is no longer singing in the kitchen. A loveable spirit, impressive song writing, and engaging vocals won him the 2024 Country On Keppel Talent Search; a definitive “I reckon I can do this” moment.

Keenly observant, Kane finds lyrical inspiration in both the mundane and extraordinary stories of the everyday. These songs have a folk/pop sensibility, a soulful edge, more than a hint of country and a familiar nod to the blues.

Jonah James will be performing live at the Bore Campsite at Charlotte Plains from 26 September – 2 October 2026.

At just 24, Jonah is an award-winning Folk/Roots artist who has conquered stages across Australia and internationally. The 2022 Australian National Busking Champion turned festival headliner, Jonah’s musical journey spans more than a decade — from street performances at 13 to representing Australia at the Buskers World Cup in South Korea.

A gifted multi-instrumentalist mastering banjo, guitar, bass, cello and more, he’s graced iconic stages including Tamworth Country Music Festival and Gympie Muster. From humble busking beginnings to achieving his dream of making a full living from music, Jonah seamlessly blends traditional country roots with contemporary appeal that resonates wherever he performs.
