The Backyard Banjo Club
Five piece trad jazz bluegrass bonanza The Backyard Banjo Club borrow from an eclectic mix of the last hundred years of popular music.
Think early Tom Waits meets late Django Reinhardt. High energy up-tempo jazz!
Banjo Club returns to Melbourne's finest Irish pub for 2 sets of original tunes and old jazz standards.
Sunday (tomorrow!) 4 pm.
Don't bring your own banjo, it's more of a concept club where you watch us do our thing than a regular club where everyone gets a crack.
We loved having our new friends Raph and Micah join us on stage for a blues yesterday! They did an incredible job!!!
Kicking off at 2 pm at today, think we'll be outside in the beer garden if the weather holds out, but if it gets rainy we'll be tucked away in the front bar for a cosy time.
Either way it'll be fun! Seeya there.
Bringing this truly chaotic banjo energy to tomorrow.
Imagine it with double bass, accordion, violin in a beer garden with pub meals and lots of friends.
Free entry, 2 to 4.
Ill play the banjo.

Last Backyard Banjo Club gig for 2025 is tomorrow 6.30-8.30 at . It’s been a pretty tough week but that’s why we will still show up, play, make merry and be silly - because we can’t let terror win and the antidote is joy 💕 🕯️🎶❤️ film photography by

Need a Sat afternoon pick me up? Australia's finest original jazz-folk-country banjo band is playing at from 2 to 4.
Weather's looking good for a beer garden show.
Kid friendly (we try not to swear on-stage), hilarious (the band banter is next level) and there's a saxophone (a real live saxophone).
Please don't bring your own banjo. Its a band not a club. But you could bring your banjo if you want to try and claim the lead banjo spot in the band? Actually yes, bring your own banjo.
Bit of I IV V I on a Saturday afternoon?
2 - 4 pm on Saturday we're back at for a couple of sets of our finest originals and some trad jazz country interpretations of other people's tunes.
Yes, there will be Tom Waits, yes there will be Nathan's song railing against government and big corporations, yes there will be some lovely fiddle playing from Phoebe, and for the first time in a long time we've got all 5 OG members together.
Sax and accordion and banjo oh my.
Excellent. Free entry. Come get around it.
