New VIC Regional Blues & Roots Tour, As The Cocky Flies, Coming In March

As the Cocky Flies is a new blues and roots regional circus tour from the creators of the acclaimed regional event, A Hitch to the Sticks.

As the Cocky Flies will launch over two consecutive Saturdays in March 2022. The first event takes places on Dhuduroa Country in Mount Beauty on Saturday, 5th March. Emma Donovan & The PutBacks will headline with support from Dallas Frasca, Rich Davies & Low Road and local performers.

As the Cocky Flies travels to Bpangerang Country the following Saturday, 12th March, with an afternoon and evening of entertainment at the Moyhu Hotel. Warumpi Band’s Neil Murray leads the lineup, backed up by Dallas Frasca, Three Kings and local performers.

There’ll be two limited seating, four-hour shows happening at both locations. The first begins at 12:30pm and the second at 6:30pm. Both the Mount Beauty and Moyhu events will be MC’d by Ringmaster extraordinaire, Barry Morgan (famous for his travelling show, Barry Morgan’s World of Organs.)

The organisers envision As the Cocky Flies as “a dazzling fusion of live music and performance art, set beneath a big-top circus tent in two locations across regional Victoria.”
