The Bush Music Club was founded in 1954 to collect, publish and popularise Australia’s traditional songs, dances, music, yarns, recitations and folklore and to encourage the composition of a new kind of song - one that was traditional in style but contemporary in theme.

Duke's Place - Australian Songs in Concert & Session with Margaret & Bob Fagan, Friday 14th August, 7.30-11.30pm
Duke's Place - Australian songs in concert & session with Margaret & Bob Fagan, once better known as that famous bush band, the Tempe Tipsters. Their strong blend of politically-edged traditional and contemporary songs combined with lyrical ballads and great choruses is guaranteed to lift your spirits. Their repertoire is firmly rooted in the folk tradition, with Margaret’s pure voice and Bob’s superb guitar playing combining to ensure their popularity both here and abroad.
And at Duke's Place they are delighted to be singing some songs that were first performed at BMC Singabouts in the 1950s - not by them, they hasten to add!
