1. Mulga Wire, no.146, August 2001, p.10. The festival will pay a particular tribute to John Meredith (Merro) who died earlier this year and traditional Australian performers from all around the country will gather to perform in a special venue. The people who sang around campfires, who jammed in pubs (maybe even sang in the bath) and who kept the traditions alive will demonstrate that the tradition is still a living one.

Charlton (Col's son), Colin Charlton (Colin Charlton on TROVE - Relatively a youngster, born in 1927, Colin Charlton is one of those remarkable bushmen who can just pick up any instrument and play it. He was equally at home on accordion, violin, concertina, banjo-mandolin, whistle, and nose-flute. Many of his older tunes were learnt from his musician father.
