About BLUEGRASS BREAKFAST WITH PETE DENAHY
Hosted by the wonderful Chantel and team at Leavers, you’ll enjoy breakfast in Creswick’s most eclectic, cosmopolitan and cosy bar, while Pete sings his modern classics in company with a raft of special guests.
The man from Yackandandah is fast becoming a national legend. Pete sings and plays guitar, mandolin and fiddle. His song 'Sort of Dunno Nothin' is a YouTube hit and in the ARIA Top 100. His album 'Picture In A Frame' made the top 30 of the ARIA Country Albums chart.
When Pete Denahy talks about his own show, he says, “It’s not rocket science; I’m not the best singer, fiddle player or guitar picker in the world, but as far as I know, no one else is doing my show.” Which is true; there isn’t another show like it. He takes you on a journey that travels from the gold rush days of the mid-19th century to buying toilet paper at your local supermarket. It’s perhaps not a show formula many managers would suggest their acts follow, but it seems to work for Pete. Pete has won several Country Music Awards including Bush Ballad of the Year 2011, Instrumental of the Year 2013, 2014, 2016, Bluegrass recording of the Year 2016.
Leaver's is simply THE place to be seen in Creswick, and over the weekend of CresFest Leaver's will be hosting three special events: "Dinner and Show: Pure Magic" ; "Dinner and Show: West Africa"; “Bluegrass Breakfast with Pete Denahy”. Book early to avoid disappointment.
