About The Listening Room

THE LISTENING ROOM

Come along to the very first “LISTENING ROOM” event on the 20th of September at the Taree & Old Bar Surf Club, featuring ZARB BROTHERS, Matt, Pauly & Johnny with Scott Greenaway.

“THE LISTENING ROOM” has been created by musicians, for music lovers to experience, not only the fabulous music of an artist, but to hear the stories of the songs and their journeys in the music industry.

In the feel of the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, be ready for something completely new to our community.

You will be looked after by the friendly staff at the surf club with a fully licensed bar, but feel free to bring snacks if you wish.

Stay tuned for the 2026 monthly calendar to see who’s coming to town.

ZARB BROTHERS

Matt and Pauly have spent years on the road together performing and writing songs. Their story is massive after so many years playing together, seven of those in Bardstown Kentucky, where they both lived and played.

They have produced many recordings together, one of which (Vincent Rd) was awarded folk album of the year in the Queensland Recording Industry Awards.

Pauly now resides in the UK, so this is a rare reunion of the brothers in this setting.

Brother Johnny is an avid guitar player, also writes beautiful songs and has a wonderful story, having spent over 20 years living on the land at Dyers Crossing.

The three together along with Scott Greenaway, who will host the evening as well as play bass, will be a fantastic show and experience.
