Bizarrely Quartet

The Bizarrely Quartet is the name for a collective of musicians based in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland Australia, who come together to perform in their own unique and playful style of folk-rock, drawing on the combination of their diverse musical backgrounds. The ‘Quartet’ started as a group of three and has grown to a group of six, so the name is a nod to the fact that this band sees no reason to follow all the traditional rules! Audiences will be delighted with their repertoire of original and re-purposed tunes, colourful musical exchanges and sweetly-crooned vocals. Their music journeys across a range of musical styles including classical, jazz, blues, gypsy, country, bluegrass, pop, celtic-rock, world, and whatever takes their fancy.
