As one of Australia's premier independent bands, Bluehouse have stamped out a unique style with their original folk-flavored pop melodies that mesh powerful, intricate harmonies with inspired guitar and bass playing (along with a healthy dose of sardonic wit thrown in between songs!)
The dynamic duo of Jacqueline Walter and Bernadette Carroll met in a pub in Melbourne in 1995. They have since forged a successful career as a truly independent worldwide touring and recording entity. By honing their performance skills via beautiful singing, clever thinking and hard work Bluehouse have received five star reviews from critics and fans alike.
Bluehouse have independently released two EP's and four full-length CD's --"big", "6 minutes of breathable air" , "These Days" and the brand NEW CD "ONE MORE KISS", produced by fellow Aussie, two-time Grammy nominated guitar legend, Tommy Emmanuel, cgp. After performing sold out shows all over their homeland of Australia, they thrilled European audiences at shows including WOMAD and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Since their firsr tour of North America in 2002, they've wowed audiences at some of the most prestigious music festivals and showcase venues including California WorldFest, Stan Rogers Memorial Folk Festival, Mountain Stage, Philadelphia Folk Festival, the US National Folk Alliance, Kerrville Folk Festival (Texas), Ann Arbor Folk Festival, Freight and Salvage in Berkeley, House of Blues in LA, The Birchmere in D.C, and Austin's Cactus Cafe.
Touring almost constantly, Bluehouse have shared the stage with Neil Young, Cowboy Junkies, UB40, Neil Finn, Elvis Costello, Tommy Emmanuel, Neil Finn (of Crowded House) and others. They've also played to an estimated worldwide listening audience of 200 million on the 'Mountain Stage Radio' out of West Virginia. Look for them on tour in Australia in September 06, followed by a US tour this fall.
The Sydney Morning Herald recognized the band's essential eclecticism, terming their music "delicious folk-pop...tinged at times with sweet gospel soul, before plunging into raucous guitar riffs" and "exuberant, sad, wise, harmonically dazzling...a lively display of both instrumental and a cappella with attitude and polished pop."
Here's what other critics have written:
"This acoustic duo from Melbourne have been winning rave reviews.... they write powerful radio-friendly tunes and twist them with a quirkiness which keeps them outside formula pop." Lesley Sly - ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE
An immensely entertaining and engaging live show has been the hallmark of their success, garnering them such praise as "the best night you've ever had" with "glorious harmony work and individual voices ranging from teardrop soft to thunderstorm forceful"- Geoff Wilson - SCENE magazine.

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on. Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season . LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime. Love Trille & Jiho
