   About New Dogs Old Tricks
Old hands Neil Adam, Judy Turner and Bruce Packard are joined by young hotshots on the Melbourne music scene Pria Schwall-Kearney (fiddle, foot percussion), Bec Rigby (vocals) Dale Packard (sax percussion guitar vocals) and Gus Rigby (sax, flute, bodhran). It's an all singing, all dancing, all sax and fiddle playing extravaganza, and it's pretty much “all in the family” with husband and wife team Neil and Judy at the core. Their warm and intimate sound is augmented by Judy’s son (Gus), when he's not gigging with his band De Jah Groove, her star pupil (!) (Pria) and one of her buddies from way back in primary school (Bruce). Judy's daughter Rebecca is on lead vocals, stunning audiences with her beautiful and distinctive voice. Bruce's son Dale (23) is also a regular member on drums, tenor sax and vocals, in between gigs with his full time band Ground Components. The duo, Neil Adam and Judy Turner, are established performers at folk festivals all over Australia, in New Zealand and the UK, with three CDs out, and a fourth released with this combo. Songs such as “The Pickers Train” “Old Grey Fergie” “Underground Mutton and Quandong Jam” “Keys To the Field” and "Al Grassby's Grandfather" have all received substantial airplay in Australia, thanks mainly to the ABC. Audiences at Fairbridge Festival in Western Australia were wowed by Rebecca's voice (never have we had so much fan mail!) and by Dale and Gus playing those funky two sax lines through the Celtic tunes.
