   About The Beenies
The Beenies are an all female trio who combine 3-part vocal harmonies with traditional and original tunes to create an exciting and individual sound. Their self-titled debut cd has been met with great enthusiasm by national and international audiences, and their new release Both Near and Far shows that they are continuing to grow and to take the Australian Folk scene by storm. Through their enthusiasm and passion they bring a fresh vitality and energy to an old tradition. You can purchase their recordings at http://www.indie-cds.com/ and http://www.folktrax.com.au/folktrax/NIC001.php I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

(Hi - just enjoyed my visit.)

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...

Poem cum song 2 of 230, walkaboutsverse. 741. com: WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN

Once drove an old sedan, up north,
From a place in Sydney to Cairns;
Then to Kuranda I went forth,
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market,
With fresh fruits of tropical kind;
Walked to the creek through lush thicket -
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe;
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen,
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey,
You go walkabout with your pen.”

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago,
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
