Melbourne music identity Andy Baylor will present a Sunday session in Bathurst

And the performance will be free.

Andy Baylor, who was born in Melbourne but is based in Bathurst's neighbour Cowra these days, has released 18 albums since 1992 and recently contributed the song Pictures In The Clouds to the Arts OutWest compilation album While The World Waits.

After spending his formative years in Melbourne inner-urban bands such as the Blue Rockets, The Honeydrippers and the Auto Drifters, he went on to cut his teeth playing with visiting USA masters including Jimmy Witherspoon, Big Jay McNeely, Jimmy McGriff and Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

He will perform on Sunday, August 21 from 3pm at Little Alberts at The Victoria in Keppel Street.
