| Busking on the streets of Bungendore - Ann Bell and her band. |
I actually knew nothing about it until 9.30 this morning and by 10.30 the teen and I were wandering the streets with my folks listening to the sounds of the country.
 |
| Buskers set up outside cafes, pubs, banks, businesses. |
According to their website, the Muster is actually the only "all Australian" country music festival in Australia and exists to elevate the Bungendore community while at the same time bringing focus to Australian country music.
But the buskers are a part of it.
 |
| Some buskers perform alone, others perform in duos or groups |
 |
| Many buskers sing, while others simply play instruments like Mary Hunt with her fiddle. |
People come from all over the state with their tents and caravans to hang out at the Bungendore showground for sometimes up to a full week before the festival which is a great little money spinner for this little country town.
As you know, I'm NO CAMPER, but listening to a few buskers over a cup of tea appealed to me which is why we took the drive this morning.
Oh, and it helped that a couple of the buskers are long lost second cousins of mine. It's always great to catch up with family.
The Bungendore Country Muster is on the first weekend of every February with next year's date being 4-5 February 2017 and the following year 3 and 4 February.
If you're a country music fan or simply a Canberran looking for a day out, check out the muster!
Are you a country music fan?
Do you like listening to buskers?
When was the last time you visited Bungendore?
Bungendore is a half hour drive from North Canberra.
We don't get to many buskers in Nottingham, but I like to listen to them, if they sound good :) Lovely pictures..
