Based in Bathurst, Milltown play a mix of (mostly) old time American string band music and songs influenced by the backgrounds of the band members - rock and roll, Irish, traditional Australian and bluegrass.

Band members are Ken Lambeth (guitar), Tony Stuart (fiddle, mandolin and accordion), James Church (dobro), Mike Cook (double bass) and Rebecca Pagan (clawhammer banjo).

Milltown also do a few original songs and instrumentals.

Any old time band should have at least one song about a chicken, a train or a girl called Sally - Milltown have all three!

If you want to have a preview of their style, check out “Milltown - Choctaw Hayride” (among other songs) on YouTube.
