Some risks are worth taking.

When Lily and John decided three years ago to leave the safety net of a full band and embark on the duo project they had no idea what the public reaction might be.

Much to their surprise the public and music industry reaction has all been positive. With a great fan base and two albums in the Top 25 Most Played Australian Blues and Roots Charts Lily and the Drum have had little time to look back.

Described as one of the hardest working duos in Australia they visit Canowindra as part of an extensive run of performances across three states.

Lily and the Drum continue to tour promoting their second full length album "Welcome Change".

Lily on vocals and guitar unites with John on percussion, harmonica and backing vocals to produce a full sound that has been described as "Honest, raw and energetic".

Their music encompasses a variety of genres but can be best described as "Contemporary Blues, Rock and Roots". In addition to their own material, the duo performs a few great tunes from their favourite artists and promise the performance will be a "Musical journey".

"Our lives have definitely changed in the last year," the duo says.

"It has been a welcome change, as we are travelling all over the country meeting great people at our performances. We love performing in the regional centres and also some of the smaller towns. We have made a commitment to include as many as possible whilst travelling between Cities."

Lily and the Drum will perform at Taste Canowindra from 4pm on Sunday, July 26, a two course meal will be included in the ticket price of $55.

There is an option to purchase dessert separately after the show which is intended to finish by pm.Bookings for this show are essential.
