The Firelight Collective - Impromptu Blues Groove

Blues. Improvised.
(Rehearsal March 2018)

The Firelight Collecitve - Impromptu 12 - Bar Shuffle

In the warm glow of a campfires illumination, at a music festival somewhere last year, tomorrow or perhaps right now, music rises into the night sky riding on the backs of sparks and embers and settles on the campground, enticing others to seek it out and to join in.
This was the idea for The Firelight Collective - a seed which was planted in the mind of Townsville musician Mark Hillman whilst creating music at a festival campfire with other musos sometime back before now. A band made up of musicians who might come and go from time to time like those embers in the night sky, but at the core, like the glowing coals below would retain core members to keep the fire alive.
Right now the collective includes along with Mark, other musicians from the Townsville music scene: Edward Osae on bass, Heather Armstrong on vocals, Tilly Jane on piano and vocals, Dylan Howells on drums & percussion.
And the sound? Eclectic of course! Some songs are roots rock, others a jazz/funk fusion, also some down & dirty psychadelic rock as well as some mellow and soulful tunes to add colour to this melodic spectrum - all of them flavoured with enough groove to keep your hip shaking appetite well satisfied on the dance floor.
Come and warm yourself in The Firelight Collective!!!
