2016 sell-out show!
★★★★ "A big part of the evening's enjoyment, in
fact were Foster's narrations of the back stories of the songs and
recounting and reflecting on his own musical life at the equivalent
times... Especially being played live by one of Adelaide's finest
singers. He has such a lyrical and engaging voice and a flowing gentle
feel on guitar... And it was a real treat to hear that beautiful musical
soul sing and play and tell his stories once again." Michael Coghlan,
The Clothesline
