DARREN HANLON XMAS SHOW

Melbourne



Back in 2005 he decided to finish his year with just two shows, one at Sydney’s Mandarin Club and the other at the Northcote Social Club in Melbourne. It was meant to be a one off situation but each year it seemed to grow under its own steam.

This year he’s planned out yet another lap around the country playing in city pubs, bookshops, cinemas, churches and country halls. It'll be business as usual, an informal evening with Hanlon armed with his beat up old guitar and a road-worn banjo, playing solo and dipping into his expansive and ever-growing catalog of narrative songs.
