Performing as part of the Christmas in Ballarat 2025 entertainment programme are The Hardies Hillbillies.
The Hardies Hillbillies are a four-piece string band that plays old time music distilled from the mountain dew that forms on the slopes of Hardies Hill Volcano where blackberry juice, turpentine, banjos and fiddles are squeezed from local stills and combine to bring the Appalachian mountains directly to your eardrums!
A mighty fine blend of old timey music as smoky and genuine as campfire roasted pig trotters bringin' a sound that is equal parts twangy, foot stomping and heart rending in its beauty and simplicity.
Spine tingling vocal harmonies and foot stomping fiddle tunes will transport you to a time when music had soul and enlighten you to life's simple truth; that everything sounds better with a fiddle, a dobro, an old upright Bass and a banjo.
