AUSTRALIAN music legends will be taking to the stage at the Nicholas Hotel in Beechworth next week, celebrating the life and times of Canadian musician Gordon Lightfoot.
The Lightfeet Band, comprising Keith Potger from The Seekers, Fred Pilcher and Gary Luck, will perform some memorable songs including If You Could Read My Mind, The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald, Rainy Day People, Daylight Katy and Sundown.
Hotel Nicholas co–owner Lorraine Lucas said during the performance Keith will do a special tribute to his colleague and dear friend of 60 years, the late and great Judith Durham.
"We're so excited to have them play, it will be a great night," she said.
"Keith Potger, a founding member of The Seekers, composed the distinctive riffs that are the trademark of The Seekers' charts–topping recordings.
"Gary Luck; playwright, television performer and musician, has been playing Lightfoot for more than 40 years and produced a play featuring incidents in the life and times of Gordon Lightfoot which led to two of Lightfoot's biggest hits.
"Fred Pilcher; a regular performer at national folk festivals and on the Sydney folk scene, has played alongside a wide range of folk, rock, and bluegrass luminaries."
The band will play on Friday September 2 from 8.30pm.
Tickets are $40, book early to avoid disappointment, and dinner is available from 5.30pm.
