With special guests 50th Parallel. With a second summer of festival performances under their belt – this time travelling around in a 1986 camper van – Fiftieth Parallel again hit the studio recording their new CD ‘Open Sky’. Playing almost entirely original material, Fiftieth Parallel have been forming their own unique style of progressive acoustic music: drawing inspiration from artists such as John Butler and the late Michael Hedges, infusing it with the contagious West Coast vibe. Despite being only a duo — Phil Marchand (acoustic guitar), Jonathan Hinds (acoustic guitar and percussion) — Fiftieth Parallel have made a name for themselves with their big natural sound.
