After a year spent performing from the Kimberley to Kings Canyon, folk, roots and blues artist Jack Raymond returns to Noosa to celebrate the release of his new album, Mr Know It All.
A finalist in the Australian National Busking Championships and a familiar face on festival stages including Woodford Folk Festival, Gympie Muster, Wintermoon and Tamworth Country Music Festival, Jack has built a reputation for honest songwriting, captivating storytelling and performances that leave audiences feeling connected long after the final song.
Mr Know It All is Jack’s most personal work to date. Exploring family, relationships, self reflection and the stories that shape who we become, the album features recent singles Hollow Trees, Prisoner and Ships in the Night. These are songs born from real life, told with warmth, humour and a deep sense of place.
The evening will open with special performances from two outstanding local songwriters.
Daryl James is an award nominated multi instrumentalist whose music fuses soulful blues with the raw Celtic roots of his North Wales homeland. Armed with an array of stringed instruments, foot percussion and a gift for storytelling, his captivating live performances have earned him a reputation as one of the region’s most compelling roots artists.
Ryan Tracey brings a warm blend of folk, indie and rock, delivered through heartfelt songwriting and soulful performances. As both a songwriter and producer, Ryan’s music balances rich melodies with an honest, stripped back approach that connects deeply with audiences.
Following these special guest performances, Jack will take the stage to perform songs from Mr Know It All, joined throughout the evening by a number of special guest musicians who have shared in the journey of the album’s creation.
More than an album launch, this is a celebration of community, collaboration and the stories that connect us.
Michael & Joy are captivating storytellers, storyshowers and lovers of this wonderfully unpredictable thing called life. Between them are decades of stories — some hilarious, some heartbreaking, some extraordinary, and some so beautifully human they may feel strangely like your own. And now they have a dream. To weave some of their favourite stories into a show that might, in its own small way, help us THINK LOVE.
But first…
they need to rehearse. Or at least, that’s how it begins. Step inside what appears to be an intimate rehearsal where Michael & Joy are preparing for the show they dream of one day taking to the world’s great stages. There are lines to remember, ideas to explore and stories to practise. But these two have never been particularly good at staying on script. One story sparks another. A memory appears unexpectedly. Magic slips into the conversation. Sacred sounds fill the space. Laughter gives way to vulnerability, and the wonderfully different ways Michael & Joy see the world begin to reveal something deeper.
Because Michael & Joy don’t simply tell stories.They show them. They step inside them, play with them, question them and sometimes discover their meaning right there in the moment. And somewhere between love and loss, masculine and feminine, laughter and tears, Mind and Heart, something begins to shift. The rehearsal starts disappearing. The stories become the show. And perhaps, without quite realising it, your story has entered the room too. Because beneath all the laughter, magic and beautiful unpredictability is an exploration of something we all share: How do we navigate a life that rarely goes according to plan? How do we listen to the Mind without losing the Heart? How do we love through loss, remain open through uncertainty, keep dreaming after disappointment — and somehow find the courage to keep showing up for this extraordinary life? Michael & Joy aren’t coming to give you the answers. They’re coming to share the stories that helped them discover their own.
THINK LOVE – Rehearsing a Dream is a heartfelt and captivating two-hour theatrical experience woven through stories, magic, sacred sound, laughter, vulnerability and love. You may arrive expecting to watch two storytellers rehearsing a dream. You may leave wondering whether, in some quiet and unexpected way…you’ve just been rehearsing yours.
Rehearse the Dream.- Bring the Mind and Heart together.
THINK LOVE.
