Bourbon-Soaked Blues Live, Juke Joint comes to Proserpine Golf Club

Describing their sound as ‘bourbon-soaked blues’, it is not hard to see the appeal of Juke Joint’s music.

With an eclectic sound and energetic stage presence, Juke Joint performs with music that hits right on a barmy Wednesday Autumn afternoon.

Juke Joint will be on stage 6:30pm, Wednesday April 26, at the Proserpine Golf Club, starting the first leg of their North Queensland Tour.

Darren Griffis leads the charge, on lead guitar and vocals, with Gary Schieve on drums, Roy Bentham on guitar, banjo and slide guitar, and Gary Graham on bass and the harmonica.

This rag-tag range of instruments lends itself to a Southern American blues inspiration, with Gary Graham often playing the bass and harmonica at the same time.

Headlining the show will be their most recent release, Swivel Neck Boy, plus other original music, and everything from blues to classical rock and funk.

The Club looks forward to promoting more events in the future, as well as promoting their facilities for private functions. Affordable and inviting function facilities, with perfect photo opportunity locations on the beautiful Golf course.

Juke Joint will be performing at the Clubhouse courtyard, overlooking the course in the cool twilight of the evening.

Juke Joint is open for all ages, with tickets only $10, available at the door, at Whitsunday Computers and Stationery and online at Try booking.  A curtesy bus is available, ring 049 834 0848 to organise pick up.
