Whisky Tango at Bushpub Restaurant (2 October)
Whisky Tango is an extremely talented duo consisting of my brother Kurt Tiltman and his long haired friend Werner Olivier. They play a wide range of genres and even throw in some originals from time to time. There events always draw a crowed and are often accompanied by fellow artists from the valley. The new owners of the Bushpub are doing an excellent job of revitalizing the pub and are always kind and appreciative of the support that they get.
