The kings of Australian Cosmic, the mighty Lost Ragas are Melbourne’s own psychedelic supergroup. Born from backstage jam sessions, co-writes and an obsession with great songs and sounds, the band are a combination of voices, songs, vision and exceptional skill. Each member of the band offers a wealth of experience, and a bend towards the song’s best interest.

Melding soul, country, blues, rock and psychedelia, the band create a live experience that is renowned in Melbourne’s music community. After the departure of founding member, Simon Burke, Lost Ragas have welcomed their newest member Haydn Meggitt to the fold.

“The quartet truly embodies the phrase ‘cosmic country’, serving up a sound that mixes classic country, light psychedelia, ‘70s singer/songwriter and rock’n’roll. It’s like Sturgill Simpson and Beck jamming with the ghost of Harry Nilsson as they effortlessly meld clever songwriting with exceptional playing that always conveys just the right feel. Lost Ragas have created an album of timeless quality, full of dark and graceful beauty.” Chris Familton (The Music, Post To Wire) Phantom Ride – 2014 ABC Radio National Album of Week – Daily Planet Transatlantic Highway – 2015 PBS 5 Feet High And Rising Top Albums of 2015 Americana Australia Top 5 Albums of 2015 Post To Wire Top Albums of 2015 Triple R Banana Lounge Broadcasting Narnie Award 2015 Feature album on Radio National Daily Planet Lost Ragas have shared a bill with Felice Brothers, Tex Perkins, Blackeyed Susans, Ben Ottewell, Jeff Lang and appeared at Semaphore Music Festival, Dashville Skyline, Riverboats Music Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival, Out On The Weekend and Wave Rock Weekender.

Country-folk-alt-rock band Mick Daley’s Corporate Raiders play George Lane. Reared on a steady diet of Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Townes Van Zandt and Nick Cave, Mick Daley’s songs bear their lyrical and musical hallmarks, by turns tender and savage.

Touring from his home state of NSW, Mick plays alongside his four piece band.
