Stereo Stories’ final show for 2016 was the closing event of the Word For Word Festival at the Geelong Library & Heritage Centre on Sunday 20 November. The one hour concert included a short tribute to Leonard Cohen, and the debut on the Stereo Stories stage of New Zealand writer Maria Majsa. Piano accordionist Salvatore Romita welcomed the audience as it arrived, while the full band finished the show with a gorgeous rendition of Died Pretty’s Everybody Moves.

Many thanks to writers, musicians, photographers, Word For Word, Geelong Library and PRD Music. Our first show for 2017 will be in Wangaratta on February 18. Details soon.
