The real deal — a world-class guitarist, soul-stirring vocalist, and captivating songwriter whose music cuts straight to the heart. Ray’s guitar style pays tribute to blues greats while forging a sound unmistakably his own: raw, expressive, and electrifying. It's no wonder Ray has become a beloved and legendary figure on the Australian blues scene.

Ray’s music resonates with honesty, depth, and a profound understanding of the blues tradition.

His sound is steeped in over 30 years of experience performing both nationally and internationally, from local blues haunts to stages in the deep South of the USA.

Ray Beadle doesn't just play the blues — he lives it.

We're excited to present the incredible Ray Beadle for our next Starfish Concert.

Joining Ray will be Clayton Doley on organ and piano, a star in his own right, and of course the Starfish Rhythm section of Hamish Stuart and Jonathan Zwartz.

Doors at 6pm with music from 7pm.

The Starfish Kitchen will be open.

Blues virtuoso star Ray Beadle performs his unique style of Blues with Clayton Doley, Jonathan Zwartz and Hamish Stuart

Nashville is the legendary home of great music..

So what happens when you put a Nashville based New Zealander singer/songwriter and a Nashville based Australian guitarist/songwriter/producer together?

You get the amazing combination of Jackie Bristow and Mark Punch!

These guys have toured with the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Boz Scaggs and Chris Isaak, and their songs have featured on hit TV shows including Euphoria and The Brokenwood Mysteries.

Following on from their highly successful very recent European and NZ tour, they will be in Sydney to play one show for us at the Starfish club on Monday April 13th.

Blending soulful Americana, folk and roots music with stunning musicianship and heart, Jackie’s rich, emotive vocals and Mark’s world-class guitar work have earned international acclaim.

Ilan Kidron headlined at the sold out Starfish Club shows with the high-energy and hypnotic chaos of the 'Heads Talking ' band.

Now we have the same magnetic performer with something a little different, and it's a real treat.

A new solo album by Ilan, with a different intention shaping a new body of work, performed live at Starfish.

'SWIMMER' is an album born from love, loss and the long journey back to the surface. The songs flow like water through different languages and genres, sometimes surging, sometimes barely rippling, carrying stories of memory, grief and fragile hope.'

To bring these songs alive for you, Ilan has assembled an incredible cast of players with strings and woodwinds in the mix.

The musicians are;

Ilan Kidron vocals and acoustic guitar

Eddie Bronson saxophone and accordion

Lara Goodridge violin and vocals

Susie Bishop violin and vocals

Ilan releases new album! Crack band of heavyweights plus string section

2026 is our 30th anniversary year! Yes-the Starfish Club has been going that long. From humble beginnings at the Bondi Surf Life Saving Club HQ under the auspices of the caretaker and mad jazz lover Rick Ireland through to the Clovelly Bowling Club, where we have been for more than 20 years. We aim to continue bringing you great live music each month.

We begin on January 5th with an old friend and killer musician Dave Brewer.

Not only is Dave one of our most acclaimed Blues guitarists, he is also someone we have known longer than the Starfish Club. He's a quiet legend, He just sounds so good and he makes those he play with sound good too. We are always thrilled to have him perform.

For over three decades Dave has been the backbone for many of Australia’s most seminal acts including The Dynamic Hepnotics, The Elks, The Mighty Reapers and the catholics.

Since returning from Sydney to hometown Perth 20 years ago, he has been regularly working with Lucky Oceans, Natalie Gillespie along with his own band, the Deluxe Combo.

It's a rare treat when he is back in Sydney to have him in the club.

This night will feature some of Dave's Original material from his three albums, including songs from his latest release "Long Road Back Home".

Joining him will be the absolutely incredible - say no more - Clayton Doley on Hammond organ, and naturally the Starfish Rhythm Section of Hamish Stuart on drums and Jonathan Zwartz on double bass.

Come along and start the year with some fine music
