Unicyclist, juggler, flaming trumpetist and roving performer available for festivals, corporate, council and private events, both indoors and outdoors.
Have you ever seen a flaming trumpetist? What about a rolling club jugglist? Flaming trumpets and one wheel club juggling you ask? That's an impossible task! Or is it? Presenting Blunderbuss Jones. He club throws, rolls and roves, and trumpet fire blows. Lighting up the space with his blazing horn, keeping you all in the festival deliciously warm!
Operating as usual
Back in the red! Absolutely loved performing at Prom Coast Festival last night. The parade was a highlight, with their magnificent owl and all the handmade lanterns. As usual, there's no time to take photos during the event, but here's a few of one particular poser gassing it out at the end.
Carnie Hopping it over to NZ with the @Ungus Ungus Ungus Ux3 Soundsystem for a whirlwind weekend tour.

Family fun times at Lakeside Alive 2019.
Lots of improvised antics on the unicycle and flaming trumpet, with electroswing beats pumping from the wheelie bin soundsystem (from my mates at Rubbish Sound).
Thank you Pop Culture Melton City and City of Melton.
Throw back to the wild willie wonderland that was Huon Valley Mid-Winter Festival The Blunderbuss Fire Band had a blast jamming with Warren Marshall on WILD Willie, the flamin' piano (thanks, of course to Bruce Trappes). Thanks again to the crew at Willie Smith's Apple Shed for looking after us so well, and Jeremy Button for putting together this great little edit.

Upgrade completed, just in time for the second big round of mid winter festivals, particularly Huon Valley Mid-Winter Festival which is cooold! Gas cylinders were freezing far too quickly last year, so I've more than doubled the volume of gas available at the solenoid which should halve the cooling rate. Backpack is pimped, pumped and punk now!

Earned some stripes, ready for action, performing the biggest gig of the year NYE 9pm til 11pm at Croydon Hotel, booked through CircaNICA.
Soundtrack is a little taste of some new electrofunk I've been working on. In fact, I'm hoping to debut the full track at Tanglewood Festival on the 1st at 2pm.
Make it safe and happy!

Big weekend on the road with the Armistice Living Tribute, performing in Colac, Beaufort and today in Bendigo, right next to the Soldiers Memorial, pictured. So much history and such an honour, with fantastic and encouraging feedback from veterans and school kids alike. Thank you again to the amazing brass bands we are working with, in each town we visit. This week we finish the tour in Geelong, Euroa and Benalla.

Snippety bits from my solo set at Bar Open last night supporting The Substance on their EP launch, with Dyzlexic. Fun filled night of cool synths, tight drums and big fat bass.
Thanks to the wonderful Ms Donna Sparx for shooting.
