Feeling all strung out? Life in a spin? Well then, let the dreamy music of George Washingmachine wash away the dust of everyday life.

A master showman whether playing toe-tapping jazz, soulful blues, or uplifting melodies, when it comes to knuckle-busting feats on a violin, George doesn’t play second fiddle to anyone! From Sydney, George Washingmachine is a captivating old school entertainer - he’s a violinist who sings, a blues guitarist, and a visual artist. In his quartet are guitarists Dave Kelbie of Dime Notes and Django a la Creole fame, and John Kelly from the Fleeting Paradise Orchestra, and bassist fellow Australian Mark Elton, a regular with the Scott Hamilton band.
