"In order to give our musos a much needed boost, ticketed gigs are going to be held throughout November at Charlie's Last Stand and the Welders Dog in Armidale."
Over three nights, live music lovers can settle in to some of the best talent regional NSW has to offer with the likes of Fergus James, Ben Leece and Goldheist.
James will peform at Charlie's Last Stand on Friday, November 13, and the following day The Welder's Dog will host live gigs by Ben Leece as well as Smith and Jones.
"These events will motivate visitors to come and enjoy all Armidale has to offer, encouraging them to get out and explore the other restaurants, cafes, bars, shops and attractions," Mr Marshall said.
"I urge people to grab their tickets and get along to support our artists and have a great night."
