Welcome

Based on the Far North Coast of New South Wales Australia, Thrillbilly Stomp was formed around 2005 with the intention of playing fun, uplifting music. Since that time we have gone through a host of permutations, beginning as a duo, then a trio and currently a five piece band. (We still do duo and trio gigs depending on the circumstances.)


The current line up is:
Bill Bradney (Old Man) - Guitar/Mandolin/ vocals
Liz Edwards ( Betty Belltower) - Accordion/Vocals
Adam Button ( Durtle) - Drums/Vocals
Nirvana Glassy ( Dead Eye) - Double Bass
and our latest addition all the way from Seattle USA-
Rebecca Hindmarsh - fiddle
Bushell Appleford also joins us at some gigs playing banjo and washboard and can be heard on our latest E.P.
The Thrillbilly Stomp sound is highly unique though it is heavily influence by the celtic, cajun and bluegrass traditions.
As well as playing pubs, clubs and festivals, etc, Thrillbilly Stomp have also become quite a popular bushdance band with their unique take on this old tradition.

Also included in the Resources and Links are some transcriptions of some Thrillbilly Stomp songs as well as some idea's for enriching your own playing.

"Thrillbilly Stomp had them stompin' and hollerin' "
Rob Saunders  
The Northern Rivers Echo Newspaper   (December 2011)
"Thrillbilly Stomp are the best bush dance band around and will have the whole family jigging and bouncing along in that fun and interactive way of the called bush dance."
Live Music Review - Woodford Folk Festival        (Review click Title  to follow url)
Rushing passed the Didgeridoo making workshop, buskers and grass-hoppers on stilts bewildering young children – to the 12-bar, who are offerring Guinness on tap and strange tasting cocktails prior to Thrillbilly Stomp. “Yeah we’re pretty old school” admits Mandolin player Bill Bradney before breaking into their own brand of thigh slapping, finger jerking country sounds. Enough to break out your inner choreographer, the number of stompers multiply as new friendships are formed knee-deep in relentless flying soil. Welcoming a guest washboard player to the stage, vocalist Liz Edwards apologises to their new compadre about the subsequent key changes. Skipping with limbs in the air through ‘The Dickhead Stole My Hoe’ and Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’, this Lismore 4-piece fire up The Blues And Roots Stage effortlessly.
