A Night Of Country Music In Home Hill

Not only have Lindsay Butler OAM and Shaza Leigh OWB been touring the nation for 30 years with their multi-artist roadshow but their record label, LBS Music, has also launched the careers of many of today’s crop of traditional country music stars.
Lindsay and Shaza have decided to celebrate their company’s 30th anniversary by hitting the road with a roster of LBS recording artists backed by an incredible six piece ‘Butler Showband’, coming to Home Hill in June.
The unassuming couple have quietly built a small country music empire over those past 30 years with recording studios, record labels with distribution arms.
Most recently, Shaza has built new foundational partnerships into marketing companies, radio stations and artist services to carry the LBS Music Group into the future.
Award winning session musicians in their own right, Lindsay and Shaza spearhead their band on lead and rhythm/bass guitar respectively.
Other musicians include long serving band member, the Queen of the Country Piano Peggy Gilchrist, young gun guitarist Anthony Baxter, multi-instrumentalist Rick Ferret playing Pedal Steel, Fiddle and Sax plus their son Lachlan Butler on Drums.
As the legendary guitarist Lindsay Butler commences his farewell to Australia, this may be one of the last opportunities to see this amazing Australian musician play.
This is a variety show for everyone and a concert not to be missed.
