Dean & Carruthers played their last ever gig in the Northern suburbs on Friday August 25, 2023

Terry Dean & Gary Carruthers played to a fully booked out house with music ranging from country to folk to Irish to good old rock ‘n’ roll. A Great night indeed.

Our Christmas Breakup On Friday December 23, 2022 with The Dalton Gang, plus Dave Moore and special guests in order of appearance:
Michelle Gardiner, Keith Green, Terry Dean, Norm Price, The Tim Farren Band and Cee Jay Jones.

A capacity crowd came along to be a part of our Christmas Breakup Party and most agreed it was the best show in recent memory. A fantastic array of guest artists backed by the popular Dalton Gang with pedal steel maestro Dave Moore as icing on the proverbial cake.
