Salty Dog duo - Steve Plater and Marion Turner - are apparently booked to play the Phuket Blues Festival February 2008 so here’s a heads-up who they are. (Any friend of Geoff Achison is a friend of ours!)

The duo bringing the Mississippi blues tradition to life around Australia and overseas with cigar box guitars, dirty distortion and thousands of kilometres per year - that’s the life of Salty Dog, a professional music couple combining Steve’s talents on the guitar and Marion’s as a singer and player of the harmonica, washboard and washtub bass.

Salty Dog are known Australia-wide in blues circles as a band who create a party atmosphere on stage - their performances have brought the likes of Phil Manning, Geoff Achison, Jeff Lang and Broderick Smith onstage to join them in some old-fashioned boogie-chillun.
