The Lansdowne Country Music had another successful day on Sunday with 11 artists plus the band performing.

Numbers were down with the change of date still coinciding with another smaller show and some singers being unwell.

It was great to see a new young talent Nathanial Worth performing and proving to be a hit with the audience.

A decision has been made to change the name of their day from Lansdowne Country Music to Lansdowne Open Music. This will hopefully encourage other genre of music to have a go and support the day.

The next show will be on Sunday, September 25 following the club's annual general meeting.
