Kaliopi & The Blues Messengers return to The Espy!

Double Trouble Blues Sessions is thrilled to announce the Australian homecoming of Kaliopi & The Blues Messengers!

Following an incredible European chapter that included the European Blues Challenge, performances across Europe and Greece, and a very special ICMA Best Australasian Blues & Roots Song win, Kaliopi is back on Australian soil — and the Messengers are back together!

This will be their first Australian show since returning from Europe, and we're celebrating with a very special night at The Espy Basement.

And there's even more to celebrate…
