The Helium Detectives are all long term Neil Young fans who just can't get enough of him _x0014_ they are excited to present some of their favorite Neil Young songs at their debut Fringe appearance. The Helium Detectives will perform a range of Neil Young's more popular songs and some lesser well known ones. Being a four piece band, The Helium Detectives will present the essence of Neil _x0013_ his words, his guitar (it takes two of us to make one of him!) _x0013_ in their own style through vocals, guitars and driving percussion. Neil Young's musical and artistic output is massive, including about 55 albums according to some internet discography references. Selecting the songs for this show from such a massive catalogue was no easy feat, but The Helium Detectives have decided to perform many of Neil's popular songs such as Heart of Gold and Hey Hey My My and also throw in the odd gem such as Sample and Hold and On the Beach. The range of songs and musical styles will satisfy most long-time Neil Young devotees and newbies alike. So please join the Helium Detectives as they take a journey through the past and between the lines of age as they present a tribute to NEIL YOUNG.

About The Helium Detectives: Always out for a good time musically speaking, the band contains an interesting mix of performers: - Yvonne Goudie (vocals, harmonica) has been singing in the shower for most of her life and has performed in various _x001C_ garage bands_x001D_ over the years with her partner Simon Hall. This is the first foray into the wider public arena for both of them. - Simon Hall (lead guitar, banjo, vocals) has been playing acoustic and electric guitar for many years, quite often playing Neil's songs with Yvonne on lead vocals. He is looking forward to his first Fringe appearance. - Mark Gishen (guitar, vocals) is a long time guitarist and has performed in sellout Fringe shows since 2007. Mark has played guitar and performed vocals with a number of bands, and a variety of styles, for many years. - Sam Stearne (drums, vocals) is a highly experienced drummer and plays with a couple of bands in Adelaide, most notably the hugely popular FIRE! SANTA ROSA FIRE! Like the others, Sam is a big fan of Neil Young.
