A huge thank you to all the beautiful people who attended the Camelot Lounge Marrickville last Saturday 22 July for the Jesse Younan Tribute.

The show was absolutely phenomenal. We were treated to some fine performances of Jesse’s songs by some of Sydney’s most talented musicians and singers. Special thanks to my gorgeous wife Bec Guseli for doing such a brilliant job as our MC for the evening.

We were able to raise just over $1200 for the Leukaemia Foundation. Thank you for supporting such a worthy cause.

To our wonderful performers: Thank you all for donating your valuable time and energy to learning and delivering Jesse’s intricate masterpieces to us with such respect and love. We hope you enjoyed the experience as much as we enjoyed witnessing it.

To our audience: We could not hold these special evenings without the support of you the audience. We are very grateful to you for continuing to keep Jesse’s musical legacy alive and we sincerely hope you will return again same time next year.

Special thanks to the very talented Gary Dark for capturing these amazing images from the event. Thank you also to our good friend Alex Barry for filming the evening. We will be sharing some live moments from the gig in due course.
