The big-haired, big-hearted legend JOHNNY BONES held it down with a super funky warm-up set at the Soul of Sydney Picnic Jam during Sydney Festival Village | Jan 2017. He served up an irresistible mix of ’90s Soul & R&B, a touch of love songs, and some Hip Hop goodness as we danced on the lush Hyde Park floor, with St Mary’s Cathedral as our stunning backdrop.

We really miss those open-air spaces! Back then, we hosted every Sunday, and it was magical to see friends, family, kids, and people of all ages come together and party in such a beautiful setting.
