Event manager, Ross Johnson from Runner's Tribe said it is a pleasure to help bring entertainers of such calibre to the event for the local community and visitors to enjoy.
"The Golden Gift concert has had some outstanding acts over the years and Pete Murray sits with the very best of them,"Johnson said.
"To have one of the countries most loved singer songwriters is a real treat not only for the locals but for the multitude of visitors who join us over the WA long weekend.”
"The event is geared to give back to the hard working local community and to have them share in something special like witnessing Olympic athletes and world class musicians perform in their back yard."
