The Discovery Coast’s very own Che Remedy will be bringing their duo magic back to the Agnes Blues, Roots & Rock Festival in February 2026, making beautiful music together on the intimate, chill-vibe Discovery Stage.
Formerly from South Australia, Wendy Matthews and Mark Dobson established Che Remedy in 2019 to showcase their vocal, guitar and keyboard talents. Now residents of Agnes Water, they can’t wait to perform for the second time in their home neighbourhood, after making their debut at the festival in 2024.
Che Remedy loosely translated means ‘our friends are our medicine.’ Wendy and Mark’s story-telling through music brings them great joy and flows from their life experiences, allowing expression and sharing of emotions through the medium of music.
Che Remedy’s music has an eclectic flair and its own special flavour, which they have enjoyed gigging at a variety of Agnes Water-Discovery Coast venues, events and Festivals.
Don’t miss the magic of Che Remedy bringing all the good vibes to the #AgnesBluesFest Discovery Stage from 2.45 to 3.00pm Sunday 22 February 2026. Their shared passion and beautiful music will be the perfect finale to an epic 3 days in paradise.
Designed to complement the Marquee Stage program within the vibrant Festival precinct at the 1770 SES Grounds and about to celebrate its sixth year, the Discovery Stage encompasses the blues, roots and rock genres within a relaxed, intimate atmosphere; getting up close and personal and showcasing original music performed by an eclectic range of entertaining regional artists from Central Queensland and beyond.
