Cyrus, often writing with Australian singer-songwriter PJ Harding, has a way of storytelling that captures the grit and highs and lows of real life the way Kris Kristofferson does on the classic “Sunday Morning Comin’ Down,” or John Mellencamp and Lucinda Williams do.

It is run by his widow, Lucinda Tait, who says it "means everything" to her to keep his memory alive in the place he "absolutely loved".

"Oh, he'd love it. I don't think he'd leave the campfire," Lucinda said.

Strummerville is one of the festival's smaller and more intimate stages, which Lucinda says is all about "meeting people, sharing opinions, sharing musical genres and ideas".

That cruise drew an eclectic mix of performers such as Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams and Dave Alvin, who share musical DNA with many of the artists on the Underground Garage Cruise and vice versa.
