The acoustic collective ONLY SOUTHERN specialises in the presentation of Louisiana-style Southern old-time string band and Cajun music. Based in Melbourne, the group interprets a broad repertoire that includes traditional blues, country, gospel, rockabilly, swamp pop and rock 'n' roll. Their instrumentation utilizes a traditional arrangement of five-string banjo, old-time fiddle, mandolin, guitar and Cajun accordion. By focusing on these distinct regional American styles, the musicians deliver a structured historical retrospective that emphasizes acoustic accuracy and string-band frameworks.

The ensemble operates with flexible configurations ranging from a solo performer up to a full sextet to accommodate varied event parameters. For live bookings, the group offers versatile performance options including acoustic roaming sets, fully unamplified configurations or amplified main-stage presentations. The musicians supply a small PA system and require standard access to power alongside a dedicated dressing room. The group coordinates their programming to suit parties, festivals, main stage events, activations, weddings, garden parties and local government functions.
