Cookie has shared stages with many esteemed Australian artists. More often than not penning songs of keenly observed lost love and found habits, Cookie speaks honestly of longing, displacement, isolation, and the emotional debris resulting from these experiences. In full-band flight, she previews material from her upcoming album. Adelaide’s MAUVE opens the show mixing electronic textures with pure tones and space.

Lachlan Bryan

Over the past decade Lachlan Bryan has built a reputation as a captivating storyteller, whether solo or fronting Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes. His songs range from hard hitting social commentary to deeply personal musings, but each contains a unique turn of phrase, dark humour and an ever-present sense of romance. He’s toured with Steve Earle, John Hiatt and Shawn Colvin, performed at festivals all over the world and even picked up gongs in The Music Victoria Awards and The Golden Guitars. Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes’ new album, Some Girls (Quite) Like Country music, debuted at #12 on the ARIA country albums charts earlier this year and received rave reviews all over the world, especially in Europe, where Lachlan and the band have found a second home. 

 

Gretta Ziller

First impressions aren’t always right. If you’ve been foolish enough to nail down the sound of acclaimed songwriter Gretta Ziller, then prepare to have the rug pulled out from under you. Queen of Boomtown, her stunning debut record, defies categorisation and demands repeated listens.

Recorded at Woodstock Studios in Melbourne, Ziller’s sound may bear the hallmarks of classic Americana music but its essence is far more diverse. The Melbourne songstress’ roots span jazz, blues, rock, pop and classical, that eclectic musical upbringing is reflected in the varied tracks of this full-length album.

Porchlight Parade
(support artist)

Porchlight Parade are folk trio Kate Henderson, Tom Kalleske and Pearl Tassell. Born into their 3-piece form in 2016, the Adelaide-based act joined forces to bring to life ’Sidesleeper’, released in January 2017.

From funk-metal to pirate-rock to acoustic alt-folk, the three are no strangers to the local music scene, having played in most of the city’s major haunts over the years.

2. Luke Swinburne

Born and raised in the Adelaide Hills, 18 year old Luke Swinburne is just starting to kick off his music career as a solo artist.

Luke realised his passion for guitar at the young age of 12 and has never looked back, Luke has since acquired a larger, tasteful range of guitar skills, from smaller riffs’ to surprising guitar solo skills and he is just getting started.

Over the past 12 months Luke has worked on his song writing skills as well as making himself a multi-instrumentalist, and through trial and error has formed a unique songwriting capability.

His original song range can quickly show you though feelings and thoughts that are upbeat to life pondering, heartbreak, sadness and through the deeper stages of loss.

In this past year Luke has decided that music meant so much more to him than just a small hobby, it has since became he’s dream and passion to share with the world. Luke is only just beginning to start his career as he is now playing at venues throughout the Adelaide region and across the state.

He has recently returned to South Australia after recording his first EP in Melbourne, which will be released in the coming months.
