Adrienne Lovelock – Real stories, real people, real songs

Adrienne Lovelock is a singer-songwriter well known on the Adelaide folk music scene. Her songwriting has a strong emphasis on narrative and character, often retelling the stories of people from our past in a fresh style that honours folk traditions. Her current projects include creating a body of songs about the history and heritage of Lobethal. One of these songs – One More Hill, the story of an enterprising lady from Lobethal’s early years – won the 2017 Judith Crossley Memorial Award at the Fleurieu Folk Festival. Accompanied by her partner, guitarist Peter Day, Adrienne will perform some of her songs, and talk about the stories behind them and how she approaches song-writing.
