Henry Fenton (US/NSW) + Tara Coates

Gráinne Hunt with Jules Stewart (IRL/US) + Great Aunt (NSW)

A double header with Australia’s own Great Aunt and Irish singer Songwriter Gráinne Hunt with Jules Stewart. 

 Irish singer-songwriter Gráinne Hunt and San Diego drummer/vocalist Jules Stewart form a bi-continental queer folk duo known for soaring harmonies, raw emotion, and undeniable onstage chemistry.

Hunt’s richly expressive voice and deeply personal songwriting pair seamlessly with Stewart’s dynamic precision and musical sensitivity.

Compared to the Indigo Girls and Brandi Carlile, their sound blends nostalgia with fresh, contemporary folk energy. Together, they’ve toured internationally, premiered their new show Queer Arrivals, and won praise for performances that are intimate, powerful, and connective. Their live sets leave audiences feeling seen, uplifted, and profoundly moved.

Gráinne's tour is supported by Culture Ireland.

Great Aunt is an award-winning Australian folk duo known for their soaring harmonies, unique instrumentation, and heart-felt live performances.

Winners of the 2024 Folk Alliance Australia Duo of the Year, Megan Bird and Chelsea Allen blend folk, country and roots music with influences from their backgrounds in punk, jazz, soul, and rock to create a sound that is at once familiar and entirely their own.

With four U.S. tours under their belt and a debut full-length album, It’s All Downhill From Here, due in early 2026, the duo will return to North America for festival and concert appearances in 2026. Their music is equal parts joyful and vulnerable, and delivered with warmth, wit, and soul.

Jacob Jake & The Skeleton Crew + Mo O'Farrell

Who is this Jacob Jake? Well we don’t really know, and He’s not really sure either…. Some kind of cocktail of calypso, bluesy, folk, rag, swing “n” storytelling, one thing we are sure of is that he’s got that 1930s 78s shellac sound…

Jacob Jake and the skeleton crew will be preforming songs from his “Jamook Jangles” album, these "Jamook Jangles” are inspired by the travellers, gypsies, vagabonds, diesel mechanics and fishermen drifting in and out of the hotel Jake works at day after day after day. Jake sees them all, leisurely distilling that unwashed parade into beefy island.

Jack Carty (NSW) + Loren Kate

Prolific Australian songwriter Jack Carty has spent the last 15 years carving out a reputation as one of the country’s most respected independent voices — with six acclaimed albums, three EPs, a #1 independent release, collaborations with the likes of Josh Pyke, Dan Wilson (Semisonic) and Katie Noonan, and tours across Australia, Europe, North America and beyond.

 Now, in 2025, Carty returns with his 7th studio album In The Blue of The Day — a powerful, heartfelt collection that blends candid storytelling with sharp social observations and moments of tender intimacy.

 Before the album’s release, Carty will spend September to November touring theatres nationally with Katie Noonan, before embarking on his own headline run, bringing In The Blue of The Day to Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Perth, Adelaide and Bellingen.
