Event description


Cam McConville

Cam McConville is a Meanjin based pianist and singer-songwriter. Caught in the cracks of indie-folk, jazz and pop, his music explores their intersection with gentleness and sincerity. Acoustic landscapes, suburban lyricism and intimate arrangements leave audiences somewhere between light-hearted and wistful – Australiana translated to chamber instruments.

Cam’s lyrical touch and stripped vocals have garnered him work in eclectic contexts, including concerts with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, solo-piano residencies throughout QLD and various nationally-touring music theatre productions. After years of writing and performing, Cam debuts his character-driven originals at It's Still a Secret with the help of talented friends Kaite Chester, Sam Scully and Harry Ottley


Jo Davie

Graced with vulnerable yet powerful vocals and poignant lyricism, Jo Davie offers up genuine storytelling and sings with heartfelt simplicity, technical skill and impressive versatility. Winner of the 2024 Carol Lloyd Award, Jo graduated from the Queensland Conservatorium in 2017 with First Class Honours and the University Medal before bursting onto the Australian scene as runner-up 2018 Folk Alliance Young Artist of the Year. Jo has since won audiences and accolades across Australia and become a regular on the festival circuit, performing at Woodford Folk Festival (QLD), The National Folk Festival (ACT), Caloundra Music Festival (QLD) and many more.

In the last couple of years, Jo has taken her music to new heights, performing a sold-out solo show at the 2024 Sydney Festival, and supporting ARIA-winning artist Katie Noonan to sold-out audiences at QPAC Concert Hall Brisbane, Sydney Festival, Bleach Festival and Darwin Festival. In conjunction, Jo has gained recognition as lead vocalist of Cigány Weaver(nominated for 2 x 2023 National Live Music Awards) and as a long-term band member for her friend and award-winning artist Asha Jefferies. October 2023 marked the release of Jo’s first solo musical offering, a single entitled ‘Throw Me A Rope’ (recorded by Sam Cromack, Ball Park Music) representing a change in her artistic direction, leaning into a full band sound, wrangling drums, bass, and electric guitar into her delicately curated world. And of course, Jo is also completing her PhD investigating the female singer-songwriter’s use of music technology and self-production.
