Chewin' The Fat's Fundraiser @ Fairfield Amphitheatre

Hey friends, 

Ever wondered what it looks like to see a community shine together?

Now’s your chance! We're returning to the Fairfield Amp on Jan 18th and would love to see you there, solo or with ur crew ✧˖°.

It’s shaping up to be another very special get-together, the birds, the bees buzzing with ease, pillars of trees, and booking fees - (we jk 😝) 

a celebration of six unforgettable years with a cause that’s close to our hearts ~ Mental Health Awareness ~ Come for the beats, stay for the love & leave with a full heart 💛

In reverse order, our offerings consist of two very special community makers, both of which have been involved in Chewin’s past. Unlike previous visits, (❀ˆᴗˆ) Adriana & DJ Earl Grey (•́ᴗ•̀✿) will be closing out 2025’s edition together with a seamless fusion of worldly rhythms. 

Aroop Roy 👒(UK) - is a producer, musician, label head & friend, who joins the dots between electronic music and borderless organic sounds. From house, garage and techno to jazz, disco and globetrotting rhythms, we are very excited to reconnect with Aroop as he tours down under this summer. 

There will be a plethora of live renditions for your peruse: Don Glori ᯓ★🎸 (also hailing from the UK & off the back of his appearance at Meredith over the weekend) traverses live jazz, soul, funk, samba and beyond; The Nikodimos Orchestra 𝄞⨾𓍢ִ໋♬⋆.˚𝄢ᡣ𐭩 delivers electrifying sounds with a full ensemble to ease us into the day & wedged between these two maestros are the raw vocals and undeniable magic of RARA ZULU 🎙️ (an unmissably unique performance). 

Finally! After interstitialling for you at the Meredith Sup this weekend, O Honey⋆˚🐝˖°  joins forces with Elsie ❀ (a very close friend of the cause) to set the tone for what’s shaping up to be a fantastic day of love, light & loud music.
