Her warm stage presence invites the listener in, her intricate guitar work providing a vibrant backdrop. Brimming with heart, Lucy is a captivating performer. This will be an intimate solo set from Lucy.

Valley Road love to sing together, using their voices to draw out the emotion in a song in a way that goes straight to the heart. Longtime friends Bec & Marty have spent years sharing music around the kitchen table at Marty's sheep farm. Their love of folk in all its forms is reflected in their thoughtful songwriting, sparkling guitar lines and easeful vocal harmonies. The duo released their acclaimed debut album in 2023 after winning a Troubadour Foundation Award, and recently supported The Waifs on their 2025 Victorian tour.

Bushlarks is a collaboration between Lucy Wise and Valley Road. During kitchen table jams, Lucy, Bec and Marty discovered their shared love of traditional folk music in its many forms. They are drawn to songs that start conversations between the hearts of everyone listening, about what it means to be alive in the world. They play a mixture of traditional and original folk songs, blending three-part vocal harmonies with guitar, fiddle and mandolin.
