Artists:

Headphones Jones (Narrm/Melbourne) - "Pack your suitcase for adventure! Funk explorers Headphones Jones serve up tasty grooves with a blend of Funk, Nigerian Afrobeat and Afro-Latin styles. With a reputation for high energy performances featuring both vocal and instrumental tunes, the nine-piece dance band invite you on a journey to move your feet and your heart. Watch out for colourful antics, big horns and driving rhythms. Dress loud, dance hard."

Bromham (Kaurna/Adelaide)- Bromham is a community of musicians whose passion for music, life and joyful silliness is tangible and infectious. Being named after their lead singer’s mother’s maiden name is fitting for a group who takes influences from all over the world to tell stories about those closest to them. These stories bring audiences on a journey that never fails to leave them feeling uplifted. This big family has become well loved on the Australian festival circuit, from their shows at Womadelaide and many of the nation’s biggest folk festivals. Come and find out why audiences are so drawn to this lovable bunch!

Shark & Fox (Canada/Australia) - Propelled by accordion pumping through the subs, twanging gourd banjo licks on a fretless children’s Stratocaster, vintage synths controlled by a violin, and an Argentinian bombo fashioned into a drum kit, “Shark & Fox” hide their toughest questions inside a pile of murder ballads, moving sideways through the traditional building blocks of music, in search of the shortcut to your heart. Shark & Fox consists of Canada’s Jaron Freeman-Fox on violin, 12-string viola d’amore, and fretless guitar, Australia’s Emily-Rose Sharkova on accordion and keyboards, and Rose Callaghan on the drums, with all three members lending their voices in a collective roar, or intricate harmony.

Jeunae Elita (Kabi Kabi/Sunshine Coast) - Prepare to be spellbound. Jeunae is no ordinary artist. The quality and depth of her vocals and musicianship is otherworldly and transcendent of magic and myth, of lore and of heart.

Day of Embers (Kabi Kabi/Sunshine Coast) -Born of love, myth and traditional folklore, Day of Embers is a duo of Celtic and global seafaring rhythms interlaced with age-old family tales of love, survival and justice. Combining the multi-instrumental talents of singer-songwriters, Welshman Daryl James, and Dawn, a bewitching vocalist of Canadian, Irish and Indian descent, DoE weaves spectacular harmonies with banjo, mandolin, slide guitar, piano and accordion.

Anya Anastasia (Kaurna/Adelaide) - A powerful blend of experimental folk and global music influences, Anya's lyrics ask questions about our society, conspiring to stir dissent and environmental action. Amidst the grind of modern industrial life, her songs transcribe wonders of the natural world. Intricate guitar work and intriguing vocals weave together to create beautifully crafted songs. Anya's song Losing Wild was a finalist in the 2023 Environmental Music Prize.
