Skyscraper Stan and Oskar Herbig are bringing their stripped-back duo show to Bellingen on Saturday August 22nd. Longtime collaborators and even longer-time cousins, Skyscraper Stan and Oskar Herbig have spent the better part of 15 years writing, recording and touring together.

Antipodean songwriter Skyscraper Stan is a true believer in the power of words. One sentence, massaged just the right way, can be an entire story in and of itself. Across a career spanning the better part of a decade, two studio albums and countless live performances, he has established himself as one of the most thrilling lyricists working in Australia today. Endless months on the road, “singing for his chips”, observing the lives of people in town and country and putting it all down on paper has sharpened Stan’s songwriting to a fine point. 

Let me be frank with you, this is not a show to be missed

To warm up the night, local legend Freedom Summers will be sharing some songs and stories.

The multi-disciplined artist Freedom Summers is a songwriter, guitarist and fine artist. When you hear her sing and strum her guitar, a feeling of calm enters the room.

There is something familiar and simple which is the thread in both her music and art.Freedom’s creativity is expressed in gentleness and balance, diving deep into the soul.
