The MoonShip, Rosa Mack & Amy John Roberts

‘Lighten Up My Mood’ single/vinyl launch party at The Citadel, Murwillumbah

Echoing the poetic sincerity of song-writing greats of the 60’s folk revival, Murwillumbah songstress Shani Forrester has a growing reputation for captivating audiences with her intimate, soulful performances.

She is joined in The MoonShip by Damiano Messia on electric guitar, Jack Merriman on drums and fellow local Glenn ‘Bloomfield’ on bass. Together they will be cooking up a tasty mix of soulful, cinematic, bluesy, folk-country pop - blurring boundaries and evoking phantom memories of yesteryear, with a sound somehow both brand new and imbued with notes of nostalgia.

Supported by Amy John Roberts (solo) and Rosa Mack (duo), The MoonShip celebrate the release of their latest single ‘Lighten Up My Mood’. Available for streaming on 11/11, the track has also been immortalised on vinyl, boasting the exquisite artwork of Irene Messia. There will be limited copies available for purchase on the night.

Amy John Roberts is a South East Queensland artist dedicated to pulling on heartstrings. Her passion for writing relatable and evocative lyrics are an insight into Roberts' dedication to learning, growth and introspection. Combining the ambience of soft rock with the passion and power of great ballads, Amy’s music might just leave you feeling like she knows you better than you know yourself.

"Engaging, unapologetic, ferociously talented and painfully vulnerable, Rosa Mack gives her audience more than one reason to listen.” Brisbane powerhouse vocalist Rosa Mack boasts an unforgettable performance, joined by James Pryce-Davies on guitar. Melting soulful tones of the 60s & 70s blues era, their passionate delivery is underpinned by the influence of Aretha Franklin, Amy Winehouse and Nina Simone.
