The Nook Sessions - Dan Cully + Kate Mahood
Description
Dan Cully + Kate Mahood - Live at The Nook Cooroy
Sun 25 Oct | 3pm | BYO | 13+
Two compelling Australian songwriters share the stage for a special double-bill performance, bringing together indie roots, folk, alt-country and Americana in The Nook’s intimate listening room.
Dan Cully is a Melbourne-based multi-instrumentalist whose music draws inspiration from vast landscapes, mountain streams and the mysterious forces that shape our world. Armed with guitar, harmonica, didgeridoo, stomp box and soaring vocals, his solo performances carry the power and energy of a full band.
Often likened to Xavier Rudd and John Butler, Dan has toured extensively throughout Australia, sharing stages with Deborah Conway, The Weeping Willows, The Pierce Brothers, 19 Twenty and Eskimo Joe. His debut album, All in Sweet Time, moves between intimate, earthy folk and expansive, atmospheric sounds while maintaining a deep connection to the natural world.
Kate Mahood has songwriting roots planted deep in the Australian red dirt. Blending folk, alt-country and Americana, she weaves evocative storytelling, stirring vocals and beautifully crafted guitar melodies into a sound that is both intimate and unmistakably her own.
Kate has shared the stage with Busby Marou, Harry Manx, The Whitlams and Alex Lloyd. Her song Little Finch was shortlisted for the 2025 Environmental Music Prize, while her latest single, Waves, offers a dreamy and ethereal first glimpse of her forthcoming album.
Together, Dan and Kate offer an evening of heartfelt songwriting, rich musicianship and music inspired by nature, human experience and the connections between us.
FAQs
- Will tickets be available at the door?
These events have historically sold out before the event date. Tickets are limited to a small intimate crowd. Its highly unlikely unless we have cancelations last minute.
- BYO?
Yes! We are not licensed to sell alcohol. So you are welcome to BYO
- BYO food?
No, the space is too small to accommodate BYO food. We have small bar snacks available for purchase, and we recommend eating beforehand. There’s a great Indian restaurant just downstairs, Tandoori Flames.
- Parking
Public parking is available in the Pearl Lane car park, a short walk from The Nook. We ask that patrons avoid using the Cooroy Village Shopping Centre car park so there’s enough space for the restaurants downstairs.
- What does 13+ mean?
Our 13+ shows are open to teenagers aged 13–17 when accompanied by a responsible adult. The Nook is not a licensed venue, however it is BYO, so alcohol may be consumed by adults. These events are primarily geared towards adult audiences, so some performances may include mature themes or language, but the focus is always on live music.
