Tin Town is the new collaboration between seasoned Australian artists Courtney Robb and Snooks La Vie. As a wife-and-husband duo, they deliver grounded, folk-country melodies and unfiltered storytelling. Their songs feel vulnerable but intentional – the kind of music that doesn’t need to raise its voice to be heard. Robb’s vocals are arresting in their honesty, textured and expressive, carrying the weight of the lyrics without overselling them. La Vie’s harmonica is a vital thread in the Tin Town sound - melancholic one minute, cutting the next - adding colour and character in all the right places. It gives their songs a sense of movement and mood that lingers long after the final note. Tin Town’s debut album "Down in the Dirt" is out now and features eleven original tracks, recorded with producer Ryan Martin John of Cactus Cactus Sound. Think folk, country, and blues in equal measure - best heard with a glass of red in hand and nowhere to be.

Riley Catherall is a Singer-Songwriter based in Melbourne who has built a credible status as one of the country’s most promising songwriters through his poetic sincerity and alluring live shows. "The Light, The Beautiful Liar" is Riley Catherall's second full-length record released in mid 2024. Singles "Bark At The Moon" and "Coming Down, Coming Over" flagship this collection of songs about the kind of love that desperately tries to endure the unwelcoming stark light of the morning. Sold out shows across the UK and Scandinavia, as well as appearances at prestigious festivals such as Woodford, Queenscliff and Maverick (UK) provided those who attended an insight into the workings of a prolific songwriter in the sophomore stage of his career.
