From 2013 to 2017, Nancy completed a musical apprenticeship under the mentorship of renowned Song Man, Uncle Archie Roach. This experience has spurred her on to become a powerful presence both on stage, and off. 

Recognising her exceptional contributions to the music industry, Nancy Bates has been honoured as an Ambassador for the Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA). 

Through the ‘Songs Inside’ film project, Nancy teaches ukulele and songwriting to women in prison, giving them voice, and freedom of expression within a colonial punishment system.

Vetter og villskap

Deeply engaged with new traditions and old innovations, the music of Vetter og villskap (‘Spirits and wildness’) comprises genre-blending and -bending conversations between Scandinavian Folk, Americana and a touch of Eastern influences. This is multicultural storytelling with and without words, from (Nordic) noir to joie de vivre.

Both acts are performing under a 'Pay-what-you-want' understanding.  Let your friends know and be generous to those earning a living in the arts.
