Raised on a farm by the seaside in rural South Australia, 2020 SA Music Award-nominated (People’s Choice - Country) Cookie Baker's trademark sparkling vocals and the poetic grit of her cool wordsmithery paint a portrait of this pint-sized melodic force to be reckoned with. From force-feeding Christmas Day concerts to her family on the front verandah to recording with Tim Rogers (You Am I) and sharing stages with the likes of beloved Australian artists Augie March, Kate Miller-Heidke, Ben Lee, Mick Thomas (Weddings, Parties, Anything) and The Audreys, Cookie’s 2019 LP, ‘This Is Not A Love Song’, is the perfect introduction to her wide range of influences and the whip-smart character of her songwriting.

Ollie English (SA Music Awards People’s Choice - Blues & Roots Award Winner 2018, 2019 and 2020) is an enthralling young singer/songwriter raised in the Adelaide hills region of South Australia and is currently based in Adelaide. English's music is an electric combination of his prolific blues guitar upbringing, a contemporary folk and pop storytelling appreciation and writing sensibility, and the rock and soul presentation of that introspective songwriting driven by his deeply emotive and powerful vocals. English captivates his audience with the diversity of his sound as he moves from rock anthems with gritty guitar solos to heartfelt ballads humming with gospel-inspired vocal arrangements.

Echoing the sonic virtue of Nick Murphy FKA Chet Faker, Matt Corby, Gang of Youths & Bon Iver is 26 year old Adelaide artist, Zac Eichner. Eichner’s recent work consistently features a raw and powerful voice, strong harmonies and delicate melodies that hover above layers of beautiful production. His heartfelt, ambiguous lyrics and songs that grow and grow, are often accompanied by a strong live show with soaring vocals, beautiful horns & his incredibly talented band. Eichner has played shows with the likes of PNAU, Bootleg Rascal, Timberwolf, George Alice & Hollie Col.
