We wanted to let you know about a couple of concerts we're presenting THIS OCTOBER! Just so you can keep a good long finish taste going after such a gorgeous Mullum Roots Festival.

And what better way to kick off than to present Singing Roadshow a Rolling Caravan of Story and Song - with Mama Kin Spender and Emily Lubitz On October 3rd in the Civic Hall in Mullumbimby!

The SINGING ROADSHOW, an extension of the Mama Kin Spender sold out annual Choir Camps. This traveling, mini festival is an all-in, sing along, song and story-telling bonanza.

With country darling and #1 chart-topper emily_lubitz the show features a rare reprisal of Danielle Caruana (Mama Kin) & Emily’s beloved 2012 Folk/Americana collaboration, We Two Thieves.

This 3 band headline bill is a sweet mix of performances interspersed with group singing where everyone becomes the choir. Join us as we teach easy to learn songs and harmonies and together we’ll create one big, beautiful communitas. A little bit of chaos, some collective joy and a whole lot of love.
Come join this rolling caravan of songs

There is so much to share after a weekend of amazing music and stories, but I’ll start with this one because it’s my favourite.

This fella was busking old time banjo songs on the street in between the venues and I stopped and watched and listened to him and then asked him if he’d ever written any songs. He said that he didn’t because he thought they always sounded weird whenever he attempted to. Of course, as a song writer, I told him they always sounded weird when they first come out and you just have to push through…

Anyway, the next morning he approached me telling me that he’d written his very first song that night and asked if he could play it for me. So he sat down right there and then and played me this song. I didn’t weep or anything (not)!

I love this story because it’s EXACTLY why I created this music festival. To promote and encourage original music. His name is Martin Thornton, he lives locally and you’ll be seeing more of him…if I have it my way!
