Holy moly, are we pumped to have this shinning star, Georgia Fields playing a special show at Simba Sessions this Oct 16!

Among other things, Georgia is an incredible loop artist layering vocal technique and Music dexterity in layers of rainbow sparkle for the ears. I’ve heard rumours of a strip down Piano set but who knows what she will bring to Kyneton this October?!
Whatever she brings you can bet it’s gonna be fabulous and you can also bet that you’ll be sad if you miss it.

She will be playing alongside the modern folk of Megan Kennedy and spokenword genius Tony Blaine - if you were at the last Simba, you know what I’m talking about!

Hey beautiful people!

Thank you for such a magical evening on Friday night – if you were there you know that it was a pretty exceptional evening!

From all your contributions we were able to raise $700 for Nepal, enough money to buy a microphone or 2 to replace the ones that are falling apart and still give us a little bit of a cash reserve for this not for profit community event.

It means such a lot to us to have your support and the fundraising allows us to lean into 2027 without a question mark.

 Also, a massive  shout out to our incredible volunteers, both sporadic and regular, that really helped this night function. It’s a lot of work and we couldn’t do it without you!

And of course, unending thanks to our artists, Kavisha Mazzella, Timothy Coghill and his incredible ensemble, Tony Blaine and Will Small, for their beautiful art and creativity that drives-Home and holds so gently the themes we explore.
