Introducing the headline acts: Kutcha Edwards and Candice Lorrae!
Uncle Kutcha Edwards - a Mutti Mutti, Yort Yorta, Nari Nari songman - has been prolifically combining songwriting and activism since he began making music in the 90’s. As one of Australia’s most respected Indigenous singer/songwriters, Kutcha’s music and community work has earned him iconic status. What Kutcha shares through his songs and stories and with the people he encounters is an often unheard truth, a heartfelt connection and a sense of belonging. Kutcha’s most recent release is his extraordinary album ‘Circling Time’. This album is profound and it is a timely reminder of the incredible depth and talent of one of the most inspiring voices within the country.
Garramilla born, Candice Lorrae is an award-winning Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artist and electronic music producer with connections to Jawoyn Country and the Torres Straits through her Bonson and Villaflor families. She brings 25 years of music industry experience and has built a career that moves seamlessly between artist, producer and mentor. Candice is now preparing to release her debut solo album Paperbark & Lilies, a nostalgic reflection of what Candice’s life was before she moved away from home, including family story, memory, longing and connection to Country.
