Live music
12pm to 1.30pm – Mi-Kaisha
Growing up on the streets of her local music scene, the soundtrack of her childhood included soulful 90s tunes and island music of her father’s Koori Radio hip-hop show “Island Hopping.” She describes herself as a city girl through and through and represents a beautifully melted dichotomy of sweet and deadly. Her contagious R&B Soul, pop melodies and layerings of harmonies points towards the vibrant palette of sonics in her back pocket and her intuition to create with versatility.
1.30pm to 3pm – Jesse
Jesse is a star on the rise. Hailing from Wollongong, Jesse writes original music with a contemporary Indigenous focus. With deep respect for preceding First Nations artists and his cultural past, Jesse focuses on the future and shares the essence of his being through his heartfelt life stories, from dating and love to childhood reflections, futuristic fantasies, and understanding his place in culture. Not to be constrained by labels, Jesse's music has been described as soulful, Indie, Pop and Blues.
