KATE VIGO

Kate Vigo is making a name for herself in the Australian music scene. With a sound that sits astride eclectic pop and stylized 60s rock, Kate is joined on stage by her band and an amazing ensemble of musicians known as ‘The Underground Orchestra’. Kate has moulded her sound to embody an eclectic mix of pop rock to subtle acoustic refrains teamed with programmed loops, intricate melodies, trademark soulful voice and 60s girl band influence.

Kate is a talented and truly original songwriter who has been acclaimed and acknowledged as a recent winner at the 2010 Music Oz Awards for Best Video, finalist in the 2009 New Artists to Radio Competition and was also short listed in APRA’s Vanda and Young Songwriter of the Year Awards in 2009.

“A great record, full of vocal magic and seductive loops that are by turns playful, wistful and dark. It’s experimental pop that’s still fun, sitting somewhere between Billie Holiday and Zap Mama…self-penned wistful love-songs which are personal, but oddly universal…Eclectic, versatile, part pop, electronic and stylish ‘60s torch rock, all awesome.”
Beat Magazine

“Kate Vigo’s voice is soaring…her poignant portrayal stops you in your tracks.”
Inpress

“A little bit pop, and a whole lot entrancing.”
Herald Sun, HIT

THE FINISHING SCHOOL

The Finishing School's sound is a blend of cool, acoustic tones with sonorous melodies and harmonies, accompanied by one of the tightest rhythm sections going around today. As one of Adelaide's hardest working bands, The Finishing School have played regular shows at The Grace Emily, The Exeter, The Rhino Room, Riffs Music Lounge, Supermild, The Union Hotel and performed with Evermore, Abbie Cardwell, FRUIT and The Borderers.

JAYNE-ANNE POWER

Known for her powerhouse vocals, sophisticated song writing and funked-up soul, Jayne-Anne Power delivers a classic style with a modern edge. Backed by her five piece band, this ensemble combines gritty grooves and sexy stylings with Jayne-Anne's exquisite voice. Delivering her own brand of pop with an edgy infusion of jazz and soul, her original material is at once vintage and edgy, an unquestionable nod to the past while pushing the boundaries of now.

COOKIE BAKER

The warm melodies, cool wordsmithery and a sugar-velvet voice that Cookie pulls from thin air and wraps in her whimsical guitar ‘n’ piano licks create a potent faux-folk pop-cabaret sensation that [her] experiences and environments only serve to benefit. An effervescent yet relaxed and personable performer and an introspective songwriter, Cookie Baker has shared stages with Augie March, Little Birdy, Ben Lee, Kate Miller-Heidke, Old Man River and The Audreys.
