About the artists
5pm: Kho
Kho plays acoustic guitar in masterful, unique ways. Combined with and identifiable voice Kho sings of science fiction, love and the bushland from where he originates. Stripped bare and comfortable, Kho plays between the lines, giving a voice to the unsaid and lending an ear to the unheard, familiar but askew, Kho is not to be missed.
6:45pm: Michelle Murrall
Michelle Murrell is an alt-country singer-songwriter from the NSW Central Coast. Her music, a blend of country, folk, and 90s grunge, is both familiar and refreshingly unique. Michelle’s distinctive vocal style and her husband James’ rhythmic percussion create an immersive listening experience. With her debut album 'Flannel Flowers' set for release in 2025, produced by Bill Chambers, she continues to push genre boundaries. Her singles have already gained attention and airplay, signalling her rise in the music scene. Michelle’s relaxed nature and love for her craft invite listeners on an authentic musical journey.
