April May is an up and coming 5-piece folk band from Naarm who draw influence from early legends like Neil Young, Townes Van Zandt and Bob Dylan while also seeking inspiration from Big Thief, Alex G and ambient works. They are the idea of teaching yourself how to sing and singing with your whole chest while not knowing a thing about it. They are the feeling of playing music for many years and still not knowing basic music knowledge. Walking out of an April May show can cause some confusion, as you may be in the suburbs of Fitzroy, but your brain is telling you it’s Laurel Canyon. Let’s see if their mystery works on you.
Lucy Harrington is a singer/songwriter living and writing on Wurundjeri land. Harnessing a sound that lies somewhere between indie and folk with pop sensibilities, her honest and unflinching storytelling is steeped in raw emotion and fresh perspective. Lucy navigates identity, grief, womanhood and heartbreak with a wit and wisdom fostered by the likes of Angel Olsen, Julia Jacklin and Adrianne Lenker. Her sticky melodies will have you moving your feet, and stay with you long after you finish crying.
Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
