Homespun songs from Australia . . .

As an Australian composer and singer, I make music that’s deeply engaged with, and inspired by, the , wonderful country that has always nourished and sustained my people. My music records and celebrates the everyday lived experience of my generation, my communities, and my ancestors, from one Australian woman’s perspective, over a lifetime. Enjoy!
