Local songwriter Crystal Robins brings to the stage her heartfelt folk and alt-country flavoured original songs. A recent graduate of The CMAA Academy of Country Music in Tamworth, Crystal has performed at festivals around Australia and is also a regular performer around local spots. Layering stunning vocals with intricate guitar playing, Crystal will share songs and stories from her debut full-length album ‘Moonflower’, joined by Aden Mackay on guitar and pedal steel.
Followed by a soulful set from Ursula Yovich, an award-winning actor, singer, playwright, and director. A proud Burarra/Serbian performer, she is one of Australia’s most respected storytellers. Her work spans 29 years through theatre, film, and television, with acclaimed roles in Barbara and the Camp Dogs, Top End Wedding, Top End Bub, Deadloch and major stage productions across leading Australian theatre companies.
