Madam Nightingale and Friends Unplugged

An intimate evening of acoustic works showcasing Melbourne's upcoming female songwriters at @trainscendence
Synth/Dance-pop artist and award-nominated fringe festival circuit regular Madam Nightingale is delighted to present this intimate show at Melbourne Fringe 2026. Spend an evening listening to acoustic trio* & quintet folk-rock arrangements of a selection of Madam Nightingale’s works, interspersed with works by some special guests: upcoming female songwriters that have inspired Madam Nightingale from her local Naarm music community. Hear how each song was written, why each special guest has been a unique inspiration, and be amazed and entertained by the variety and depth of talents from our local female musicians. A night not to be missed for fans of thoughtful sonic arrangements, progressive folk, and those keen to understand the creative process of singer-songwriters. Featuring Madam Nightingale, Jo Maloney/Dragnfly Industri, Viki Mealings/Brittle Sun & Marcela Music, *with backing band: Dan Moloney Percussion, Emiliano Treleani Bass, David O'Toole Guitar
