A little more about Sgt. Hulka....
As a young lass, Sgt. Hulka (aka Kirsty Hulka) studied classical piano for a long time. Her piano teacher called her a thumper because she 'thumped' every song. Fast forward to her teenage years and her dad started taking her to local blues shows in Fremantle. She was in awe! Halfway through studying classical piano at UWA, she realised she wasn't any good at Western Art Music and taught herself how to play blues. She played in many original bands around Perth and after a while decided to go out on her own as Sgt. Hulka - a nickname that was given to her in high school by a maths teacher from the 1980's Stripes.
Her band grew and she continues to push the boundaries of genre and style. Sgt. Hulka's songwriting flows in the realms of soul and blues, yet her hooks and melodies are reflective of the perfect pop earworm.
Branded with sparkles and charisma, Sgt. Hulka and her band deliver an exceptional performance. Don't miss her DEBUT at the Ellington and wish her safe travels as she heads North the next day!
