After ten years of writing, rehearsing, creating, and performing together, it is time for The Loveys to say farewell.In 2025, The Mighty Loveys embark on our final journey – a glam cabaret/folk show which features the best of The Loveys over ten years.
Join The Loveys as we mark ten glorious years of music-making, mischief, and memories.
This is your last chance to experience the magic – don’t miss it!
The Loveys – Jennifer Parenteau, Janet Swain, Pamelah Freeman and Belinda Eadsforth from the Northern Rivers NSW – present their final tour in 2025, and are coming to the fabulous Smith’s Alternative in Canberra on Thursday 13th February at 7pm – just in time for Valentine’s Day!
This show will be hilarious, and hip, with the added admission that aging is not for the faint hearted.
We are quite helpful at offering advice – whether it is general life skills, handy tips, survival techniques, health and beauty advice, fashion insights – all tucked inside great songs and harmonies, musicianship, style and a huge dose of humour.
Starting their career on the streets of Mullumbimby in 2014, busking in front of the local supermarket and at local farmer’s markets, they have built a loyal following across the region and further afield. The award-winning group has played at most of the major folk festivals in Australia, including Woodford, Bello Winter Music Festival, Nanga and Nannup in WA Blue Mountains Folk Festival as well as their famous guerrilla pop up shows at Mullum Music festival.
Great musicians, songwriters and performers, The Loveys demand to be heard and seen as they create a music genre that is both new and as old as time - heroic women, rocking out and telling it like it is.
‘A night with the Loveys is to lose yourself in the laughter and joy of their uplifting music.’
Packed full of original songs and wry stories that women and men understand, and care about - the show explores the very stuff of everyday life - from divorce, dementia, septuagenarian sex to the ordinary and courageous business of love itself.
Supported by Jac & Rita. Canberra musicians, singer Jacquie Reid is joined by renowned cellist Rita Woolhouse in The Jac & Rita Project. Be captivated by beautiful songs brought to life with the charm of the ukulele and the richness of the cello in their repertoire of original songs. Hear Jac’s song Molongolo playing on ArtSound FM.
