Ipswich Civic Centre Presents…Melissa Fraser, Raychel Stone and Clare Quinn present ‘Wildflowers’- a celebration of the songs of Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris.
This production is a collaboration by prominent, local and independent Queensland artists. Fraser, Stone and Quinn have collectively contributed over 60 years of music and performance to Australia’s thriving music scene. The trio of treasured local songbirds have come together to celebrate harmony and connection through the sharing of songs by the incredible women who have inspired their own musical journeys, with a modern interpretation of the classic songs featured on the ‘Trio’ records, providing a cross-generational musical experience.
Following a sold out performance at Brisbane’s Old Museum and attracting over 800 music lovers to Brisbane’s City Hall, plus recent significant global YouTube success, we are taking the show on the road.
