Little Clouds

8PM
folk, indie
(Sydney, nsw)
It is intimate. It is real. Journeys will be had.

Little Clouds are a subtly nostalgic, feel good singer songwriter duo from Sydney, Australia. AKA Nick Henderson & Emily-Rose Sarkova write lofty afternoon inspired hits and introspective midnight bangers, laced with clever lyrics and sweet chords that make you feel real good. And let’s be honest – we are all in it for the feelings. They move between their multi-instrumentalist personalities of guitar, bass, banjo, piano, keys, synths, accordion and vocals. 

If one requires some hard hitting musical facts about these two musicians, you might like to know that they are Conservatorium graduates who have played with award winning and very diverse musicians such as Art Music Award finalists Emily-Rose and The Wild Things, ARIA nominated Chaika, jazz legend Mike Nock, world renowned Australian Brandenburg Orchestra and CIRCA!, triple ARIA award winning Monsieur Camembert, Latin Grammy nominated Duo Ramirez Satorre, Elio Villafranca, Arcing Wires and Chris Cody Octet.

Felicity Dowd

folk, country
(nsw)
A nomadic troubadour and storyteller spinning tales and melodies across the country…

Hailing from the NSW South Coast, Felicity Dowd has wowed audiences across the country, from main stages at Australia’s most prestigious events (National Folk Festival, Wanderer Festival and Cobargo Folk Festival) to support slots with music royalty, the Bushwackers, Josh Cunningham (The Waifs), Felicity Urquhart, Fanny Lumsden and Tex Perkins (The Cruel Sea).

Inspired by an eclectic and ever-changing landscape of genres her music is diverse, drifting between the boundaries of Folk and Country. She has always believed a song is only as good as its story, sharing stories of depth, heart and humour that intertwine the experiences of the world around her. This ideology and passion have been noticed by industry professionals, having already earned this young songwriter 4x Tamworth Songwriting Association Salute Awards, including the 2023 New Songwriter of the Year at the Tamworth Country Music Festival. 

‘Blue Skies’, her first single released in early March 2021, debuted at number one on the Country Itunes chart and AMRAP chart in its first week. Her third single 'Handle It' achieved similar success being named the most downloaded track on Play MPE on release day as well as the number 2 position on the AMRAP chart and 3rd on the Country Itunes Chart.

Let us carry you home on thoughtful three-part harmonies, original tunes and unexpected arrangements of songs old and new.

 

 

“Bower’s harmonies are a thing of beauty on their own, but overlaid on top of a mix of covers and their own work, it gets awfully close to magic.” -The Underground Stage
