Jenny Biddle
2020-02-07 20:00 - 23:00 | Selby Community House, 1 Minak Road, Selby , 3159, Australia
With SIX albums under her belt and an iTunes chart-topping single, indie folk/blues songsmith, Jenny Biddle, wraps herself around her guitar, and like a marriage between body and instrument, she commands the guitar to talk with uncommon skill and absolute self-assurance. Her audience is compelled to join her on a voyage of passion and story in song.
Live on stage, with “a banter which is honest, direct, personal, affectionate, funny and utterly engaging” she has “that peculiar knack for making any space feel like a lounge room. her audience laughs and cries in all the right places. There is an indisputable sophistication in her lyrics that touches upon issues that affect us all; love, loss, hopes and fears, but also delves into the dark honesty of eating disorders, sexuality, depression, only to be lifted by her unexpected comical interjections between songs.
The guitar nuts are astounded by her ability to intertwine bass notes, percussion and melody so seamlessly that one could believe there are more instrumentalists on stage.

“’Your Company’ is a deep ocean swaying and heaving with dark tales, swirling melodies and astounding songs that float upon a hundred lovely stringed things. Songs filled with beauty, wisdom and magic with some of the sweetest ‘blood harmonies’ you’re likely to hear this side of this century! ” – Khristian Mizzi

Michael Waugh
2022-04-01 19:30 - 23:00 | Selby Community House, 1 Minak Road, Selby , 3159, Australia
After a time of loss and heartbreak the master songwriter delivers a deeply personal album – dark, harrowing & distinctly Australian – but ultimately healing.
Written and produced through the time of Melbourne’s COVID lockdown, the emotional core of the album is Waugh’s tribute to his parents who both died within 6 weeks of each other, just before Melbourne’s first lockdown in 2020. ‘He Taught Me’, ‘Hold on to the Ones You Love’ and ‘Too Many Drawers’ are heart rending, deftly told stories about Waugh’s parents, as he tries to come to terms with their loss. ‘Waugh-heads’ have already come to know and love John and Eileen Waugh as the Dairy Farmer and Heyfield Girl whose stories have lived large in Michael’s first three albums. The Cast is Waugh’s artistic exploration of being broken and learning to heal again.

Supported by duo Grand Baxter.

Gretta Ziller with Riley Jordan
2022-10-07 19:30 - 23:30 | Selby Community House, 1 Minak Road, Selby , 3159, Australia
First impressions aren’t always right. If you’ve been foolish enough to nail down the sound of acclaimed songwriter Gretta Ziller, then prepare to have the rug pulled out from under you. Queen of Boomtown, her stunning debut record, defies categorisation and demands repeated listens.
Written over an almost six-year period, this collection covers vast emotional territory. It’s threaded with a gentle fatalism, each song conveying an acceptance of the way things are and an openness to shifting circumstance.
Ziller’s sound may bear the hallmarks of classic Americana music but its essence is far more diverse. The Melbourne songstress’ roots span jazz, blues, rock, pop and classical, and that eclectic musical upbringing is reflected in the varied tracks on this new collection.
No matter the mood, Ziller demonstrates an assured sense of melody, building on the promise of ear-catching 2014 EP Hell’s Half Acre.

Once in high school, Clint took to forming a band with his fellow schoolmates and the rest is history.

Folk singer-songwriter Benoit will be returning to his favourite venue to release and perform his newest album, “Mountain”, for folkies and music lovers of Melbourne’s Eastern hills.
Marking Benoit’s third album release, “Mountain” includes songs of uncertainty, disenchantment and loss that seek to illuminate these experiences as necessary landscapes to traverse. Not understood as a wall to knock down or a lion to flee from, but as a friend that points to the soft golden autumn leaves falling on the dew capped grass.
Benoit will be joined by a number of local heroes of the hills to help perform the songs of “Mountain”, including John Schmidli, Tina Nabb, Ben Langdon (Grand Baxter), Zack Grace and Ol’ Shep (if the stars align).

Crackling with wit and infectious melody – Melbourne’s smouldering, cool, inner-urban contemporary folk savant, Matt Glass, is a craftsman: writer, performer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer.

Often brutally honest, non-romanticised little fragments of Melbourne life, Glass draws in the listener with strong urban-Australian, chill/indie-folk mastery.

2023-09-01 19:30 - 22:30 | Selby Community House, 1 Minak Road, Selby , 3159, Australia
Parkville are a cathartic folk duo from the Dandenong Ranges of Victoria. Liam (guitar) and Dylan (violin) have spent the better part of the last decade developing the kind of musical synergy that leads many an audience member to conclude that they must be siblings or spouses.
Cutting their teeth busking in Melbourne’s Bourke Street Mall, Parkville officially began with the release of The Peculiar Aftermath EP in 2017, which established their winning formula: a driving Mumford And Sons style backbone and boldly honest songwriting, topped with Knur’s signature effects-pedals-laden violin playing and a Punch Brothers-esque penchant for playful arrangements.
2018 saw the expansion of Parkville into a full band, culminating in 2019’s The Softest Murder EP, producing three well-loved singles and the chance to support Irish megastars Kodaline across both Melbourne shows of their Australian tour.
Having spent the last two years writing and refining their craft, Parkville are now closer than ever and are preparing for the next phase of their career. 2022 saw them move in together, set up a recording studio and complete a mammoth 23-song recording project. 2023 has so far seen the release of The 86, an ode to the best tram in Melbourne, and the first single from their upcoming debut album.
