Malmsbury-based Evan and Mischa come together to explore traditional Celtic and associated music styles combining flute, accordion, guitar, whistles and banjo in unexpected and striking combinations. Evan Davies and Mischa Herman are both talented multi-instrumentalists, whose intricate arrangements of traditional tunes are complemented by a suite of their own original compositions. “Not often do I come across musicianship on traditional instruments at this level. Florid runs amidst gorgeous tones and pulsing rhythms, this music is sure to lift the soul.” Anthony Norris
Mickey and Michelle are Michelle Doyle and Michael O’Donnell: an Australian harp and violin duo who seamlessly blend contemporary folk and jazz in a rich, unique style of their own. Their debut album 'A Walking Pace' showcases the duo’s intricate sound and unusual combination of styles. Michelle was born into a multi-generational musical family and trained as a classical musician at the Victorian College of the Arts. Mickey is a self-taught rocker who eventually found a home for his love of improvisation in jazz violin.
