Chloe Violette is a singer-songwriter whose work blends folk, indie pop, and atmospheric storytelling. Chloe is an artist that exudes charm with songs that evoke a captivating combination of heartache and hopefulness. Drawing deep inspiration from the suburban landscapes of inner city Melbourne (Naarm) and the stillness of regional Victoria, Gippsland (Brataualung Country). Chloe released her debut album, Colourfast, at the beginning of 2026. Her music is rooted in a strong sense of place, identity, and emotional truth. With a voice that is both tender and assured, Chloe crafts songs that explore memory, connections to place, and the quiet moments that shape us. Website Madeline Leman is a kindred of the women of the 1960s and 70s but her music plants her firmly in the present. Her blend of alt-folk, country and rock’n’roll is defined by effortless vocals, timeless melodies and poignant lyrics. Reminiscent of Judee Sill and Carole King and influenced by Marina Allen and Leah Senior, she and her band join the dots between the folk clubs of NYC, the muddy fields of Woodstock, the honky-tonks of Nashville and the dive-bars of Melbourne. Singing in protest, love and reverence for the natural world she adds a uniquely Australian feel to the American roots tradition. On June 12 Madeline released her much anticipated sophomore album Ripen on the Vine which will launch July 26 at the Northcote Social Club and with some regional dates with Leah Senior. Bandcamp The Misty Mornings is what happens when two wandering folkies—Kelsey Jean and Evan Jones—stumble out of their solo projects and into a sun-dappled harmony together. With acoustic guitars in hand and hearts full of 60s/70s nostalgia, they craft songs that sound like they were found pressed in the pages of an old storybook. Think fingerpicking, lush harmonies, and whimsical lyrics - they'll leave you with a warm melancholy.
