ARIA award-winner Thelma Plum is out and about touring her latest album, I’m Sorry, Now Say It Back, this month. You’ll be able to catch her at the UC Refectory on Thursday night.
Beloved indie folk singer-songwriter Skyscraper Stan will be back in the capital this Friday along with his long-time band The Commission Flats. They’ll be playing cuts from their latest record, Those Were Days, with some old favourites thrown in for good measure.
Canberra’s genre-blending maestro Koebi Faumui is set to return from a two-year hiatus this week as he launches his latest single ‘Your Theme Song’. Catch him at Gang Gang on Sunday with support from vocalist and pianist Grace Faletoese.
Elsewhere, Yungabilli First Nations Open Mic night will return to the Tuggeranong Arts Centre on Thursday, and Sydney’s own Vetty Vials will bring her Maybe Later album tour to The Baso on Saturday.
