Over the past few years, Wendy Rule has become one of Melbourne's most respected and sought-after artists, her emotionally rich, enticingly cinematic songs and extraordinary voice drawing more and more people into her musical world. It's a world unlike any other - often dark, always adventurous, filled with memorable melodies, gentle textures, and dramatic power. The atmospheric and richly emotive songs of Wendy Rule have entranced and excited an ever-growing audience, both on disc and in live performance. She is one of Australia's most consistent and innovative artists, and her songs combine irresistible melodies with rich aural textures and a rare personal honesty, her remarkable voice traversing emotions and octaves with effortless grace. Her 2 CDs, Deity and World Between Worlds are both albums of rare depth, adventure and maturity cementing Wendy's status as one of Australia's most inventive and essential artists. "Dark, sensual sonic theatre in the vein of Kurt Weill... compelling stuff" Rolling Stone Australia |

Fiona Boyes

Fiona Boyes is widely regarded as the leading female blues guitarist in Australia today. Fiona plays both acoustic finger style and electric guitar and is a distinctive vocalist and songwriter. Influenced by early blues players such as Memphis Minnie, Tommy Johnson and Rev Gary Davis, her own songs are styled from ragtime to country blues. In 1999 two of her tunes were finalists in the Songwriters Association National Songwriting Competition. The front person of the Southern and New Orleans style blues band, The Mojos, for the past twelve years, Fiona has now embarked on a solo career with the release of her CD Blues in my Heart. "A very, very, fine CD. Mellow and infectious, acoustic blues at its best"
"A gorgeous voice, enviable fretwork and provocative song writing"
