Zoe Elliot has teamed up with Lincoln Smith to provide you with a fresh 'city folk' sound. It's one thing to witness a musical fusion of two performers, but something else when the two fell in love before ever playing together.

Having supported Renee Geyer (2013) and joined Matt Corby at a few secret garden gigs in 2011 and 2012, the duo have released one album (Precipitate) and are now working on a new EP. The pair's songs range from funky rhythmic tunes, to melodic and lyrical works exploring the issues of our time.

Winner of the Australian Songwriters Conference (ASC) Adult Contemporary category & overall prize (2010) and the 2GO Annual Acoustic Awards (2010) - this is an emerging act that is worth a peek.

Zoe Elliot is one of those natural talents who comes along once a decade. Her easy sultry style, slow sexy smile, the vocal and instrumentation to back it up. ... Her voice is captivating and pure. She glides from pop to folk with ease. This young, vibrant, beautiful songstress has the voice of an angel. Her skills on acoustic guitar are breathtaking. Shashona McCall, Indie Showcase

Zoe will be introducing at least one of her 2 new EPs at this show at The Fig.

Pat & Kellie are well known for their vocal harmonies coupled with a strong rhythm derived from their dual guitars and loop sampler. They have performed extensively not just in Oz but also Japan, USA, Canada & the UK.

Some of you will recognise Pat from his days in the very successful acts - The Flood and The O'Donnell Brothers.

This beautiful duo mightily impressed us with their cameo performance at the John McConnell benefit held at The Fig 18 months ago (see video above).

At The Fig Pat & Kellie will be performing songs from their new album with some made famous by Joni Mitchell, The Eagles& Fleetwood Mac.

To see and hear this rockin' 60's flavoured group is to be transported back in time to the most exciting era in pop music. Being a tribute to the period rather than a tribute to any one band, The Swinging Sixties have the flexibility to play ALL the big hits of the decade.

Dressed in tailor made 60's suits with all the accoutrements and armed with Rickenbacker and Gretsch guitars and Vox amps to reproduce magic sounds, this entertaining and authentic group has an exciting rawness that was prevalent at live shows of the era. A night with The Swinging Sixties appeals to audiences of all ages from Generation Y through to the Baby Boomers.

This is the band that once held an 8 year residency at the iconic Woolloomooloo Bay Hotel .
