\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSteve Clisby\u2019s career has been about breaking down barriers. From jamming with Hendrix, to touring alongside Chaka Khan, Hot Chocolate, Kool and the Gang, Santana, Frank Zappa and Tina Turner, Steve made a name for himself.\nAfter half a lifetime globetrotting, Steve Clisby made Australia his home and in 2013, he became a citizen.\n\u201cI connect with this country on so many levels. Australia is growing and change is part of the culture, politically, environmentally and artistically and anyone can be a part of the process. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been\u201d.\nWhile Steve\u2019s televised rediscovery on The Voice Australia brought about enormous recognition, it was also a profound personal and professional journey. Following The Voice, Steve was selected for the high profile Commonwealth Bank CAN campaign which gave fans further insight into his life, airing for over twelve months and resulting in the release of the album \u201cLeave Me Dreaming\u201d and the track \u201cThree Little Letters\u201d.\n\u201cIt was yet again something I didn\u2019t think I would ever do,\u201d he explained. It was my life story and really spoke in a way that is authentic to my message. Both this and The Voice has taught me that if you\u2019re open to new things, you can make a difference and be a part of positive change. <\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWith a career spanning more than a decade, Australian singer-songwriter Mark Wilkinson has carved out a unique place in the indie folk landscape through his lyrical depth and captivating live performances. As a fiercely independent artist, he has amassed over 150 million streams, sold tens of thousands of records, and built a devoted global fanbase drawn to the honesty and emotion in his songwriting.\nWilkinson\u2019s live shows are intimate celebrations of connection \u2014 warm, engaging and rich with storytelling. Drawing comparisons to artists like David Gray and Damien Rice, his performances feel like heartfelt conversations between artist and audience.\nWith dynamic acoustic textures, soul-stirring vocals and an unmistakable sense of sincerity, Wilkinson\u2019s music explores themes of love, loss, and the complexities of the human experience. Each song captures the beauty hidden in everyday moments, leaving listeners with the feeling they\u2019ve shared something deeply personal and real.\n<\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
