Festival of Small Halls returns to Coramba with Georgia Mooney (AUS) and Joe H Henry (CAN).
Joe H Henry (CAN):
Métis singer-songwriter Joe H Henry possesses a voice described as “as powerful as a freight train,” a potent instrument that delivers his blend of early rhythm and blues, soul, and alt-country, enriched by folk-inspired lyrical depth.
Drawing from a life encompassing experiences from a homeless train-hopping youth to a homesteading father of five, Henry’s songwriting is thoughtful and his storytelling captivating, forging a strong connection with diverse audiences. This depth of experience resonates in every line he sings.
“It feels like a moment that I have waited my whole life for – while never knowing it was possible – is about to take place. I’m so very grateful to have the opportunity to make some lifelong memories in such an amazing landscape of amazing people.”
Georgia Monney (AUS):
ARIA-winner Georgia Mooney makes music fit for stargazing. Audiences first came to know her from beloved folk band, All Our Exes Live in Texas, who toured the world extensively, sharing stages with everyone from Backstreet Boys to Midnight Oil.
The release of Mooney’s debut solo album Full of Moon marked the stepping forward of a major talent. Co-produced with Grammy-winner Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Cate Le Bon, Marlon
Williams), the album is an ornately melodic, folk/dream-pop universe, carried by Mooney’s soaring ethereal vocals over lush, cinematic soundscapes.
“Full of Moon is nothing short of a triumph…” The Australian
★★★★ 1/2
“I’ve wanted to play a Small Halls tour for a long time and am absolutely thrilled to be doing one... It is so exciting to go beyond the big cities and visit country towns that are often overlooked on the touring circuit. I can’t wait to meet the local communities and have a big sing together! I have a feeling this is going to be a tour I remember forever!”
