HERA
Hera is an award-winning Icelandic-Kiwi singer/songwriter who has lost count of how many times she has traveled around the world with her guitar. Her self-titled album released in 2020 to critical acclaim and reached #1 on the album charts in Iceland.
She has been named 'Best Female Artist' at the Icelandic Music Awards, performed in 2022 at the famous SXSW festival in Texas, and twice at the iconic Glastonbury in the UK. As well as touring the world from Italy to Indonesia, Australia to the Philippines... even to Greenland, where she played among icebergs at a remote beach in Tasiilaq.
Hera has a long musical history, including: a Gold-selling record, high-rotation radio play, and support slots for the likes of Nick Cave, Joe Cocker, Amanda Palmer, and the Dresden Dolls.
SAMUEL R. SAFFERY
From rural New Zealand to the subways and bodegas of New York, Samuel R. Saffery’s musical journey is unquestionably linked to place and movement.
Blending indie folk, alternative rock, and classical influences, his songs are delivered with a distinctive, melodic voice, as haunting as it is sweet.
Honest and gutsy lyricism, a commitment to simplicity, and a willingness to connect, combine to give listeners the sense they are sharing in a secret that might not be retold.
Saffery is a member of Indie folk bands Bird Courage and Lucide, and kid's music group Safari Kids. His solo music explores themes of identity, the subconscious world, human beings’ sense of place and their daily connections with one another.
