SARAH BELKNER & FRIENDS 💙🎤🎤🎸🎸🎹
Over 4 Mondays in September, SARAH BELKNER brings her unique existential indie singer-songwriter vibes to Butchers Brew Bar, teaming up with different great local artists every week. Together they will bring a residency filled with old songs, brand new songs, a chance to let her know songs you may want to hear her & her guest do together & maybe even a singalong or two for everyone to enjoy.
Feautured artists are the incredible BABY VELVET, BRENDAN MACLEAN, ELANA STONE & COOEE. Each week will be its own adventure & a great way to warm the heart at the start of the week.
Sarah would describe ELANA STONE as a “Sister From Another Mister”. They tour together playing in Missy Higgins band & had their babies within a couple of months of each other. Elana has been a huge influence on so many artists - Sarah included - as she is just a killer musician with one of Sydney’s most iconic voices. The pair have supported each other musically & humanly for the past almost 20 years so it’s pretty special when they get together. They collectively love a laugh & a good wail ,so this night will be sure to include some good stories & delicious songs.
⭐️ ELANA STONE is a double ARIA Award-winning singer, songwriter & multi-instrumentalist whose music blends instrumental invention with playful quirk & deep emotional resonance. Her distinctive style weaves together elements of folk, modern electronica, indie pop & balladry, all underpinned by her lyrical vulnerability & exceptional melodic instinct. Elana has released four critically acclaimed solo albums 'In The Garden of Wild Things' (2006), 'Your Anniversary' (2009), 'Kintsugi' (2015) & 'Married to the Sound' (2024). Each record showcases her evolving sound - by turns exultant and introspective - while affirming her place as one of Australia’s most original & dynamic voices. She is also a founding member of the ARIA Award-winning folk/ alt-country supergroup 'All Our Exes Live in Texas', known for their lush harmonies & captivating live performances. The band has toured extensively across Australia, the US, UK & Europe, sharing stages with global acts such as The Backstreet Boys, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, & Midnight Oil.
In addition to her solo & group work, Elana is a longtime member of Missy Higgins’ live band & has toured internationally with the John Butler Trio as a singer, pianist, accordionist & percussionist, opening for John Butler across Europe in 2022. Her collaborative spirit has seen her perform & record with a wide range of artists, including Hermitude, Megan Washington, Josh Pyke, Kate Miller-Heidke, Jackson Jackson, Ngaiire, Passenger, Donny Benét, Bluejuice & the beloved Melbourne comedy group Tripod.
