PETER FENTON
Peter is known as the charismatic front man for the Sydney band Crow, which was formed in the 1980's. Throughout the 90’s, Crow released three critically acclaimed albums - the Aria-nominated ‘My Kind Of Pain’ plus the much respected ‘Li-Lo-ing’ and ‘Play With Love’. A live favourite, Crow were renown for their intense gigs. Touring with Jeff Buckley, Nirvana, Sebadoh, Pavement and Sonic Youth amongst others, Crow were touted as the ‘best band in Australia since The Birthday Party’ (Juice Magazine 1998). They have been credited as an influence on Augie March.
After Crow went their separate ways Fenton went on to an acting career, including a lead role in the film version of Andrew McGahan’s novel Praise and a subsequent part in ABC drama series Love Is a Four Letter Word.
Ten years since disbanding, the band reformed with their classic line up. Fronted by contributing songwriters, Peter Fenton and Peter Archer and backed by drummer John Fenton and bassist Jim Woff, CROW made a welcome return to the Australian music scene. https://www.facebook.com/pages/C-R-O-W/133762269979382

CAITLIN HARNETT
Caitlin Harnett hails from Sydney, Australia but her songs evoke Laurel Canyon of the early 1970's. They share the personal and poetic nature of Joni Mitchell and Jackson Browne's early songs, youthful in their outlook but with age-old concerns at their core.
Caitlin is one of the youngest signings to Mushroom Music Publishing, Australia's largest independent music publisher. She has been recognised both internationally and locally for her songwriting.
September 2013 saw Caitlin head to Ottawa, Canada to record her debut full length record with producer Dave Draves (Kathleen Edwards, Howe Gelb), Jim Bryson and a group of Ottawa based musicians. The record is scheduled for release in early 2014. What started as a 2 week recording project has led to a 3 month adventure, which saw her touring from the East coast of Canada to the West. In between she found time for shows in Boston and the Rockwood Music Hall in New York. http://www.caitlinharnett.com/

A GIRL'S A GUN
A Girl's a Gun is a Sydney-based rock and roll band, with a sound coming out of the same Southern Rock soup that most likely influenced the Stones while they were busy influencing The Black Crowes: sexy, fuzzy, and full of blues.
Lucia Neville ‘Chi’ who fronts the band has a huge rock voice that just doesn’t stop. The band’s sound is rounded out by twin guitars, bass, drums, big riffs, spaghetti western, Texas blues, thumping beats and fat bottom end. http://www.agirlsagun.com/
