Surfergirl is Emma Homfray and Mia Schoen making music from another dimension. With symbolism from Egypt to Neptune and back again their sounds spans through time and place and brings it all together in a musical mediation. Nothing forced and nothing pushed, the meaning is there if you just want to to look inside. Surfergirl will bring you out of your body and into the wind, water and light.

R.Potoroo is a multi instrumental moving show consisting of Ricardo Sabbatini and Sarah McConnell. Together they make lightly twisted pop bangers that give you what you want yet challenge you at the same time. With songs questioning old ideals and offering a new way of seeing. Funky and slow, serious and fun. R.Potoroo are sweetness commanding change.
