Kate Miller-Heidke is an award-winning singer-songwriter who traverses the worlds of pop, folk, opera and musical theatre.

She’s performed on stages as varied as Coachella, the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, the New York Metropolitan Opera, the Eurovision Song Contest, the Sydney Opera House, TV’s The Voice, and the Roebuck Bay Hotel, Broome.

She is also a born storyteller. Her music is influenced by the narrative traditions of folk, the drama of opera, and the great singer-songwriters of pop. She weaves tales of humour and pain, intimacy and grandeur, joy and regret, childhood and ghosts. The last day of school, and the last day on earth. Where joy is zero gravity, and love is like vertigo. With characters who expand within us to live beyond the confines of their four minutes - James being bullied in the school yard. Sarah’s gone missing from the festival. Muriel is just finding out she’s amazing.

Behind them all is Kate and Kate is telling tales. (Some of them might even be true.) Reaching out to the audience, with songs and stories borne out of the many worlds and many disciplines she has travelled. Sung in a voice like no other.

The Telling Tales Tour will be a celebration of songs old and new, of voice, storytelling, emotion, humour, and music that transports and transcends. Of discovering anew each night the transformative connection between the performer and the audience.

Join us for this special opportunity to see Kate in an intimate, exposed, and revealing performance, accompanied by her long-term collaborator Keir Nuttall on guitar.

Supporting Kate Miller-Heidke is Elana Stone.

Elana's new songs venture into a wide range of themes such as finding love, motherhood against the backdrop of a worldwide pandemic, climate change, social/political polarisation, friendship, love, loss, and lockdown - all served on a crispy bed of synth pop, hazy guitar and to-die-for vocal harmonies with a side of 70’s drums and in your face, fuzz bass.
