Showcasing three regional female artists - GOLDHEIST, Kay Proudlove and Kyla Belle, LITTLE BIRDS - brought to you by BIRDS OF A FEATHER (SING TOGETHER) - gives you a chance to get to know these witty, soul-searching, fun-loving songbirds in a charmingly intimate, collaborative setting. 

 GOLDHEIST, known offstage as Hester Fraser, is an Australian artist whose music is a rich blend of storytelling and catchy melodies, deeply rooted in the Australian landscape. Her sound has been likened to luminaries such as Kate Bush and Kate Miller-Heidke, and has been showcased at a number of festivals including Kangaroo Valley, Townsville and Cobargo Folk Festivals, pairing lyrical storytelling with an evocative musical style, drawing listeners into vivid narratives of Australian life from the bush and beyond.

"Listening to GOLDHEIST makes me feel like I just walked through a gallery of amazing impressionist paintings and all the colours attached themselves to me..."

Kay Proudlove is a Wollongong raised indie-folk singer-songwriter with a remarkably agile, engaging, honest, soul-bearing voice and a wry, dry-ice sense of humour. With a live performance style that is much like being invited into her lounge room, her songs are truly stories set to melody, by turns relatable, humorous and heartbreaking. Creating an intimacy between audience and performer through vulnerability, Kay's live show is likely to leave you wondering whether all of her songs are about you. Kay has been working as a professional musician for over 10 years, performing within the live music industry, television and theatre...

“Proudlove is the consummate performer, delighting crowds between songs and delivering lyric driven music that is instantly relatable”

Kyla Belle is a 17-year-old singer, songwriter from Moree, NSW. Her tribe is Gomeroi, and her music style is alt-country. Kyla won the Triple J Unearthed High Indigenous Initiative award in 2025 for her song “Myself” and has since proven herself to be an artist to watch. Most of her songs are written while sitting on her bedroom floor, and according to Kyla, her new song “Let Me Burn” is a step into a new era of her career, as she was influenced by a different perspective towards music after working with Australian producer Glenn Hopper (Ruel, Jessica Mauboy, Mariah the Scientist). The energy and edge of the track really does suggest a new era for a very exciting young talent…

“Kyla Belle is transforming into a superstar in front of our very own eyes! Wild to think she was part of Unearthed High just last year…”
