A Midwinter Snuggle Down Concert
With Briony Greenhill & JoJo and the Wildflowers
Bring pillows and cozies and snuggle in. We'll sing songs together ‘til our bodies are relaxed and humming, then you can close your eyes and rest while our music washes over.
Briony will tinker the ivories of the grand piano and share new work on the theme of Anthropocene Motherhood, along with some favourites from the last album.
Jolana will be joined by a lo-fi acoustic gathering of a few of her band members for some gentle, soulful numbers.
We’ll have herbal teas and homemade cacao to drink.
We hope you can join us for some warm community time, good music medicine, and restful replenishment.
To swell musical beauty around the midwinter cup.
Doors 7pm, Concert 7.30 - 9.45ish…
Suggested contribution $20-40 per ticket. Pay what is comfortable. Kids come for free. n-o-t-a-f-l-o-f.

Briony Greenhill (and baby Robin)
“Briony’s voice touches something so deep inside, something that’s hard to communicate as a parent of a young one in this world at this time. Her tone is enchanting, old and unique, and her lyrics speak poetry to the unspeakable – the unique experience of being awake and aware to the plight of the world, but trying to live in joy and action, purpose and care. She has something special to say. And the way she brings it to parenting makes it especially unique for us – who struggle to feel a sense of community and shared experience with others. For a short time, her art gave us that.” – Abel Pearson of Glasbren
“Greenhill’s jazzy, languid lyrics groove on the healing beauty of song, the planet and your own heart and soul, like Marvin Gaye crossed with a funky Earth mother…. This is sensual music that, if you want them, could give extra reasons to live.” – Mojo
“As I watched and listened to Briony I found my soul and heart transfixed. When we sing and commune with Briony, we experience an artist coming to us straight from her soul, unfiltered, direct, and all who listen are transformed and feel ourselves and our connection to the world so much more deeply as this tremendous, once-in-a-decade artist brings us deep into her world, a world which is all of our world.” – Yari Mander
“I came home with a wide-opened heart” – Svieta
Briony and Robin (Robin won’t be performing…. but does feature in some songs….)
