Melissa Main, a seasoned performer, roughed-up troubadour and award-winning songwriter returns to the Rous Mill stage with a suitcase overflowing with original songs. And some rather talented musical human friends. Her music sidles up to folk, brushes up against blues and gives jazz a slight tickle: she plays a travel-worn but well-loved Bolivian nylon stringed guitar and is accompanied by Madeline Flowers, Jay Kingdom & Dan Brown (Vox, Drums, Keys/Bass).
Shelly’s voice is a warm, softened tone, dynamic and powerful. Her music is a blend of groove, folk, jazz and soul music. She plays baritone ukulele with reckless abandon. Her dad told her a guitar is a percussion instrument, and she’s never looked back. She performs with the effervescent Dan Brown (Red Bantoo) on Keys and Bass. Shelly currently leads an All Welcome “Brunch Choir” in Lennox Head on Tuesdays. She teaches (All Welcome) Songwriting and Vocal Joy Workshops at SAE. Shelly grew up by the river in the bayou of the Ballina/Byron Bay Region (Bundjalung land) with a family of sailors, aviators and a community of builders and creators and was encouraged to be passionate, driving, optimistic and eccentric and prolific. Her albums are available via the streaming platforms, Bandcamp and another album is very close on the horizon. And her Podcast: Singing Lessons for No One Podcast has just hit 84k plays ( Oct 2023)

This one isn’t me,
But, This came across my world and I thought you might like to know.
Wild Man Choir: A Story in Song (Byron Bay) – 10th December
Hosted by ARIA-nominated singer/songwriter Dingo Spender (of Mama Kin Spender) and Meditation Australia president and storyteller, Asher Packman, ‘Wild Man Choir: A Story in Song’ is a call out for brotherhood.
We live in a time where men are becoming increasingly disconnected from one another, where male suicide statistics remain bleaker than ever. By standing shoulder-to-shoulder and singing from our depths – with both strength and tenderness – we can change the narrative around what it means to be a man. This is a gathering where men can unite and support each other to lean in and make change, starting where we all must – within.
Wild Man Choir seeks to reconnect men through the power of the voice and the breath.
