Headlining this special event is a rare and unforgettable collaboration between two of Australia’s most compelling musical forces: Kutcha Edwards and Cash Savage and the Last Drinks. Kutcha, a proud Mutti Mutti, Yorta Yorta and Nari Nari singer/songwriter, has been weaving music and activism since the 1990s. His deeply personal songs speak to identity, survival and hope, resonating across generations and cultures.

Kutcha will be joined by Melbourne powerhouse band Cash Savage and the Last Drinks, best known for their emotionally charged, full-throttle live shows. Together, they’ll reinterpret Kutcha’s songs with raw energy. This performance won’t just entertain; it will challenge and uplift audiences.

Opening the show, is the magnetic Canisha, a soulful singer and rising star in the Australian music scene. Canisha first turned heads performing alongside Briggs at the Bad Apples House Party. With a blend of pop, soul and powerful storytelling, Canisha brings joy and relatability to every performance.

Paulo Almeida and his band are island rhythms and smooth reggae, inspired by his roots in Timor Leste and Portugal.
