There is a last minute change in the line up for today's Music on Flinders. Due to illness Nice Verdes are unable to perform and in their place Sienna Hart will grace the Music on Flinders stage.

With a strong background in writing adult contemporary and indie pop songs for several Australian recording artists, Sienna is emerging now with a voice of her own. Her fresh debut EP Don’t Stop has already hit over 15 million streams on Tik Tok and is rapidly garnering attention on all major streaming platforms. Sienna performs regularly to great applause as anticipation rises for her upcoming debut album.
Sienna and Nat together create an unforgettable sound laced with spine tingling harmonies and intricate and melodic guitar sounds.

This coming Monday November 4th indie folk duo Nice Verdes will be performing at Music on Flinders from 12.30 -1pm. Nice Verdes began performing together in 2003, and have always been on some kind of adventure in search of new inspiration and music since. Their music is a sunny and uplifting mixture of originals and traditional folk music from Cuba, Colombia and beyond. They play combinations of Cuban tres, accordions, guitar, harmonica and vocals.
Inspired musically by their travels around the world, they defy genres to create their own indie world folk.
Over the years the duo have been on the road in Australia and Canada playing numerous venues and festivals. In Australia festival highlights include Cygnet, Wallaby Creek, Nannup and Illawarra, and in Canada, Kispiox , Arts Wells, Robson Valley, Edge of the World and Quadrapalooza. They were also invited in 2017 to perform in Valledupar, Colombia at the UNESCO declared festival ‘Encuentro Vallenato Femenino’. They have also completed tours of Europe and New Zealand and played cafes and bars on the streets of Latin America.
Nice Verdes have released four original albums, ‘Succulence’ in 2008, ‘Brontosaurus’ in 2014, 'Bouquet of birds' in 2016, and ‘feet in the ocean’ released in 2020.
They have always been drawn to collaborating with artists from all countries and they enjoy most of all the parties and festivals that celebrate a strong sense of community and equality in diversity.

It was a beautiful day in the city today and Music on Flinders had the pleasure of welcoming Gene Phoa back for another encore performance. With the touch of a finger and a deft tap of his foot, Gene created bass lines, percussive beats, melodic chordal riffs and soaring lead guitar parts to accompany his singing. A true one man band! Thanks Gene for bringing your awesome original tunes for us to enjoy at Music on Flinders.

This coming Monday October 28th Gene Phoa will be gracing the stage and performing his original songs at Music on Flinders from 12.30 -1pm. GENE PHOA is an emerging alternative singer-songwriter based in Adelaide, South Australia. Pairing a luminous voice with infectious hooks and anthemic shots of truth, he transforms malady into melody to find the light within the human experience.
Classically trained in piano throughout childhood, Gene picked up the guitar in a teenage bid to emulate his indie/alt heroes. Moving to Sydney in the hopes of landing a job in the music business, he detoured into the worlds of PR, startups and advertising. That was, until he left it all to go backpacking and an impromptu open mic night in India reminded him that the stage was where he was supposed to be.
Despite falling ill while abroad, Gene stayed committed to learning all aspects of the craft and finds inspiration in the likes of the Arctic Monkeys and Panic! at the Disco. His original song "Folklore War" took out the lyrics category at the 2019 SCALA Festival of Original Music and he will be sharing his yet-to-be-released debut of works, “Young Love Days” - a collection of lovelorn guitar ballads for the hopelessly romantic.
