Singer-songwriter Oliver Downes blends refined piano-playing with instantly hummable melodies and thought-provoking lyrics. Adorned with ‘soaring melodies and sharp wit in equal measure’ (Tone Deaf), his music offers lush fusion of dreamy ballads and instantly familiar chamber pop. He returns with a deeply personal collection forged in the long winter of Melbourne’s covid lockdowns reflecting on love, loss and family. Expect something intimate, heartfelt and sincere.
Finley and Isla Brentwood offer melodic, acoustic song delivered with angelic vocal harmonies. Having achieved viral notoriety for their crowd-pleasing stripped-back take on the ‘Deadpool Rap’, (featured on ‘Deadpool Reloaded’) and appearances on 2016’s ‘The X Factor Australia’, the siblings return with an EP traversing love, loss, escapism and anxiety with a new pop-driven direction.
Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
