After more than a decade releasing albums and touring with award-winning indie-folk pioneers Tinpan Orange, Emily Lubitz has stepped out on her own. Emily’s debut record, Two Black Horses sounds like an old Hollywood movie, starring Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline and Phoebe Bridgers, who go on holidays together and talk about their feelings. Her live show will break hearts but keep toes tapping. The band is hot. Lubitz and her band will take to the Archies Creek Hotel stage to launch her much awaited debut solo album.

Mark Howard returns to Archies Creek Hotel with his band to launch his brand new album Deep Dark Blue. Wanderer, mercurial frontman, and dusk lit storyteller, Mark Howard is a voice from the edge of the map. Rooted in the windswept coastlines of Phillip Island and shaped by the grit of 45 countries’ worth of stages, his songs walk the line between folk, rock, and country. Tipping his hat to the likes of Michael Hutchence, PJ Harvey, and Robert Louis Stevenson, Howard holds a room and howls vivid tales of motion, memory and the human mess.

Join MAMA KIN SPENDER as they share new songs from their concept album PROMISES (out August 25), exploring love’s optimism, decay, rampage, and transformation. Their sound is a raw fusion of garage, soul, and folk — driven by pounding drums, dynamic percussion, and blistering guitar. Howling harmonies into the abyss, raging against the rot of the mundane, careless behaviours, childish reactions. This tour is a rally cry to the heart — don’t miss it!
