	MIA DYSON Mia broke into the Australian music industry with success at radio and ARIA nominations for each of her three albums in the “Best Female Artist” and won an ARIA for “Best Blues & Roots Album” for her second release “Parking Lots”. Mia’s reputation and outstanding performances and brilliant musicianship garnered her national tours opening for iconic artists including, Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, and Joe Cocker and has been featured at many major music events including Montreaux Jazz festival, Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festivals (Aus), WOMAD and many more.			KASEY CHAMBERS Throughout her career Kasey has earned the respect of some musical giants such as Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, Dwight Yokham, Ben Harper and author/filmmaker Michael Moore to name a few. Always moving forward, Kasey is currently working on the next project “Kasey Chambers, Poppa Bill & The Little Hillbillies”. This includes her first children’s book and joint effort Album with her Dad Bill, which also sees the debut of a new generation of singer/songwriters. The Little Hillbillies are made up of Kasey’s sons Talon and Arlo, Bill’s further additions, Jake and Tyler, Nash’s tribe of 3, Eden, Skye and Béla and best friend Worm’s son Townes.

	LISA MILLER With her band (featuring guitarist and producer Shane O'Mara), Miller has been a sporadic live performer in and around Melbourne, with forays up the east coast of Australia, including the Byron Bay Blues Festival. She has played with Billy Bragg and toured Australia with Neil Young and Nick Cave. She has also appeared on recordings by Australian musicians David McComb, Tim Rogers, Tex Perkins, Andy Baylor, Barb Waters, Doug Mansfield, Amanda Brown (of The Go-Betweens) and David Chesworth. At one time she was managed by the late Mick Geyer (close associate of Nick Cave), but is now self-managed.			VIEUX FARKA TOURE Having a famous dad can be more of a curse than a blessing. For every Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart who overtook his father in the family business, there are thousands of sons who follow their dads with little success. But Vieux Farka Touré, the son of the great Malian guitarist and Grammy award winner Ali Farka Touré, has already stepped out from his late father’s shadow. Ali Farka Touré proved – in case anyone ever doubted it – that the soul of the blues could be found in West Africa. His son Vieux is turning heads with a more radical idea: that those Western Saharan roots can be heard in everything from the Indie Rock scene to Jamaican dub.
