Rachel Coppen—vocalist for the soulful, R&B-inspired band ‘Portra’—has been gigging in the local Adelaide music scene for over a decade, starting her career as a busker in Rundle Mall. Since then, she has showcased her smooth vocals serenading loved-up crowds at weddings, or entertaining at pubs, wineries, and private events.
Lucas Day and his multi limbed skills with foot drums, live-looping and singer/songwriter flair takes one man band to a whole new meaning. Day grew up in the southern suburbs of Adelaide, cutting his musical teeth singing covers to half-cut punters in front bars across the pubs of South Australia. After turning to songwriting, his personal journal became a collection of lyrics, and his guitar became a tool to learn about heartache, self discovery and helpless optimism. With Lucas’s lyrical language and his groovy acoustic blues riffs with four home recorded tracks – he’s an artist to watch out for!
Since being clocked singing a soaring vocal over “Never Tear Us Apart” on her pal Allday’s 2014 Triple J Like A Version, Gabrielle Hyde has been grafting away and honing her skills on the local circuit for the past 5 years. Regularly partnered with Steve Hart, a well established DJ/Producer, they freshen up the sounds and have released their lead single “Spectrums (oh u and me)” which are spun in clubs across Adelaide.
Relax and be entertained with singer-songwriter Josh Morphet. This acoustic wiz plays a variety of originals, chillers and bangers at festivals, weddings, corporate and private events.
