Ben Osmo
Ben Osmo is a multi-award winning film sound mixer and has also been an avid musician for many years. When he travels the globe working on films, his guitar and flute are packed along with the sound gear. His songs reflect the people and places and experiences on the way; they are heartfelt, rhythmic, and melodic, with an acoustic jazz / blues influence. He loves to write and perform his songs and selected covers whenever he can.

Marc Maeji
Marc Maeji is a Sydney-based singer, guitarist and songwriter who creates intimate, soulful live experiences through acoustic music. For Marc, music is about more than simply playing songs. It is about the emotions those songs awaken and the connections they create between people. In a time when genuine human connection can feel increasingly rare, Marc believes live music can create a space where people slow down, listen, share an experience and feel connected to one another.

Jay South
Jay began playing in his teens, learning classical solos before moving on to pop, R&B and blues with Sydney bands.
After many years teaching, composing, arranging and managing youth bands he has returned to the stage to present the healing sound of solo guitar and self-penned original songs using a lifetime of musical influences and his own arrangements.

He has 100 original songs which he performs at songwriters' and open mic nights and which tell the story of his life. Last year, one of his comedy songs got to the finals of the Australian Songwriters Association contest.
