ELLA HOOPER live @ Dangar Island
About
Ella Hooper is hitting the road with a sharp, heartfelt edge to her ever-evolving take on Americana. Ella’s gift for storytelling and humour shines as she fronts a dynamic band, laced with fiddle, guitar, warm group harmonies and more than a little grit.Playing some favourites from Small Town Temple - the album that debuted at No. 1 on the Australian Country chart - Ella will also be sharing a sneak peek of new music recorded in Nashville in 2025.
There are bar room stompers, spectral ballads with a contemporary edge, and hooks sharp enough to draw blood.
"Call it Americana, call it alt-country, call it what you like. Hooper puts it this way: “Can you really ‘go country’ if you’re from the country in the first place?"
Opening the show on the day will be special guest Melody Pool -
Melody Pool is an acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter known for her evocative storytelling and hypnotic voice, rising to prominence with The Hurting Scene (2013) and Deep Dark Savage Heart (2016).
Her 2025 return, Our Eternal Garden, debuted at #4 on the ARIA charts and stayed in the ARIA charts for 12 consecutive weeks, reaffirming her status as one of Australia’s most treasured and authentic musical voices.
