ISOL-AID is back for the 59th time this Wednesday September 8th. With blue skies for miles this week’s artists will be stepping into the sunlight and enchanting us all, be that with a roaring live set or heart-stopping lyrics. Now that warmer weather is on the way it’s the perfect time to find the best part of your backyard/balcony/door step and watch some of the top local talent singing live to your phone.

Since teaming up with 99DESIGNS BY VISTAPRINT to offer creative and financial support to emerging homegrown acts Isol-Aid has received a staggering total of 975 nominations from local artists. Over the coming weeks all the freshly-picked talent will be sprouting from your screens, the most bountiful harvest of homegrown talent just for you.

The 59th edition gets off to a roaring start with some silky rhythmic grooves from New Zealand local MUROKI. Having grown up by the water, the laid back surfing and skating community he’s always been part of has imbued his music with an effortlessness that mesmerises all, including Benee who played his track on Elton John’s radio show. His smooth vocals and gliding melodies will melt even the toughest of us.

ALICE SKYE is a singer-songwriter, Wergaia/Wemba Wemba woman and universal little sister. Releasing her second album I Feel Better But I Don’t Feel Good in July this year Alice continues to look inwards, finding staunchness in softness. Alice’s emotional transparency targets the push-pull of the relationships we keep with ourselves and others, instilling a healing ode to life and getting by. This past year has seen Alice join Midnight Oil on their Makarrata Live Tour, feature on Moby’s latest album and take to the triple j airwaves with a Like A Version, proving she is truly rising to meteoric heights. 

Wrapping up the night is Melbourne based rockers BAKERS EDDY. Bringing rollicking live shows and infectious melodies that will be stuck in your head for days to come the band have cemented themselves as a staple of the local scene. They’ve supported everyone from The Rubens, Gang of Youths and WAAX and have become festival favourites, playing Falls, NYE On The Hill and Party in the Paddock. Loud, fast and dirty Bakers Eddy’s raucous energy has been winning over crowds nationwide.
