Melissa Black is a stirring and powerful performer. With deep roots in folk and blues, opting for the past couple of years to not push the live performance scene but choosing to work with some of Australia’s finest songwriters and focus on delivering her next collection of works. Melissa will soon be releasing these heart songs and bringing them on tour.

A story teller, songwriter, mother, musician and youth music mentor – Black’s music is pure and honest, rich with imagery and delivered with a voice of milk and honey. “I am so excited to be getting back on stage and sharing my best songs yet with you all!!”

“Everything about Melissa Black’s five-song EP The Eden Project shouts, ‘Serious artist!’ Melissa is a strong female voice, which is something today’s music scene just doesn’t have enough of right now. She hearkens back to the singer/songwriters of yesteryear.” – Skopemag

Fusion Boutique Presents
MICK HARVEY & J.P. SHILO

Live in Concert at the Baroque Room, Carrington Hotel

THURSDAY 3rd November 2022
Doors Open 7pm | Show Start 8pm

Venue: BAROQUE ROOM 15 Katoomba St, Katoomba, NSW 2780 Blue Mountains.

Mick Harvey and J.P. Shilo will present their joint show which was last delivered on an extensive tour of Europe in late 2019. Plans to take the show around Australia were knocked on the head by the pandemic and now, more than 3 years later, they are back to present a joint show of J.P. Shilo’s ‘Invisible You’ with Mick Harvey presenting predominantly new songs from 2 albums which are in production. One of these albums is a duets project featuring Mexican singer Amanda Acevedo, who will be joining Harvey and Shilo for a large chunk of the former’s set, augmented by a string quartet and small band.

Mick Harvey is best known as a founding member of The Boys Next Door, The Birthday Party and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds as well as being a long- time collaborator to both Nick Cave & PJ Harvey.

He has released more than 10 solo albums under his own name including the four volume series of Serge Gainsbourg translated recordings, as well as a selection of soundtracks for film and television. He has produced a number of acclaimed albums by other artists and consequently been the recipient of several Australian industry awards including AFI Best Original Score for ‘Suburban Mayhem’ in 2006 and in 2011 took out British Producer of the Year for his (co)production on PJ Harvey’s ‘Let England Shake’.

J.P. Shilo was in the Blackeyed Susans, Rowland Howard’s band & Hungry Ghosts.

This will be a special night of masterful music not to be missed and tickets are limited for this one show only!
