Kick those Monday blues to the curb at Social Sanctuary – your weekly night of free live music at NSC. We've lined up a stellar roster of your fave local artists and some exciting new talents breezing through town!

This week Alice Skye, Tiana Khasi and Inanna Indigo are stopping by for a special FUSE Festival Takeover show.

Alice Skye is a multi-award winning Wergaia / Wemba Wemba musician unbound by any artistic parameter, her body of work sparkling with harmonic sensitivity and maturity well beyond its years. Once-private bedroom scribbles are presented as articulate lyrics on love, loss, and life, offering a looking-glass into the world Skye finds herself in. New sonic explorations on her latest album bring grungier, heavier flavours to the sound, resulting in one entrancing groove after another. The gentle moodiness of Skye’s song writing is described by NME as “nuanced, open-hearted revelations”, and matched with a voice so hopeful and haunting, naturally sweet and dreamlike, the melancholy presented by Alice Skye could not be more inviting.

Tiana Khasi is a jazz-educated, community-focused singer-songwriter based in Naarm/Melbourne, creating a bold blend of contemporary R&B, soul, jazz and pop. Drawing on her Samoan and Khasi (Meghalaya, India) heritage, she places questions of home, ancestry and belonging at the heart of her work, describing herself as "a bridge person... doing what I can now to be a good future ancestor." Since the release of her acclaimed debut EP Meghalaya, Tiana has earned international recognition for her emotionally rich songwriting and powerful live performances, appearing at festivals including WOMADelaide, Dark Mofo and Vivid, and sharing stages with artists such as Masego, Nubya Garcia and Pip Millett.

Inanna Indigo, the dynamic and heartfelt band fronted by Wotjobaluk artist Indigo Mckeon, creates a soulful, jazzy, folky blend of love-soaked musical goodness. Exploring story and memory both personal and ancestral through song, they share the intimacy of what can be communicated through layers of expression, creating from the tender parts of ourselves. Their long-awaited debut album, To Be Soft Is To Be Strong, arrives September 23rd.

Social Sanctuary is proud to be sponsored by Mountain Goat.
