In October 2006, Frankston-born indie-rock four-piece Deloris released their fourth and final record, Ten Lives. Twenty years later, they’re reuniting to perform some of it in its entirety. 

Formed in the late ‘90s, Deloris emerged from Frankston with a ragged indie-rock attack matched with melodic smarts and a knack for vivid lyricism. They went on to release four critically acclaimed albums, tour nationally, and play shows and tour with the likes of* The National, Lou Barlow, Okkervil River, The Mountain Goats, Something for Kate, Augie March, Bluebottle Kiss *and more.

Since disbanding in 2008 to pursue new, solo and side-projects, Deloris have occasionally reunited for special one-off performances. 

**This will be one of them.**

Deloris will be joined by a very special solo set from Frankston indie-rock royalty, Maisie Everett (The Bel Air Lip Bombs).

*“There's no doubting songwriter Marcus Teague's storytelling credentials. Australia has found a poet laureate for its dreams. With him Deloris aren't just good, they're great.”* - Neumu, review of Deloris’ Ten Lives

*Wheelhouse Agency presents*ELLA HOOPER

Regional Detour

*With Special Guests*

*Hot off the back of supporting the likes of James Taylor, Chris Isaak and The Waterboys, Ella is making a quick lap of the regions in solo mode - sharing snippets of the new Americana / Country album she's been crafting in Nashville USA.*

*As well as brand new bangers she'll share reinterpretations of favourites from her celebrated solo career AND a smattering of selections from the iconic Killing Heidi songbook. A performer that's constantly re-inventing herself - Ella is at the peak of her powers with her new music receiving high praise, radio play and chart love. Sharp, witty writing delivered with her trademark warm quirky character, the appeal of Ella's one-woman show is half in the music and half in the stories that are delivered in and around it. Well known for her super inclusive, nothing to hide personality, an Ella Hooper solo show feels more like a fireside hang than a stuffy recital. Come see what 'twists and bends' Hooper has been alchemising into her bold new material in these intimate, character packed rooms all around her beloved home state of Victoria. *

CONDENSED MILK - 'RED CARPET/JACKSON'S THEME' LAUNCH w/ RAPTOR & AUGUSTUS GROOVE (DEBUT)

Art School dropout, seminal punk rocker, and living legend.

Born into the isolation of the semi-industrial wastelands of 1950s outer suburban Perth, **Kim Salmon** clawed his way out of the swamp and onto the world stage in his bands, **the Scientists**, **the Surrealists**, and **the Beasts of Bourbon**.

**Kim Salmon **has earned his reputation as an authentic artist incapable of choosing the safe road. For nearly fifty years, he has performed on the world's biggest stages and with the most remote punk bands; traversing every corner of music and art to create a body of work that stands up with the best.

His latest band,** Smoked Salmon **is a concept, a collection of recordings, a collective, a philosophy of least resistance flowing from a reputation for resolutely going against the stream! Wait a minute! Least resistance? Against the stream? Here’s the clincher. You can do both!  Kim still has the desire to go upstream but has found a great source of new  repertoire fishing in the streams from whence such classics as "Frantic Romantic", "Last Night", "Dropout", "Come On Spring" and "Swampland" sprang!

They have toured Europe and Japan - combining classic moments from across his career with an album of brand-new original songs in 2025 and a follow up ‘Totally Sick’ coming May 29 2026.

***C.W. Stoneking*** returns to Australian stages this August and September, bringing his one-of-a-kind brand of hokum blues, jungle exotica, and old-time gospel to rooms and halls across the country.

From the tropical stages of the Darwin Festival to Sydney's Factory Theatre, the Corner Hotel in Melbourne to a golf club in the NSW hinterland, this tour winds its way through cities, coastal towns, and hidden gems alike. Wherever he plays, C.W. Stoneking turns the room into something stranger and more wonderful than it was before he arrived.

PONY FACE - LIVE IN FRANKSTON

**Celebrated songwriter Kristin Hersh will return to Australia this November for a run of intimate headline shows in support of her forthcoming new album Sugar On Blackstone, out 18 September via Fire Records.**

Renowned for her fiercely emotional performances and uncompromising songwriting, Hersh’s Australian dates will see her bring songs from Sugar On Blackstone to audiences across the country alongside highlights from her extensive catalogue.

Following on from 2023’s Clear Pond Road, Sugar On Blackstone is a darker yet delicately rendered collection exploring life and death, memory, survival and human connection. Deeply personal and emotionally expansive, the album reflects on the lasting bonds between musicians, family and friends, and the way certain sounds and places can suddenly bring someone vividly back into focus.

New single ‘Dark-Eyed Junco’ offers another striking glimpse into the album, pairing lucid melodies with deeply autobiographical storytelling. Recorded at Stable Sound Studios, the album features longtime collaborators Rob Ahlers (50FOOTWAVE) on drums and Pete Harvey (Throwing Muses) on cello.

Long celebrated as one of alternative music’s most singular voices, Hersh continues to deliver performances that are both intensely intimate and disarmingly powerful - a rare opportunity to experience one of modern music’s most influential songwriters up close.
