Songs From The Canyon
Songs From The Canyon is a celebration of Laurel Canyon’s golden era, the bohemian neighbourhood nestled in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles, that gave rise to some of the most influential and melodic music of the 1960s and ’70s. A fertile creative hub where peace, love and music reigned. From all-night jam sessions to chart-topping masterpieces, Laurel Canyon birthed an iconic sound that continues to echo through generations. 


Freya Josephine Hollick
Ballarat-based FREYA JOSEPHINE HOLLICK is a rising star of Australia’s alt-country scene, known for her haunting vocals and genre-blending sound of cosmic country, desert blues and psych-folk. Her latest album, The Real World – recorded in Joshua Tree with Lucinda Williams’ band, Buick 6 – was dubbed by Double J as “one of the 50 best albums of 2022”, reaching number one on the AIR 100% Independent chart and number two on ARIA’s Australian Country chart. Her latest single Inevitable Sorrow, featuring soaring fiddle and psychedelic banjo, is a striking return to her earlier work. As veteran music journalist Jeff Jenkins said, “I have heard hundreds of Australian singers and songwriters. Many of them are good, some are very good, but only a few are truly special – and I put Freya Josephine Hollick in that category”.
