ARIA-nominated duo Mama Kin Spender (MKS) is the project of long-time friends and collaborators, Mama Kin (AKA Danielle Caruana), a storyteller with a penchant for soul-baring, and Dingo Spender, a producer, songwriter and instrumental wizard. Together they combine harmonies that shimmer and smoulder with drums, percussion and blistering guitar in lightning arrangements. MKS are an openhearted burst of sincerity, wonder and adventure, harnessing their songwriting to delve into the complexities of life. Their recordings include ARIA-nominated album Golden Magnetic and EP Are You Listening?. The magic in their music comes from their connection with each other and their songwriting craft and percussive beats, which breathe soul and vitality into every space they inhabit.

Workshop:

When we sing together, we remember the most important thing of all: that we belong to each other. In a rapidly changing world, amid an epidemic of loneliness, singing offers profound connection in resonance and harmony. Led by Danielle Caruana and Dingo Spender alongside choir whisperer Virginia Bott, this workshop invites everyone (no singing or choir experience needed) to learn a song from the duo’s ARIA-nominated album Promises. Join us, fellow lovers of song, this is community connection in real time.
