Bringing the biggest soul party to Darebin Music feast vocalists May Johnston (Deep Street Soul), Lisa Faithfull (Soul Safari), Rita Satch, Christina Perfection (The Perfections), Carla Troiano (Mayfield). Chelsea Wilson and Carmen Hedricks unite to present two sets of original soul, funk and boogie.
In celebration of five years of collaborative live shows, the vocalists recently released their debut compilation, “Melbourne’s Women of Soul”, comprising ten new tracks recorded exclusively for the album.
