The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Australian-based folk diviner Leah Senior silences audiences with vivid lyricism and a voice that soars with a disarmingly honest Sandy Denny-like clarity. Leah effortlessly weaves spring-time baroque pop playfulness together with a fragile blend of bedroom folk. Her fourth album, The Music That I Make (2023, Poison City Records), reveals Leah, at her most intimate, her songs as a cycle of vulnerable meditations on what it means to create. The Music That I Make transports the listener to her sandstone shack in Anglesea, where autumnal British folk meets rain-streaked AM radio.  

Leah’s previous three albums, The Passing Scene, Pretty Faces and Summer’s On The Ground, were released through Flightless Records. A chance late-night encounter with King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard saw Leah Senior joining their independent label Flightless. In 2022, Leah and her band joined King Gizzard on a national tour of the USA/Canada, performing at iconic venues, including Red Rocks and Berkeley Theatre.
