An entertainer at heart and in person. ALISHA TODD Alisha hails from small town Gympie, raised on country and rock and has recently returned from a long European hiatus with lots to share. With a new profound affection for jazz fusion and the rhythms encountered in late night street ciphers and D Angelo records, Alisha extends her bubble of happiness with everyone she plays to through her wandering melodies and old soul delivery. ALISHA WILL BE JOINED BY PERFORMER LEE HARDISTY Lee Hardisty brings a plethora of instruments; flute, saxes, guitar, kalimbas, keys and vocals to the stage live looping a mix of your favourite covers and his own original music. Sometimes flamencoesk sometimes dub and sometimes just pure dancing joy. Photo Caption
