Fusion: Alternative cross genre rap
RIVER MOVEMENT
River Movement was formed in 2017, as a band with a strong collaborative vision, intent on sharing a message of hope through a genre-blurring fusion of rap and folk as its core. Along with the band’s trade-mark live break out freestyles (mid set), they regularly leave audiences wondering what will happen next. The band’s signature sound has organically evolved and resulted in a truly unique body of work. Hailing from South East Queensland, spanning both the Gold Coast and Brisbane, the band enjoys touring up and down the coast – and to remote regions, and interstate. Over the past few years, River Movement has released a series of singles, leading up to their debut album, ‘Impending Light,’ in 2019; and their second album ‘Immersing Light,’ in 2024. After 6 years and countless gigs, we are just getting started. Join us on the journey as we perform and release new music.

JARYD HOFFMAN
May my songs help you to know and love God better. My songs reflect Gods work in my life. Maybe you’ll resonate? I record and produce everything at home. God keeps blessing me with songs. Some to sing at church with others and some to bop along to in the car. I wonder who might be blessed by them.

CHRISTIAN POP
AMITY GILMOUR
I am a 23-year-old Christian singer/songwriter from Sydney. I have just started my journey of taking my love for music to the next level. I played my first festival in January at the Tamworth Country Music Festival at Jubilee Cafe. I also have 13 years of experience performing and gigging in my childhood local area of Port Macquarie. I would perform more than ten times yearly before taking a break after school. I have also been recording original works with producer Luke Garfield and am releasing my first official song in April. I have a few other non-official singles from earlier on my Spotify. I am looking to gain more experience in performing at festivals and look forward to hearing from you.

Acoustic Praise and Worship
HOPE RESOUNDS
We are a christian, acoustic, praise and worship artist from Sydney, Australia.

In 2022, Our song ‘Still I Will’ was voted #4 in the top 40 most requested songs on Christian Media Spotlight (USA) end of year countdown. The following year, Our song ‘Every Part of Me’ came in at # 3 and ‘Hope in the Dark’ became the # 1 most requested song of the year among the CMS community. Our music has also been heard and picked up on Christian Media Spotlight Radio Network (USA) , The Aussie Grown Radio Network (AUS) as well as Reds Room Entertainment (USA) where we have performed live on a number of occasions with fellow christian independent artists.

Contemporary Christian Folk
THIRSTY TREE
We are a husband and wife duo (although we use a full band for festivals) – based in the Illawarra, NSW, Australia – writing primarily to share the good news of Jesus through song and well… it makes us happy! Why Thirsty Tree? Well… the book of Psalms in the Bible begins with a beautiful metaphor of a person that is considered blessed, they are ‘like a tree planted by streams of water which yields its fruit in season’ (Psalm 1:3). They are planted deep in God’s word; they ‘delight in the law of the Lord’ (Psalm 1:2). As Christians, our delight is in Christ, he is the Word (John 1:1), our Light (John 8:12) and our Salvation (Rom 10:9-10). He is the one that sustains us (Col 1:17) and through all the blessings of God come (2 Cor 1:20). As we trust in Him, he gives us his Spirit so that we can endure whatever happens in this life knowing with certainty that God is with us and that one day we will live with him forever. We desire to be like thirsty trees, reaching down deep into God’s Word, singing and writing music in thankfulness for all that God has done in sending his Son to lay his life down for ours. We want others to know this good news too!

BIBLE MESSAGE
GRANT WILSON
Grant Wilson and Kate, as well as their three children Zoe, Izzy and Jack, live in Kiama on the beautiful south coast of NSW. Grant is an accredited Baptist minister, who has served in pastoral ministry for just over 20 years, currently as the lead pastor at Kiama Baptist Church. In 2021 Grant suffered a catastrophic accident while riding his mountain bike with his family, resulting in a C4 Spinal Cord Injury (quadriplegia) and lost all feeling and movement from the shoulders down. Grant’s journey from paralysis to learning to walk again is a story of faith, determination and trusting in God’s goodness. Through one of the darkest times in his life, Grant experienced hope, joy and the realisation that God was not finished with him yet. His story will encourage you to see God’s hand at work in your life, even in times of difficulty and despair.
