Maja's Littlefoot Residency w/support Joyce Prescher

Littlefoot Bar, 223 Barkly Street, Footscray

Maja plays Littlefoot for the first three Thursdays in February joined by some VERY special guests.

One of our favourites, Serbian-born singer-songwriter Maja is gaining quite a reputation for her eccentric character and glittering performances. Thought- provoking and deeply-personal, the songs are vulnerable and relatable, displaying a depth and maturity far beyond her age. Looking to the past for inspiration, her songs possess a sound quality and nostalgia that her audiences know so well, echoing soul, blues and folk music. Her diverse ranges of styles come to highlight her fierce vocal performance and direct song-writing style, channelling the likes of Otis Redding, Clairy Browne and the Banging Rackettes, Laura Marling and Fiona Apple.

Joining her for her final show of her residency will be Dutch-born folk artist based Joyce Prescher. She manages to capture audiences with her poetic lyrics, haunting melodies and a voice that gets under your skin. Joyce released her debut album 'Home' in July 2017, which was well received and was listed in PBS' Top 10 albums of the week. On the debut album she meditates on the hardship of living away from home, identity, love and death. Inspired by the great singer-songwriters of our time, her sound tells of her love of folk music, with hints of alt-country and Americana. Her songs are made to listen to whilst wrapped in a warm blanket, in front of a fireplace, with a glass of red in your hand.
