Our beloved Nowa Nowa Hall has been chosen as one of only 17 venues across Victoria and New South Wales to host the renowned Festival of Small Halls Australia. This is yet another step in establishing Nowa Nowa as a destination for niche music events, attracting high-quality performers and unique experiences to our town.

With limited capacity at Nowa Nowa Hall, tickets are expected to sell out quickly.

We strongly encourage attendees to book in advance, as door tickets may not be available on the night.

TRAV COLLINS is an Adelaide based singer- songwriter/ multi-instrumentalist. He has been playing shows and street performing all over the country since 2016. Trav plays a 12 string acoustic guitar plugged into an array of effects pedals and a tube amp which he creates unique roots/ folk style cinematic soundscapes with. The didgeridoo, banjo, harmonica and lap steel guitar also make appearances during his live set making his sound very expansive for a single person on stage. His lyrics and stories are from experiences in his life both beautiful and heartbreaking, his vocals reflect tones of sincerity and truth in each word. Trav is currently releasing singles every so often with the latest being “Shoes”.  

CHRIS CAVILL is more than just a singer/songwriter; he’s a storyteller, weaving tales of love, loss, and profound gratitude for family. With a writing style that is refreshingly honest, Chris captivates audiences with his heartfelt compositions that resonate deeply with listeners.

Having honed his craft over many years, Chris has emerged as a seasoned musician whose recent achievements mark the pinnacle of his career. In the past 12 months alone he has graced prestigious stages, including appearances at the Yackandandah Folk Festival, Cygnet Folk Festival, Goodness Me Festival, and Penola Music Gathering. Notably, Chris had the honour of supporting acclaimed artist Kim Churchill, a collaboration that further solidified his standing in the folk music scene.

This will be Chris’ second time playing at Nowa Nowa Hall and we cant wait to have him back!
