The Ocelots w/ Emily Jane Pritchard
Friday 6 February, 7:30 pm
The Shed Theatre, The Pig and Whistle, Main Ridge
Irish twins The Ocelots return to Australia for their third tour in Jan–March 2026 and take in MOTH on Friday 6 February.
Known for blood harmonies, indie-folk charm, and hilarious stage banter, they’ll play songs from their recent album Everything, When Said Slowly.
‘Rich in spellbinding harmonies, The Ocelots second album, Everything, When Said Slowly, takes indie-folk in a compelling new direction. Overall, an impressively honest and poignant piece of work.’ – Hot Press
Mornington Peninsula–based indie-folk artist Emily Jane Pritchard delivers arresting vulnerability and effortless charm through bluesy guitar and storytelling steeped in authenticity. A Maldon Folk Festival favourite and Roddy Read Songwriting Award winner, she brings a heart-on-sleeve honesty and a voice that drifts from heartachingly sweet to ruggedly raw—drawing quiet comparisons to Julia Jacklin and Joni Mitchell.

Didirri w/ Liv Cartledge
Friday 6 March, 7:30 pm
The Shed Theatre, The Pig and Whistle, Main Ridge
MOTH favourite Didirri returns in March. The Australian singer-songwriter known for his quietly devastating voice, intimate storytelling, and emotionally precise songwriting. Blending indie-folk and understated rock, his songs sit in the space between vulnerability and restraint, often exploring grief, connection, and the small moments that shape us.
Equally at home on stage or in the studio, Didirri’s work is marked by honesty, warmth, and a deep respect for the emotional weight a song can carry.
Born and bred in Victoria’s High Country. Liv Cartledge is a singer-songwriter with a voice that growls and soars, she cuts through the noise. With raw, unfiltered storytelling – gritty, gut-punching reflections on home, loss, love, and grinning through the chaos – steeped in the warm, textured sounds of folk rock Australiana.

Pony Face presents Nebraska
Friday 3 April (Good Friday), 7:30 pm
The Shed Theatre, The Pig and Whistle, Main Ridge
For the first time in ten years, Pony Face will revisit Nebraska – the iconic, lo-fi album made famous by Bruce Springsteen.
In 2014, Pony Face released their version of Nebraska, selling out club venues and festivals with their reimagining of Bruce Springsteen’s classic lo-fi, American Gothic album. Nebraska not only validated the power of bedroom recordings but also went on to inspire artists like Beck, The National, Sufjan Stevens, and Bon Iver. Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska remains one of the most stark, haunting, and critically acclaimed albums in his discography.
Long time collaborator, producer Casey Rice (Tortoise, The Dirty Three), was brought on board to co-produce the demo format album, which was pieced together over six months in bedrooms and studios across Melbourne.
Pony Face’s Nebraska is a calculated, meditative reimagining of Springsteen’s towering masterpiece, taking the record down a path his band wouldn’t, couldn’t have travelled. Stevie Van Zandt, when urging Springsteen to release Nebraska as is, surmised that “the fact that you didn’t intend to release it makes it the most intimate record you’ll ever do.
This is an absolutely legitimate piece of art. ‘Now, with forty two years of contemplation of that statement, Pony Face presents Nebraska.
