Expect music that is distinct and sincerely delivered from Ainslie Wills, bold vocals and beautiful guitar tones from Angie McMahon and strong lyrics paired with high calibre vocal ability from Gretta Ray. Better still, 5 per cent of proceeds will be donated to charity in loving memory of Scott Hutchison (Frightened Rabbit).
