Amber Kenny
Amber Kenny (Gundungurra country) writes from the heart — soaring vocals and honest storytelling shaped on her farm with her Maton guitar. Her 2023 single Run Dry (produced by Nash Chambers) gained national exposure and led to a Nashville debut at the Bluebird Cafe. Amber’s debut album Beautiful Scars (Syd Green & Ben Fink) features Lyn Bowtell and Lloyd Swanton and showcases her layered, emotive songwriting. Expect intimate connection and beautifully crafted songs.
Loki Hines
From Robertson, Loki Hines blends contemporary Americana with indie-folk warmth. After his EP Wildfire and the charting single Running Out Of Time, Loki has won fans across Australia and overseas. He’s shared stages with Kasey & Bill Chambers, Kim Churchill and more, and is completing his debut album with a stellar creative team. His set mixes originals and soulful covers — perfect for a mellow, music-filled launch night.
About a Day Well Spent
A Day Well Spent is Berry’s multi-venue, music-first series of Thursday locals’ nights and Sunday sessions that brings life to the precinct, supports hospitality businesses and creates dependable performance opportunities for musicians. It is part of the Extend the Weekend campaign. There are four music-led weekends planned – 19th & 22nd February (Country), 19th & 22nd March (Jazz & Blues), 21st & 24th May (Indie), and 18th & 21st June (Funk & Soul).
Supported by the NSW Uptown Grant Program – part of a statewide movement to revitalise regional town centres and help extend the weekend to support our hospitality businesses and live musicians and help our visitors live like a local in Berry.
