Demo: Follow Your Head
ARTISTS + BUSKERS
Since moving to the Byron Bay Hinterland area, I am inundated with the most amazing talent. To support local or travelling artists, if I like their music, I will buy their CD. It’s usually only $10-$20. These artists have no idea that I am doing this, but as I am an artist myself, I only know what it is like when you feel seen.
Here are my hand-picked artists and buskers.
