William Crighton on pioneering his “bush psych” sound, creating “worlds in verses” with his wife and creative partner Jules, the enduring legacy of his friend/mentor Rob Hirst, and learning to live in harmony with nature.

“Once you start writing from your heart properly, the songs start to give you your voice.”

"An abundance of talent and great taste in covers and original material made for an entertaining night of American music."

'Working with people who support what’s happening creatively and who share vision and values is important to me.'

"We are excited to give so many Australian musicians the opportunity to perform before international artists of the highest calibre."

Talent from across the globe.

Mullum Music Festival’s Youth Mentorship Program returns in 2018 for its ninth year. It pairs up young emerging artists with established artists on the festival line-up, for some one-on-one time rehearsing, performing and just talking. This year the mentors helping to encourage the emerging talent are Husky, Lior, Shelly Brown and William Crighton. Here, we got them to share with us one piece of advice they got themselves in their careers from a mentor that they've carried through to this day.

"Making this clip was a very spontaneous process..."

The best way to kick off the 2018 Mullum Music Festival!

"This year's mentors are all exceptional artists who have an invaluable wealth of performance and industry experience to share with their category winners."
