Adelaide Fringe Frusic Focus: Phia

"I developed my show the last few years living in Berlin; I loop layers of kalimba and vocal percussion, then sing my songs."

Answered by: Sophia Exiner

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Kaleidoscopic handmade indie pop.

Will you do a different show at Fringe or what you'd normally do at regular gig? I developed my show the last few years living in Berlin; I loop layers of kalimba and vocal percussion, then sing my songs. For Fringe my guitarist Josh will add beautiful melodies and textures also.

Reckon you'll head out on the Frusic walking trail (taking in iconic music spots of Adelaide)? Absolutely. It's our first time performing in Adelaide and we're there for the week so can't wait to get out and see some live music.

Why should people come and see your show? I bet you haven't seen danceable pop music created with the African kalimba and a loop pedal before!

When and where is your Fringe show? 25 Feb, 2 & 3 Mar at The Grace Emily Hotel, 8pm.
