About Love Local
With the new, stricter COVID-19 measures in place, it can be hard to know how we can support our local businesses, while staying safe.
Council is pleased to present Love Local Live - Series 2 in partnership with Fusion Boutique, Shelter Studios and Inertia Photography.
Due to the overwhelming popularity of our first series, five new sessions of Love Local Live will be live streamed from Council’s Facebook page on Thursday nights from 7.30pm–8.30pm, starting on 15 October 2020.
Once again, we’ll bring fabulous live, local music to wherever you are, while supporting local businesses and creatives. Make sure you tune in each week as we showcase some of the Blue Mountains’ best local talents.

Love Local Live is part of our Love Local campaign, and is one small way we are supporting our local business and creative communities, many of whom have been hit particularly hard during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Piccolo Bear are a duo from the Blue Mountains. Their unique sound blends dark and sweet harmonies with banjo, ukulele and guitar. They have just returned home from playing shows in Italy and Vancouver, where they were based last year.
Blue Sherlock are Willem and Jeremy. Both Blue Mountains locals and professional musicians, they are currently recording their second original EP. Drawing inspiration from a collision of musical influences from Tash Sultana to Hozier, they draw no genre boundaries and use live looping to create luscious vibes and moody textures.
Witches Leap ripple with the darkness of the uilleann pipes and Irish flute. Backed with progressive bouzouki and guitar, they take the pathos and feistiness of Irish music and reinterpret it with originality arisen from local mythology. Instrumentals composed by Jade, Leigh and Paddy give way to folk-punk inspired ballads.
Growing up in the Blue Mountains, Dee gained a hefty YouTube following throughout her teenage years under her old pseudonym, which brought opportunities of international touring and collaboration, crowd sourced projects and caught the eye of major players in the industry including SONY. As a largely self-taught and immensely passionate soul/jazz/folk musician, Dee opens the door to a sense of freedom as she comes into a new chapter of her performing life.
Standing at 4’11 and half, with steel lungs, an infectious laughs and a totally DIY kitted out school bus as a house, Dee is known for her raw lyricism and relatable energy.
Built from heartbreak, forged on love, Eagle & The Wolf bring open hearts, great songs and the truth to the stage.
Sarah Humphreys and Kristen Lee Morris met and decided to make a life and music together as Eagle & The Wolf.
Sarah has spent the last ten years opening her heart as she has grown into a woman, a mother and undoubtedly one of this country’s finest singers and songwriters. Kris is forging a reputation as one of Australia’s finest, and most honest, country & blues musicians.
“Two of Australia’s finest singer-songwriters, indie-pop goddess Sarah Humphreys and alt-country troubadour Kris Morris, met, fell in love and now they’re making beautiful folk music together as Eagle & The Wolf.” – Timber & Steel
