A strong community ethos that provides a safe space for a range of marginalised communities and creatives, FLOW Festival returns to Melbourne next month with a line-up headlined by Emma Donovan & The Putbacks and Mildlife.
After its debut event in 2019, the family friendly showcase of hip hop, R&B, jazz and everything soulful will be staged at Footscray Community Arts Centre on 27 November.Joining Emma Donovan & The Putbacks and Wildlife (who both received ARIA Award nominations last week) is a collection of artists that 'fuses the old and the new, encouraging fresh creative connections in an environment that celebrates the vitality of POC artists and ensures gender equality'.
Brown Sugar Princess, C.FRIM, Dallas Woods, Fly Boy Jack, Kee'ahn, Kgomotso, Selena, Shio, DJ Smilez, The Tony Allen Experience and Trad Ukiyo will all play 2021 FLOW Festival.
"It's been a minute! So hyped to be back on the old decks after a long lockdown hiatus. Get your tix for Flow now," C.FRIM shared on her socials.
With tunes buzzing and drinks flowing, you can expect a selection of soul foods being served up.
"Playing and experiencing FLOW was unquestionably one of my highlights of 2019," Skomes of SO.Crates says.
"The Foreign Brothers team put together a day that simultaneously had the intimacy and community of an organic grassroots event as well as the high production values and professionalism of a commercial festival.
"Community engagement and participation were key to crafting this and I thank them deeply for doing so."
