Communion: Melbourne Club Night
Communion was born in the Summer of 2006 at London’s Notting Hill Arts Club. Founded by Ben Lovett (Mumford & Sons), Kev Jones (Bear's Den) and producer Ian Grimble. It quickly grew into a community of musicians and fans, providing a platform for the best new artists.
Working collaboratively with the team in London, I brought the popular night to the Toff In Town in Melbourne in 2012, ushering in a 2 year period of showcasing some of Australia’s best new talent and international guests.
The night featured a different lineup of 4-6 artists each month offering a creative platform for emerging, developing and established artists to perform in an environment that embraced collaboration and mutual support.

If I was going to organise a live show, then you can guarantee I was always going to shoot it too.
