Communion: Melbourne Club Night
Born out of London’s indie-folk movement in 2006, Communion became a gathering for artists built on collaboration and support. When I helped shape its Australian chapter years later, the goal was simple—pair local talent with kindred international acts, creating nights that felt less like gigs and more like shared discovery and connection.

SPOTIFY PLAYLIST
MARKETING
In addition to handling live promotion duties, I also took on all local marketing activities including writing press releases, managing social media, website design and on the street bill posting.
LIVE PHOTOGRAPHY
If I was going to organise a live show, then you can guarantee I was always going to shoot it too.
