Emma Donovan & The Putbacks

Supported by Pirritu

Acclaimed Indigenous vocalist Emma Donovan and Melbourne rhythm combo The Putbacks first burst on to the Australian scene with their album Dawn in 2014, announcing a new voice in Australian soul music.

The outfit was born from a love of classic US soul and the protest music of Indigenous Australia. Shades of every soul record you ever liked sneak through. Donovan’s optimistic and bruisingly honest signwriting combined with the band’s fluid, live and raw style makes them one of the most respected and dynamic collaborations in the nation.
