Deborah Conway

Sunday 6 October

There is not much you can say about the creative output of Deborah Conway & Willy Zygier that hasn’t already been said:

“Blessed with an angelic voice, deft at lyrical wordplay and armed with a seemingly inexhaustive melody well, Conway – and partner Zygier – create songs which become best friends for life.” Daily Telegraph

“If Bob Dylan or Leonard Cohen delivered an album with songs as good as these, the critical response would be rapturous. Conway and Zygier deserve no less.” Courier Mail

“Some of the most engaging songs I’ve ever heard from Deborah & Willy. Some of the music makes the little hairs on my neck and arms stand at attention. That doesn’t happen often.” Bill Riner, Network, Music Programmer, ABC

“Conway and Zygier seem to have enveloped an intimate, down-home, folk-blues sound that’s deeply relatable. The songs tend to wrap around you, like a favourite throw, or big, old jumper does, as you curl-up on the couch with your favourite melancholic thoughts.” J-Wire

“If there was ever an Australian act that could be said to have maintained professional integrity alongside lyrical honesty in the wake of mainstream commercial popularity, Deborah Conway is easily that artist.” Faster Louder


Deborah Conway is appearing on the Big Skies stage with thanks to our Major Partner Shell QGC.
