Singer songwriter session at The Entrance

Ruby Shay, Micelle Murrell and Suz Dorahy

After a sold-out launch event in June, Central Coast Acoustic Songwriter Sessions has announced tickets to the August event are now on sale.

The Entrance Lake House is hosting the bi-monthly singer/songwriter night showcasing local upcoming musicians and the stories behind their original songs.

Supported by community radio station Coast FM and organised by local musicians, Michelle Murrell and Meagan Jane, each event will showcase three different songwriters from the Coast and surrounding areas in an intimate dinner and show setting.

The next event will be on August 25 starting at 6.30pm, featuring Ruby Shay, Micelle Murrell and Suz Dorahy.

Shay is a Central Coast singer, songwriter and cover artist who writes well-structured, meaningful songs which draw the listener into a world of love, heartbreak, loss, self-exploration and humility.

As a cover artist, Shay has a diverse repertoire that will please audience members of all ages.

Michelle Murrell is an alternate country singer/songwriter also from the Central Coast.

Murrell has a unique and distinctive vocal sound, showcasing a country folk twang mixed with a heavily influenced ‘90s grunge upbringing.

Often joined by her musician husband James on percussion, Murrell’s original mixture of melodic vocals, rhythmic guitar and well-crafted song writing is a journey audience members will remember.

Suz Dorahy has emerged as a singer songwriter of remarkable strength and presence and in her music, you will hear the influence of artists and styles that have influenced her including Sheryl Crow, Lucinda Williams, Joni Mitchell and Fleetwood Mac.

Dorahy is an authentic and nuanced singer and songwriter who grew up on the Central Coast, learning classical guitar as a nine-year-old, playing music into her 20s until an athletics career took over.

She rediscovered her passion for music after travelling to Tamworth to play with the Wayward Henrys which led her on her songwriting journey.
