Two voices, one heart

Three-time Golden Guitar winning folk-country duo Felicity Urquhart and Josh Cunningham (of The Waifs) are headed to Footscray.

Raw, real and ridiculously good, the music born of this unique pairing has been described as “folksy country” but in truth, it cannot be contained within a simple genre description.

The highly recognisable guitar work of Josh Cunningham has been a defining element to the sound of iconic Australian band The Waifs for over three decades, whilst over the same time span, Felicity Urquhart developed a voice and style that took her to the pinnacle of Australian country music.

Not content to stay in their ‘folk rock royalty’ or ‘queen of country’ lanes, the couple simply make the music of their hearts, creating the category defying sound that inspires joy and stirs the soul. Already ARIA-nominated (The Song Club) and three times Golden Guitar winners (Birdsong), these legends aren’t resting on their laurels – they’re writing the next chapter.

Catch fresh tracks from their upcoming album, plus the songs you already love as you join them on a musical journey that’s fiery and full of heart, where past and present harmonise, and every note tells a story.

The duo will be supported by Flynn Gurry. Hailing from Warrnambool, Gurry has been making massive waves in the Australian music scene. In 2025 so far, he’s toured nationally with Pierce Brothers, been named Port Fairy Folk Festival’s ‘Emerging Artist of the Year,’ and supported The Dreggs, Kim Churchill, The 502s, and DICE.

Felicity Urquhart and Josh Cunningham with special guest, Flynn Gurry, will perform at the Kindred Bandroom, Footscray, on Friday 31 October.
