Eishan Ensemble returns in 2026 with a powerful national tour celebrating their 10th anniversary.

ARIA Award-winning tabla virtuoso Bobby Singh is coming to Sydney to promote his extraordinary new album Sutradhaar - a deeply collaborative and cross-cultural musical journey featuring some of Australia’s finest musicians and composed by his guru, Dr Aneesh Pradhan. Meaning ‘string-holder’ or ‘narrator’ in Sanskrit, Sutradhaar’s compositions were written by Dr Aneesh Pradhan and arranged Sydney-based jazz icon, Sandy Evans, before being recorded and woven together into a rich, genre-defying suite of music by a family of extraordinary musicians including Jeff Lang, Greg Sheehan, Lara Goodridge, Shenzo Gregorio, Ben Walsh, Zela Margossian and Tjupurru. The result is an album that transcends genre and geography, bridging Indian classical traditions, jazz, and blues, grounded by the deep resonance of Australian soil through the inclusion of the didgeribone.

Enda Kenny won many hearts at last year’s Dorrigo Folk Festival, and we’re delighted to welcome him back to Wauchope Arts.
A gifted singer-songwriter and captivating storyteller, Enda has a rare ability to weave songs and stories together with warmth, humour and insight. In 2025 he enjoyed his busiest year since the 1990s, headlining across the UK on his 30th Anniversary Tour. Highlights included nine shows at Whitby Folk Week and main stage appearances at Warwick, Stainsby and Bromyard festivals.
Described by The Sydney Morning Herald as “Australia’s best folksinger” and by Folk on Tap in the UK as “a cracking live act”, Enda is known for performances that are as entertaining as they are heartfelt. His shows are filled with laughter, memorable melodies and plenty of opportunities for audiences to sing along.
It’s no surprise he continues to pack theatres and festival venues wherever he travels.
