Heralding from a sold-out final concert from 2017, Friends of Music Series return in 2018 with a stellar lineup of top Melbourne emerging musicians, boasting from a variety of styles ranging from classical, folk to jazz and contemporary performances.
In October, Collaboration Connection returns to present folk-jazz chamber ensemble, Gemma Tully & The Thornbirds.
About the Artists
Folk-jazz-chamber ensemble Gemma Tully & The Thornbirds play contemporary original music. Luscious vocal harmonies, guitar and double bass combine to create a truly fresh and unique sound. The music moves fluidly between song form and improvisation, as well-crafted melodies illuminate charming lyrics. GT & The Thornbirds features four of Melbourne’s most generous spirited improvising musicians: Max West (electric and acoustic guitars), Daniel Beinke (double bass), Bianca Kyriacou (voice), and Gemma Tully (voice). Years of friendship have cultivated a sense of sensitivity and compassion between the musicians as they playfully interpret and re-interpret Gemma’s songs.

About the 2018 FOMS
Concerts at St. George's proudly presents the 2018 FOMS, showcasing top Melbourne emerging musicians!
Concerts at St. George's is voluntarily managed by a team of musicians with the vision to establish St. George’s Anglican Church in Travancore as a new music performance venue in Melbourne’s inner northwest. Aligned with this vision is the annual Friends of Music Series (FOMS), showcasing top Melbourne emerging musicians.
Your support for the local arts scene will be tremendously appreciated, with all proceeds from the 2017 FOMS concerts directly contributing to further enhancing the performance space at St. George's. The proceeds will also speak volumes for continuing the fundraising spirit for the Moonee Valley City community, and for continuing the vision for quality, affordable concert-going experiences for the local communities.
