Like the best of them, singer-songwriter Ali Barter is a classically trained choir girl turned rambler and rat bag. Her cleverly crafted lyrics and delicate harmonies have made songs like ‘Girlie Bits’ and ‘Please Stay’ radio faves. With a voice that’s sweet, but laden with attitude, she’ll perform an intimate solo set at The Rails.

Folk roots singer/songwriter Kate Harder has great songs, great stage presence and a great work ethic. She has teamed up with some of Alice Springs best musicians to create the Artful Dodgers and together this group bring you melodies you’ll be singing all day delivered with conviction, warmth and dash of Aussie humour. Katie and band will also be releasing their latest single "Jesse" on the nights!!
