Bec Matthews playing the Kora (West African harp) and singing the song Storyteller at CresFest 2023 in Victoria.
“Performer Bec Matthews presented an innovative fusion of musical dialects, blending her exquisite indie pop vocal sensibilities with rhythms and melodic strains of West Africa. She enthralled the CresFest audience with her melismatic playing of the Kora and Ngoni, her funky looped vocal textures, and her quirky storytelling style. As both a superb musician and evidently a deeply experienced exponent of West African musical tradition, Bec Matthews brings a personal and distinct voice to a folk festival program, she is not to be missed.”
