A watercolour painting of a person with their back to the viewer, walking away, carrying a suitcase in each hand and a guitar on their back, facing a horizon of hills ahead, as if embarking upon a long journey. In the far right corner is a city-scape in the distance, with bright lights. A silhouette of onlookers in the shadows, appears at the bottom of the image.
Lead performer MT wears a white flapper dress with 1920's style white head band, looking at her hands whilst playing piano. On the stage is a guitar and fold-back speaker. The stage is lit with a blue wash and fairy lights dripping down the back wall. An award with laurels consumes the top right corner of the image, with the words - 'ADELAIDE FRINGE WEEKLY AWARD WINNER 2025'
Lead performer MT wears a white top hat with white tuxedo jacket over a 1920's flapper dress, sitting at an upright piano with a microphone, indicating she has been singing. Her head is turned to the left, presumedly towards the audience, whilst her hands remain on the piano, presumedly playing music.

Her Story of the Blues

Erased in History – Amplified in Her Story.

Music of the trailblazing women who pioneered the blues, conceived rock & pop, and were then - promptly forgotten!

Enraged by Erasure and Colonial-Capitalist-Con-Artistry, this One-Woman-Warrior Determines to Dismantle the Dominant narrative that Pedestals white Patriarchy - Revealing the Roots of our Contemporary Cultures, in the Heritage and Hard-Yakka, of these early blues women.

Featuring MT on All Instruments, Curt Comments & Addicted to Alliteration.
