Benedict Moleta returns to Smith's for a special duo show with his long-term pianist collaborator Julian Bolleter, visiting from Western Australia.
The show will be opened by sets from special guests Abi Main and Zoe and Sophia Santagostino-Baldi.
Abi Main creates emotional pop with insightfully raw lyrics, infectious melodies and delicately produced musical worlds.
Zoe and Sophia Santagostino-Baldi played an impressive set at the Hecate's Daughters show, at Smith's earlier in 2026. The sisters will open this show with their sophisticated vocal harmonies and great songs.
Benedict's latest album, Walking Along in the Sun was released in 2025, available on:

"Moleta has quite a unique style of delivering his lyrics – the vocals so clear, honest and unpretentious, it can make for quite an uplifting experience." The Drum Media
"I think of Moleta as a hero, the way he continuously works with different musicians... to craft albums that are warm and genuine, moments that merge with your own memories." life is noise
