			<description><![CDATA[<p>"It's either your first Woodford or your hundredth Woodford. I think that’s how it works."</p><p>This episode was recorded live from the Woodford Folk Festival as part of First Wine of the Day. It's New Year's Day, the final show, and the ironed-on Woodfordians are the only ones left standing. Harley missed the three minutes of silence after “overestimating his New Year’s Eve resilience.” Nikki spent hers at the pond thinking about her dog. Bars manager Linus turns up running on fumes but still manages to school everyone on Sauvignon Blanc. Business as usual.</p><p>The astrologer said we're heading into seven of the greatest years ever to unfold on planet Earth. The Forest of Goodwill campaign is well underway, with the community steadily working toward its 5.7 million dollar goal. And somewhere under the AmphiGrande sign, there may or may not be buried treasure — courtesy of comedian Shad Wicka, who also reads the most heartfelt, hilarious love letter to Woodford you'll hear all year. Thea Newton pulls back the curtain on the Great Band Competition — 68 musicians, 15 randomly assembled bands, 24 hours to make something extraordinary. Holly Austin makes a live pitch for Kite Choir, an international peace project involving 200 kites, children's voices from around the world, and a sky full of sound. And Sunshine Coast brothers Frank and Louis, aged 17 and 19, close out the entire series with a song that makes Harley wish his kids were watching.</p><p>This episode is for:</p><ul><li>Anyone who's ever been converted to something they didn't think they wanted to go to</li><li>People who believe the world is about to get a lot better — cosmically speaking</li><li>Anyone who knows that the last day of a festival belongs to a very special kind of human</li></ul><p>Dive in to hear about:</p><ul><li>Shad Wicka's letter to Woodford — from cult sceptic to true believer in five days</li><li>What Puglia, Italy has in common with the whole of Australia — a wine fact that will surprise you</li><li>How 68 strangers became 15 bands in 24 hours at the Great Band Competition</li></ul><p>To come to the Woodford Folk Festival and FWOD next year visit:<a href="https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/</a></p><br><p>FOR MORE:</p><p>Frank &amp; Louis:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/frankandlouismusic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/frankandlouismusic</a></p><p>Holly Austin:<a href="https://www.kitechoir.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="https://www.hollyaustin.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.hollyaustin.net</a></p><p>Shad Wicka:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/wickedshad" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/wickedshad</a></p><p>Harley Breen:<a href="https://www.harleybreen.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.harleybreen.com.au</a></p><p>Nikki Britton:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/thenikkibritton" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/thenikkibritton</a></p><p>A Forest of Goodwill: <a href="https://aforestofgoodwill.woodfordia.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://aforestofgoodwill.woodfordia.com</a></p><br><p>CREDITS:</p><p>Hosts: Harley Breen, Nikki Britton</p><p>Guests: Shad Wicka, Thea Newton, Holly Austin, Frank &amp; Louis, Linus Wilson</p><p>Producer: Bree Hickson-Jamieson</p><p>Executive Producers: Benny Wallington, Georgia Shaw</p><p>Artwork: Hannah Rose</p><p>Social Media: Eliza Cowan</p><p>Assistant: Madeline Corcoran</p><p>Camera Operators: Amelie Barham, Ben 'Tofty' Toft</p><p>Editing: Amelie Barham</p><p>Music by: The East Pointers</p><p>Recorded on Jinibara Country</p><p>#RadioWoodfordia #FrankAndLouie #ShadWicka #HollyAustin #WoodfordFolkFestival #HarleyBreen #NikkiBritton #LivePodcast #Woodfordia #NewYearsDay #FolkMusic #LiveMusic #Comedy</p><p>Join the Woodfordian Citizens:</p><br><p>Perks -</p><br><p>- Bi-Monthly emails sharing the ins and outs of the world of Woodfordia and the people who keep the heart beating. </p><p>- Special invites to special events on site at Woodfordia.

And the Mast Gully Fellers close out day five with two songs about pubs, gold miners, and the eternal Australian pursuit of a cold drink after six o'clock.</p><p>This episode is for:</p><ul><li>Anyone who's ever loved a place so much it changes the way they move through the world</li><li>People who spent COVID lockdown making questionable plans and even more questionable decisions</li><li>Anyone knows someone who’s been kicked out of a pub and still thinks they were in the right</li></ul><p>Dive in to hear about:</p><ul><li>Why Kate Miller-Heidke and Keir Nuttall have been coming to Woodford since they were teenagers — and why they met here, fell for each other here, and keep coming back</li><li>The apocalypse survival song Kate and Keir wrote during Melbourne's 100-day lockdown — and the people they'd need in their corner</li><li>Leonard Breen's New Year's resolution: less girlfriends, more dirt bikes</li></ul><p>To come to the Woodford Folk Festival and FWOD next year visit:<a href="https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/</a></p><p>FOR MORE:&nbsp;</p><p>Kate Miller-Heidke:<a href="https://www.katemillerheidke.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.katemillerheidke.com</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Keir Nuttall:<a href="https://www.keirnuttall.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.keirnuttall.com&nbsp;</a></p><p>Mast Gully Fellas:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/mastgullyfellers" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/mastgullyfellers</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Harley Breen:<a href="https://www.harleybreen.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.harleybreen.com.au</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Nikki Britton:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/thenikkibritton" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/thenikkibritton</a></p><p>CREDITS:&nbsp;</p><p>Hosts: Harley Breen, Nikki Britton </p><p>Guests: Kate Miller-Heidke, Keir Nuttall, Mast Gully Fellers, Linus Wilson, Leonard Breen </p><p>Producer: Bree Hickson-Jamieson </p><p>Executive Producers: Benny Wallington, Georgia Shaw </p><p>Artwork: Hannah Rose </p><p>Social Media: Eliza Cowan </p><p>Assistant: Madeline Corcoran </p><p>Camera Operators: Amelie Barham, Ben 'Tofty' Toft </p><p>Editing: Amelie Barham </p><p>Music by: The East Pointers </p><p>Recorded on Jinibara Country</p><p>#RadioWoodfordia #KateMiller-Heidke #KeirNuttall #MastGullyFellers #WoodfordFolkFestival #HarleyBreen #NikkiBritton #LivePodcast #Woodfordia #NewYearsEve #FolkMusic #LiveMusic #Comedy #OrangeWine</p><br><p>Join the Woodfordian Citizens:</p><br><p>Perks -</p><br><p>- Bi-Monthly emails sharing the ins and outs of the world of Woodfordia and the people who keep the heart beating. </p><p>- Special invites to special events on site at Woodfordia.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>"Why can't we just live at Woodfordia? And why isn't this just how we all live?"</p><br><p>In this episode, Harley sits down with Katie Noonan. It's Katie's 30th year at Woodford, and she's just finished her 30th studio album - serendipitous!&nbsp;</p><p>Katie's Woodford journey started in 1995 when she won the Woodford band competition (prize: a ticket to next year's festival).

It's Katie's 30th year at Woodford, and she's just finished her 30th studio album - serendipitous!&nbsp;</p><p>Katie's Woodford journey started in 1995 when she won the Woodford band competition (prize: a ticket to next year's festival).

But that transient lifestyle was embedded in his DNA – the Métis people were always the storytellers, carrying songs and poems from community to community.</p><br><p>The conversation moves between the profound and the practical, from raising five kids (aged 17 to 3) without screens dominating their lives, to the trapping industry keeping remote communities alive, to why we all need to feel our insignificance in nature.</p><br><p>Joe explains why Woodford showed him the consciousness level of all Australians, how technology is changing the valley he once knew, and why he makes music.</p><br><p><strong>This episode is for:</strong></p><ul><li>Anyone who needs reminding that we're magnificently insignificant</li><li>People interested in Indigenous culture, storytelling traditions, and how communities preserve identity</li><li>Parents navigating the wilderness of raising teenagers in the digital age</li><li>Musicians and artists wondering if following their frequency is actually a viable life choice</li><li><br></li></ul><p><strong>Dive in to hear about why:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Feeling small in nature might be the most important thing we can do</li><li>Woodford just might be proof of who we all can be in the "real world"</li><li>Sometimes the best parenting advice is "be water" and ALSO know your kid's best friend's parents</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Keen to come to Woodford:</strong> <a href="https://www.woodfordfolkfestival.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.woodfordfolkfestival.com</a></p><br><p><strong>For more Joe H.

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Excuse the microphones at the start. Small Malfunctions, appreciate your patience.</p><br><p><strong>"My passion is the environment, and plants and the animals and everything. So each venue (at the children's festival) has a different feel to it, and I place artists in the space that match that feel."</strong></p><br><p>In this episode, Harley sits down with Becky Wandell, who's been running the Children's Festival (now Tin Lids) for 34 years, and Kate Day, a storyteller who first performed at the festival when she was 19 and is returning this year.</p><br><p>Becky's journey started in the Burnett River Folk Club in Bundaberg in the 1980s, where she and a group of friends created a space for people who didn't quite fit anywhere else. That germ of an idea grew through the magical mystery tours and folk festivals, eventually becoming what we now know as Woodford Folk Festival.</p><br><p>She's been there since the very beginning, working from the bottom up literally cleaning toilets at Maleny before helping to shape what the Children's Festival has become.</p><p>Kate represents everything the festival nurtures. A theatre student with dreams of changing the world through art, she walked into Woodford as a young performer and found a community that believed in her storytelling when she didn't yet believe in herself. Now, she's a public servant and teacher who return to remember she's an artist at heart.</p><br><p>The conversation gets beautifully personal about mentorship, legacy, and what it means to see potential in people before they see it in themselves. Harley and Becky reflect on the importance of people who sit behind the scenes, the facilitators who recognise talent and create the conditions for it to flourish. They explore the structure of the eight-venue children's program, the magic of creating spaces where kids feel genuinely respected, and why Professor Wallace's return to do Punch and Judy is such a big deal.</p><br><p><strong>This episode is for:</strong></p><ul><li>Anyone curious about what goes on in the Children's Festival and why it's unlike anything</li><li>People interested in mentorship, legacy, and how communities nurture artists</li><li>Parents wondering if Woodford is for families</li><li>Performers considering getting involved in kids entertainment</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Dive in to hear about why:</strong></p><ul><li>The Children's Festival is structured chaos, eight venues all with different feels, each place strategically curated</li><li>Sometimes the best moments happen when someone believes in you before you believe in yourself</li><li>Kids are brutally honest critics who can smell inauthenticity from a mile away</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Keen to bring your kids to Woodford—<a href="https://www.woodfordfolkfestival.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.woodfordfolkfestival.com</strong></a></p><p><strong>Learn more about Tin Lids Kids: </strong><a href="https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/programme?genres=TinLids" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/programme?genres=TinLids</strong></a></p><p><strong>FOR MORE: Harley Breen: </strong><a href="https://www.harleybreen.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.harleybreen.com.au/</strong></a></p><p><strong>CREDITS: </strong></p><p><strong>Host: Harley Breen </strong></p><p><strong>Guests: Becky Wandell &amp; Kate Day </strong></p><p><strong>Producer: Benny Wallington </strong></p><p><strong>Executive Producers: Cameron Scurrah &amp; Bree Hickson-Jamieson </strong></p><p><strong>Video Editing: Nicholas Haddow </strong></p><p><strong>Audio mastering: Kieron Atkinson </strong></p><p><strong>Music by: The East Pointers </strong></p><p><strong>Recorded on Jinibara Country</strong></p><br><p><strong>#RadioWoodfordia #WoodfordFolkFestival #TinLids #ChildrensFestival #FestivalLife </strong></p><p>Join the Woodfordian Citizens:</p><br><p>Perks -</p><br><p>- Bi-Monthly emails sharing the ins and outs of the world of Woodfordia and the people who keep the heart beating. </p><p>- Special invites to special events on site at Woodfordia.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>"It's not their dream to be a touring musician because they're working hard on their farm, but there's so much soul and heart in their music and those stories are incredible."</strong></p><br><p>In this episode, Harley sits down with Izzy Bartlett, the producer of Festival of Small Halls, Woodfordia's regional touring project bringing world-class artists to some of Australia's most remote communities.</p><br><p>Izzy's first Woodford was in her mum's belly, so she's a genuine Woodford baby, one of many who grew up in the Chai Tent, made lifelong friendships, and eventually found her way into making Woodford's magic happen behind the scenes.</p><br><p>From her family's connection to the Toowoomba orchestra to having a hand in the producing of 47 touring shows across 13 years of regional Australia, Izzy's work is about far more than just bringing acts on the road. It's about access, community resilience, and the radical idea that people in towns of 500 or 5,000 deserve world-class art just as much as city dwellers.</p><br><p>The conversation gets real about funding, regional touring costs, and why government support for arts isn't a luxury—it's essential infrastructure.

			<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>"You could make a clarinet out of a carrot and a bagpipe from rubber gloves...

Fast forward to earlier this year and Tessa opened for Rhi at her show in Brisbane. </p><br><p>The three dive into the beauty of mentorship over competition, why Melbourne isn't the only place for great music (Queensland punches way above its weight), the economics of being an artist in 2025, and how community support is the only thing keeping the whole creative ecosystem alive. </p><br><p>Rhi shares why she's taking a break to figure out music's role in her life, Tessa drops some massive news about Berlin and upcoming releases, and they both talk about a curious Q&amp;A format on stage that breaks down the fourth wall and builds real connection with artists and their audience. </p><br><p>Also: horny songs, hot water bottle sausage dogs, the Woodford Lettering House, and why short toilet lines are an underrated festival flex.</p><br><p><strong>Dive in to hear about why:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Putting out Instagram callouts for support acts can build genuine community.</li><li>Queensland artists work their butts off to prove themselves to Sydney and Melbourne and it shows.</li><li>Mentorship goes both ways.</li><li>Taking breaks from the hustle isn't weakness.</li><li>Volunteering backstage at festivals can literally change your career trajectory.</li><li>Community over competition isn't just a nice phrase, it's how artists survive.</li><li>Mum's love coming to Woodford</li></ul><p><br></p><p>FOR MORE:</p><p>Merpire: <a href="https://www.merpiremusic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.merpiremusic.com/</a></p><p>Tessa Fleur:  <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tessa__fleur" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/tessa__fleur</a></p><p>Harley: <a href="https://www.harleybreen.com.au/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.harleybreen.com.au/</a></p><p>Come to the Woodford Folk Festival: <a href="http://www.woodfordfolkfestival.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.woodfordfolkfestival.com</a></p><br><p>CREDITS: </p><br><p>Host: Harley Breen </p><p>Guests: Rhiannon Atkinson-Howatt (Merpire) &amp; Tessa Fleur </p><p>Producer: Benny Wallington </p><p>Executive Producers: Cameron Scurrah &amp; Bree Hickson-Jameison </p><p>Video Production: Coeur Visual </p><p>Audio mastering: Kieron Atkinson </p><p>Music by: The East Pointers</p><br><p>#RadioWoodfordia #WoodfordFolkFestival #Merpire #TessaFleur #QueenslandMusic #MusicCommunity #ArtistMentorship #BrisbaneMusic #HarleyBreen #FestivalConnections #Woodfordia #SupportLocalArtists #IndieMusic</p><p>Join the Woodfordian Citizens:</p><br><p>Perks -</p><br><p>- Bi-Monthly emails sharing the ins and outs of the world of Woodfordia and the people who keep the heart beating. </p><p>- Special invites to special events on site at Woodfordia.
