A Sense of Nature

We are stardust

We are golden

And we've got to get ourselves

Back to the garden

Joni Mitchell’s call to action in her iconic song Woodstock sets the tone for this captivating new cabaret performed by local singer-songwriters, Jennifer Trijo and Emma Knights. Drawing on much-loved covers and stunning originals, these two gifted songbirds encourage their audience to contemplate the natural world and their niche within it. 

Are we part of nature … or passive onlookers? How do we find our way back to the garden? If you are a fan of the poignant melodies and storytelling of Joni Mitchell, Eva Cassidy and Kate Miller-Heidke, this event, nestled in the lush surrounds of Adelaide Botanic Garden, is a must.
