An enchanting duo. Two unique voices, flowing harmonies and captivating songs seem to bring Nick and Liesl a loving reception wherever they go. Their distinctive sound is the coming together of two singer/songwriters with influences ranging from Nick’s love of Cat Stevens and James Taylor to Liesl’s classical songbooks and the local folk music of her childhood home Sweden. Although only two people, the pair present a sound that fills large theatres and small village churches alike. Their stories are many and varied, as is their performance, with each switching between instruments along to the ever-present stomp box and tambourine.

After forming while on tour in Europe in early 2007, Nick and Liesl first gained recognition as a brilliant live act performing at festivals throughout Australia, the 2007 ABC Awards in Newcastle, and supporting artists such as Kate Miller-Heike, Harry Manx, Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson. In 2008 Nick and Liesl completed their second European tour playing to packed venues and festivals in Sweden, Germany & the UK before returning home to launch their debut EP Wyong River at The Basement in Sydney. Both local and international recognition earned them an invitation to Popkomm in Berlin as part of an Australian showcase along with artists Clare Bowditch and Sarah McCleod. While continuing with their success on the Australian festival circuit the EP received an ABC award, national airplay on ABC and Triple J and an inclusion on Home Grown Roots Vol 3 along with artists Paul Kelly, John Butler, Mia Dyson, Ash Grunwald and Karl Broadie.
