    In the realm of storytellers, Kerryn Fields emerges as a widely adored figure, presenting to the world her live EP, 'The Folk Singer.'

    “An incredible voice. Pure magic” Radio13 NZ

    The EP celebrates the troubadour in her element, building on the success of her award-winning 2021 LP, 'Water, These are the tales of an ever-dreaming folk singer, baring her bones for the world to witness.

    Following on from her song ‘Queenie’, these tracks dive deeper into the story, walking the journey of creation, climate change and chronic illness, where every note echoes with the resonance of a true folk luminary.

    Radiating love, humour and a depth of character that’s palpable as soon as she enters a room, Fields utilises music and storytelling as a vehicle for doing what she does best: making peace with her own human existence. It’s because of this startling ability to meet and embrace herself so willingly that others feel able to do the same.

    With multiple awards and nominations to her name (Music Victoria Best Folk Work 2022, Music Victoria Best Solo Artist & Best Record Finalist 2022, AFMA Contemporary Album of the Year, Music Victoria Folk Act of the Year and Amplify Award finalist, 2021), Fields’ trademark warmth of character, evident in both life and music, fuels a creative offering that expands well beyond her command of guitar, voice and audience.

It was kindergarten When I first pushed a pram Found a sweet friend and I held their hand And I always cared for the little ones around Everybody knows, it’s my turn now I’m hanging on for a miracle Running out of precious time At the fork in the road I’ve tried adoption And every operation I’ve cursed at God in my desperation and I saw my Mother by the river in a dream skipping stones, but what does that mean I’m hanging on for a miracle Running out of precious time At the fork in the road Now the sun’s setting low And I still don’t wanna go, without you As the first star appears How I wish you were here And not just some idea that i’ve been naming At the fork in the road Now the world is at war And the water’s on the rise And the truth is, darling I’m terrified That perhaps it is better, if I don’t have you If it’s all now that I can do We’re hanging on for a miracle Running out of precious time At the fork in the road
