Julie Byrne
US folk songwriter Julie Byrne will be bringing her devastating 2023 album 'The Greater Wings' to Sydney Festival's Thirsty Mile.
Overview
Sydney Festival is bringing US singer-songwriter Julie Byrne back to Australian shores for its 2024 edition. The acclaimed folk musician is currently touring behind the release of her devastating new album, The Greater Wings, a record which reckons with the passing of Byrne's longtime creative partner Eric Littmann.
You can expect an intimate hour-long journey through the songs of The Greater Wings and Byrne's back catalogue at Sydney Festival's pop-up Walsh Bar art precinct, The Thirsty Mile.

If you want to inject some beautifully gentle, intensely personal folk music into your summer, you've got two opportunities. Julie Byrne will be performing on Wednesday, January 17, and then again on Friday, January 19.
Both performances will be part of the larger program taking over Pier 2/3 in Walsh Bay, including theatre and art, cabaret and dance, bars and speakeasies, and a late-night club called The Moonshine Bar.
