Crowded House crafts songs that feel like home—melodic, melancholic, and endlessly nostalgic. Formed in 1985 by New Zealand’s Neil Finn, the band rose to fame with hauntingly beautiful hits like “Don’t Dream It’s Over”, “Weather With You” and “Four Seasons in One Day”. Their music blends elements of rock, pop with lyrical soul-searching, striking a chord across generations. With harmonies that ache and melodies that linger, Crowded House remains a beacon of heartfelt, timeless songwriting. Allow vocalist Francesca Quinlivan and her band take you on a journey through the evergreen, rich catalogue of Crowded House paying homage by performing reimagined arrangements of these timeless, exquisite tunes. This is a performance you won’t want to miss!
About the artist:
Francesca Quinlivan (Frankie) is an emerging vocalist, improviser and composer based in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia). Steeped in the jazz tradition, her music reflects a deep respect for the genre while embracing a fresh and individual voice.
Drawing inspiration from artists such as Anita O’Day, Nancy Wilson, Sarah Vaughan, Karen Carpenter, K.D. Lang and Amy Winehouse, Frankie brings authenticity and emotional depth to her performances, with a vocal sound that is warm, crystalline and resonant.
Her original compositions weave together threads of jazz, rock, pop and folk, creating a sound that is distinctly her own — expressive, textured, and timeless.
A jazz-trained vocalist from the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts and Monash University, Francesca has collaborated and recorded with leading Australian artists including Dr Robert Burke, Vince Jones, Nat Bartsch, Coco’s Lunch, Russell Holmes and Dr Nick Abbey.
She has performed at venues and festivals across Australia, including the Melbourne International Jazz Festival, Melbourne Women’s International Jazz Festival, The Count’s Blues Festival and Fringe World Festival.
“Watching Frankie perform made me feel like I was observing something sincere, a star without the stardom, a diamond without the casing, a talented person with a great love for their art. Every spectator is powerless against the charm of her euphonious voice; we are but fireflies compelled by a melodious light.”
