From the creators of Where Song Began (Limelight Magazine) & Songs of Disappearance (#2 on the ARIA Charts), “Life on Land’s Edge” takes you on an epic journey alongside migratory birds as they connect continents and cultures. A cinematic concert experience, Life on Land’s Edge draws on art, science, and music from across the ages. Spectacular footage and soundscapes set the scene for two of Australia’s most adventurous musicians. Be immersed in one of nature’s greatest stories.
*Please note, this program was due to be performed in March of 2022, but had to be postponed due to a family emergency. The Bowerbird Collective is excited to return to Tasmania to present ‘Life on Land’s Edge’ in 2025.
