Carinda Christie Trio s she releases her fifth full-length album Cruel, Carinda AChristie brings her music to The ORB in Atherton on 14 September. The Carinda Christie Trio consists of Jason Donnelly on guitar and vocals, and Mark Trimbolli on drums. Cruel sees Christie reunite with some of the most profound influences of her musical life—drummer Ben Hakalitz (Not Drowning Waving, Yothu Yindi) and Giles Smith on bass, guitar and co-production (Dragon, Eagle, John Williamson)—to bring a big band sound to the album. “I got sick of the whole band and covers thing, I wanted to do originals. We worked as a trio, so there is definitely a bigger band sound on this album – we let go a bit and let it take its own shape,” explains Christie. As a live performer, Carinda Christie puts 110 per cent into her shows – so you won't be disappointed. Her sweet and powerful rock-pop- folk style and talent finds her right at home on all stages from festivals and pubs to intimate settings. Carinda has toured extensively over the years to many festivals and has also supported high-profile artists such as Wendy Matthews and Grace Knight, Billy Thorpe, Tina Cousins, Pseudo Echo, Christine Anu and many more. But she still calls the Tablelands home. She has released six albums and has some tracks on iTunes as well as Spotify. 6 What’s On & Where To Go September 2018 Coffeemixed with cake & craft nspired after a trip to the UK, local business woman Emma IPensini embarked on a new business venture incorporating two of her loves – coffee and craft. A new concept for the Tablelands and one of only a handful worldwide, Coffee & Clay offers customers a place to relax and enjoy some quality time, coffee and food, as well as painting ceramics. Coffee & Clay is situated in the Red Sheds in Yungaburra with other arty businesses. Emma has totally transformed the space into a modern English farmhouse style that is totally charming. The space also has room to accommodate her other business Fine Fettle Gifts and Homewares – a match made in heaven. When Emma stumbled across a similar cafe in the UK with her sister, she was immediately taken in and loved how the people in the cafe were actually talking to each other as they painted their ceramics, rather than playing with their phones. Emma Pensini. Photo: Steven Nowakowski This is what she wants for Coffee & Clay – a space to engage with each other and reconnect. The location also offers a lovely view to enjoy which is an added bonus. The first thing that strikes you when you walk in, is the aesthetic beauty and charm of the place. Emma has a natural gift when it comes to decorating as is evident with her Fine Fettle Gifts and Homewares business which has been operating for over six years. She credits her passion for decorating to her mother who is an accomplished sewer and curtain maker. The cafe not only offers great coffee, unique tea blends, cakes, friands, slices and simple tasty homestyle food, but also a charming creative space. For something different, Emma makes her own almond milk to use in the cafe. Their milk is sourced from Mungalli Creek Dairy and their meat is from the Yungaburra Butchery with their special free-range chicken. The creative part of the cafe comes in where you choose an unpainted ceramic from their selection, paint it, have it glazed and fired, and then collect or have it posted to you. There is no skill required which means everyone can have a go. Customers are invited to come in and try it anytime. The concept is perfect for parties, bridal and baby showers, and Emma also encourages kindergartens, playgroups and other groups to use the model as a fun fundraiser. Bookings are required for groups. Emma's daughters, Abbey and Milly, also work part time with her at Coffee & Clay where she mentors and helps to develop their business and hospitality skills. She wants to demonstrate to them—and other women—that you can do whatever you put your mind to and be successful. Her dream is to provide a creative welcoming environment for all to enjoy, which she already has. Coffee & Clay is open 7 days Mon-Fri 7.30am to 5pm and weekends 8am to 4pm at 20 Eacham Road, Yungaburra. September 2018 What’s On & Where To Go 7 Where to shop? Locally, of course!

ith a distinct modern style, local artist Melanie Hava has Wa fresh style that appeals to a wide audience. Originally from Mamu country near Millaa Millaa, Melanie draws on her indigenous heritage to produce stunning images of reef and rainforest. We sat down with Melanie to get an idea of where her inspiration comes from. When did you discover you had a flair for creative art? When I was in Kindy – I distinctly remember my teachers all asking me to paint something for them before the end of the reflections Rainforest and Reef year and they didn’t ask anyone else to paint for them! 2019 MAMU ABORIGINALMELANIE ARTIST HAVA Mamu country is central to your work and identity, do you Melanie's artwork can be spend much time on country or do you still have family in found on the Tablelands the district? at Terra Nova Gallery Most of my family are based in Tully now and scattered all Kuranda. around Australia.

Our special "Reflections – Rainforest place is a swimming spot on the Beatrice River, just down the and Reef" is available at the Malanda Visitor range from Millaa. Information Centre, Terra Nova Gallery (Kuranda), and online Does your creative art process come easily or do you battle at www.stevennowakowski.com with ideas, colour or composition? I may start with an idea of what I want to create but then most of the time the painting takes on its on identity and I just go with it. Sometimes I get “painter’s block” and don’t know what to paint so I go online or to a local gallery for inspiration. I love colours and I just love the freedom of expression with painting. I love the glimmer of gold and the way it can change so much within a piece of work, which is why I use it so frequently. You have exhibited around the world, what are some of the countries or cities where your work has been shown? I currently have work in a gallery in Rotterdam in the Netherlands which has been doing well. I also had work in Enns, Austria. Is there anything in particular that inspires you to be creative? I’d have to say nature inspires me the most – the changing colours of sunsets, the deep greens and browns of a rainforest, the blue skies and red earth, the dance and flight of birds. I also love looking at other artist’s works on Social Media and get inspired by their use of colour.
