Hosted by Dear Orphans and featuring their favourite established and up and coming country/roots artists as guests, The Orphanage Sessions is about real music, being played for real, to real people. Taking place in the performance space upstairs at Mars Hill Cafe in Parramatta, the shows present an opportunity to listen and interact with artists on comfy lounges whilst enjoying ethical, Brazilian coffee and other treats.

Past artists have included:

• The Wildes
• Huckleberry Swedes
• Karl Broadie
• The Yearlings
• Jessica Belle
• Ange Takats
• Sam Hawksley
• The Harmonators
• Caitlin Harnett
