Welcome to Broken Creek!
Broken Creek weave compelling musical reimaginings of Australiana for banjo, guitar, fiddle and voice that tell stories from Australia’s past and present.
Erin and Lachlan Heycox grew up in rural Victoria steeped in bushbands and balladeers. Named for the creek Erin grew up near, ‘Broken Creek’ signals a love of country and traditional folk music with an adventurous musical bent to “break” with the conventional.
Broken Creek’s upcoming album ‘Yeah Nah’ features songs about small-town Australia, tunes inspired by the land and subversive interpretations of traditional Australian songs. Broken Creek’s debut album ‘Small Town Anthropologies’ was a finalist for FAA Traditional Album of Year.
It launched a three-month national ‘Small Town Tour’ that included pop-up choirs, church halls, folk festivals and recording tunes in gorgeous locations.
Broken Creek have continued sharing their music and stories with audiences across the country, from stages at festivals (Cygnet Folk Festival, CresFest, Newport Folk Festival, Tablelands Folk Festival, Shepparton Arts Festival) to support slots with Australian folk and country legends Fanny Lumsden, The Bushwhackers and the Weeping Willows.
