“Kate Fuller plays roots music reminiscent of The Waifs but with the comedic lyricism of Flight of the Conchords.”
“Adelaide-born Fuller has been living abroad for several years and in Annie’s Room she shows off everything she’s learned. The results are a masterclass in jazz vocals and stagecraft.”
