Mama Kin Spender coming

The Regent Spotlight

DINGO SPENDER is no stranger to the Northern Rivers, and loves the lush area, “I get such a strong sense of the incredible communities that resonate with the natural beauty of the place.”

This visit Dingo returns with Mama Kin (Danielle Caruana), uniting in their dynamic, musical marriage duo, Mama Kin Spender… sure to set on-stage sparks afire at The Regent, Friday 3rd March. “We met on a flight from Melbourne to Los Angeles, and started chatting as I had just joined her brother’s band (Nicky Bomba ) as a saxophone player. Small world!

After a conversation about how depressed we were with our solo careers as Mama Kin, and Spender, we decided on a new project that meant we spent more time together. We laugh like, a lot, when we hang out. So, Mama Kin took my surname, “Spender”, and we dreamt about singing together, working with choirs… and laughing a lot!” This camaraderie is sensed through their sparkling performance chemistry, making their professional union a big hit with Festival audiences, and earning ARIA nominations for their first, aptly-named album, “Golden Magnetic”.

“Music is always, always there for you. You can neglect it for months or years, and you hit play, or pick up your instrument, and it’s like you never left it…a bit like what a true friend is: You can go months or years without speaking or seeing each other, and then, it all just floods back, as if not a day had passed…” Don’t miss out – BOOK NOW!
