Excitement is high to welcome Chris Sebastian to Airlie Beach for the Whitsundays Songwriter
Festival. Winner of The Voice Season 9, capturing the hearts of Australian audiences, Chris will join
2 time Golden Guitar award winner Brad Butcher as part of the professional songwriter faculty.
The Songwriter Festival is in its fourth year and provides a brilliant opportunity for local
songwriters to learn from professionals in an immersive one-day workshop.
Chris will also perform alongside other outstanding artists in a Concert & Conversation event at
Whitsunday Sailing Club. Both events take place on Saturday June 7.

Sebastian captured the attention of Australians nationwide in performance after spine-tingling
performance.
As a vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and songwriter, he is the epitome of
a complete artist.
Touring with American vocal group Pentatonix, recording in Los Angeles, sharing the spotlight
with world-renowned artists and commanding sold-out headline shows, Chris also tours with
dynamic Aussie electronic duo Peking Duk.
