One of our most successful independent exports in the conscious music scene, our very own, Deya Dova, who has been based in the Byron Shire and surrounding region for 30 years, returns to perform the finale of their 2025 Australian Tour with a rare local show transforming the Green Room in Byron Bay.
Following headline performances throughout Europe, the UK, and North America in 2023-24, Deya Dova bring their acclaimed live show experience home to the Byron Shire.
Known for their immersive, highly visual live show experience – a multi-media, high-frequency music and dance floor ceremony that celebrates the positive power of our shared humanity. On stage Deya is joined by her co producer, Hamilton Barnett. Together they fuse ancient songlines with the futurism of global bass music. Blending Deya’s extraordinary primal and otherworldly voice with organic beats and world-infused instrumentation.
The live performance features the Deya Dova Avatars –archetypal characters inspired by ancient goddesses and mythic beings, costumed and created by Deya Dova, and performed by a cast of female dancers and performance artists flying in especially for this show.
Over the last ten years Deya has been on a unique recording exploration singing live in nature at over 80 sacred sites and Earth energy centres around the planet.
‘The Deya Dova Live Experience is about celebrating our connection with the Earth, cosmos and our human spirit. Growing up in the vast horizons of the Australian desert, it was the land that sung me awake,’ says Deya. ‘Over the last decade, I’ve had the privilege of deep listening and recording live at Earth energy centres and megalithic sites all around the world as part of my Planetary Grid Music Project. This live show is an interactive, extra-sensory journey connecting with these energetic places – through music, dance and mythos.’
For the Green Room performance Deya Dova is joined by opening artists and exciting emerging talent Midnight Prophet, who have been igniting audiences on tour with Deya Dova, with their mix of rhythmic baselines, sultry sonics and masked stage presence. Plus The Boy Of Many Colours – back from Boom Festival in Portugal and joined by local Babilali Dance Group to create an exciting fusion of music, song, dance and culture bringing the stories of the distant past into the here and now.
Don’t miss this rare chance to experience the Deya Dova experience. Saturday at the Green Room, Byron Bay.
