Alice & Sandrine

Alice Skye (Anderson)

Alice Skye (Anderson) is a Wergaia and Wemba Wemba person born and raised in the Wimmera Mallee. Known predominantly as a singer-songwriter, she has released two albums. Both explore feelings, loss and inner-voices. As a kid living rurally, Alice learned that when your surroundings are out of your control, there is comfort to be found in words, diaries, stories and song. As well as time travel and escape. It is her hope to continue to process the world through these channels and explore healing, in whatever outlet takes shape.

Sandrine Masse

Singer-songwriter and violist Sandrine Masse has been lending her voice and viola to diverse musical projects for over 15 years. A graduate of the École nationale de la chanson, she won the Georges-Dor First Prize and the Audience Choice Award at the Chante en français competition in 2022. After performing at numerous festivals, competitions, and residencies, she released Là où la terre est (2024), her second atmospheric folk record honoring her ancestral lands. She introduces the Wendat language for the first time in Tho ïohtih, a song that topped the Attitude Franco (Sirius XM) charts in September 2024 and earned her the prestigious Karim Ouellet grant in 2025. Alongside her solo career, she showcases her culture through her multidisciplinary duo Les Coz des maïs and actively contributes to her community by participating in cultural mediation and revitalization projects.

The project is curated by Blak & Bright and delivered by the Melbourne UNESCO City of Literature Office, with support from Creative Australia.
