Bush Meets The Sea is more than a concert, the performance offers audiences a first glimpse into the world of Candice Lorrae's forthcoming debut album Paperbark & Lilies through story, song, visuals and a new creative work: the Sonic Fish Trap Interface.
Inspired by her family's traditional fish traps, the large-scale interactive installation transforms the ancient structure into a live playable instrument, allowing performers to trigger sound through touch and movement.
The premiere was held at the Bowery Theatre on 10 July 2026, marking another bold step in a career that has consistently bridged music, technology, culture and storytelling.

Bowery Theatre Testimonial
Candice’s music offers audience not only brilliant lyrical storytelling and melodic hip wiggling joy, it is a deep reflection of her Jawoyn and Torres Strait Islander ancestry and her childhood experiences of travelling across Country to find a new life and new path. The show is layered with incredible music presented by a skilled band, vocals and storytelling by Candice throughout the set, projections steeped in nostalgia of original footage shot during her adventures in her Toyato Corona on handycam, and an epic centrepiece of a fish trap installation – that not only visually frames the musicians with its two-metre height and 8 metres of wire held by poles – but also transforms to become a sonic accompaniment for Candice and the band. - Siena Balakrishnan, The Bowery Theatre
