🎻 “Xani tears the violin out of tradition and sets it on fire — don’t miss this electrifying show at The Presynct.”It’s been a huge year for violinist and singer/songwriter Xani — and she’s not done yet. Fresh off stages at Tallinn Music Week in Estonia and the inaugural SXSW London, plus the release of her Australian Music Prize-nominated album, “Keep Moving”, Xani is closing out 2025 with something unforgettable.
This isn’t your neat and tidy end-of-year wrap. This is a violin through a distortion pedal. Songs cut open and re-stitched until they bleed new colours. One theme chewed up and spat back as a live show that’s equal parts confession, chaos and communion.
And the first hit is Finish Lines — the end of 2025, the end of the gig calendar, the end of whatever else you never got around to grieving. Expect endings of love, chapters, and eras, dragged into sprawling outros that refuse to shut up when they’re told. Every town gets a different version: new conspirators, fresh wreckage. But the vibe is always the same — half celebration, half funeral, all an ode to the year that has been. A night for anyone who knows that crawling to the finish line still counts as finishing. 🎻 Xani Kolac is a rule-bender with a violin. Classically trained, gleefully corrupted, she rips the instrument out of stereotypes and drops it into a mess of songs, stories, and noise. One moment it’s a gut-punch ballad, the next it’s a wall of distortion — often both in the same set.
Improviser, composer, instigator, Xani’s shows swing like a wrecking ball between raw chaos and cinematic stillness. Always restless. Never the same twice.
“Her set wasn’t just a concert — it was an experience, a testament to the power of music to spark joy and bring people together.” – Upside Adelaide
“Xani Kolac is an expert at melding creative artistry with technology to build captivating sound worlds.” – The Age
✨ Special Guest: Katie Milae Raised on the red dust of Darwin and now anchored by the sea on the Sunshine Coast, Katie’s music is raw, unguarded, and deeply human. Her voice slips seamlessly from soulful grit to hushed vulnerability, carrying the weight of lived experience. Each song draws on solitude, heartbreak, rebirth, and the stories of years spent busking under foreign skies. Her latest single If You Knew Me, You’d Know Me signals a new era — bold, collaborative, and free.
