Also on the local front is ARIA Gold-awarded artist<strong> Tyne-James Organ </strong>who'll be bringing his evocative songwriting and spellbinding sonics to the stage, alongside the dreamy pop prowess of multi-instrumentalist<strong> Stevan</strong>.<br><br>Completing the live component of the annual festival are the kaleidoscopic pop-rock sounds of Queensland’s <strong>Hope D,</strong> the raucous rock ‘n’ roll stylings of Sydney’s <strong>Gully Days</strong>, the awe-inspiring musicality of ARIA-nominated artist <strong>Emily Wurramara,</strong> the country twang of <strong>Double Barrel </strong>and the rock 'n' soul sonics of <strong>The Polymics</strong>, supported by a plethora of up-and-coming local DJs including <strong>Groove Society</strong>.<br><br>Co-Founder of Cleary Music, Arts & Wellness Festival, Dom Furber says: “<em>I have always dreamed of delivering a festival of this scale locally since throwing my first event in Sydney Harbour in 2010. I was born in the area, attended primary school in Gerringong and high school in Kiama, so have close ties to the local community. Clearly Music, Arts & Wellness Festival and the Clearer Workshop will provide a platform for emerging and established artists to showcase their talents and connect with audiences from all over. We can't wait to see the positive impact this festival will have on the community this year and in the years to come."</em><br><br>Alongside a traditional live music offering, another cornerstone of the annual event is a 1-day Clearer Workshop led by industry leaders. At the centre of the workshop will be a conference and collaborative learning experience open to the public and held at Kiama’s Pavilion on November 10. Specifically designed to create clearer pathways to success for musicians, performers, songwriters, rappers, producers and DJs, the diverse line-up will offer attendees invaluable industry knowledge, artist development advice, and opportunities to help grow their artistry and amplify their projects.<br><br><br>Says AIME; "<em>Step into a world where the magic of music and the transformative force of kindness converge! AIME is thrilled to announce an extraordinary partnership with the vibrant and spirited Clearly Music, Arts & Wellness Festival. Together, we are embarking on an audacious mission to spread kindness and compassion and create lasting change that resonates far beyond the stage."</em> </p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"><strong>FESTIVAL LINE UP</strong></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Xavier Rudd</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Skegss</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Ruby Fields</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Gretta Ray</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Tyne-James Organ</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Big Twisty & The Funknasty </p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Hope D</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Emily Wurramara</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Stevan</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Gully Days </p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">The Polymics</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Double Barrel</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Hosted by Dom Littrich </p><p dir="ltr"> </p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"><strong>+ DJs ON THE DISCO STAGE</strong></p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Ben Gerrans</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Groove Society</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Sasha Milani</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">C8i</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Clay Zane</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Em Gurr</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Haylee Karmer</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Just Tneek</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Le Crockett</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Leena Nees</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Purejoy</p><p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;">Roxy Lotz</p>
