Austin singer-songwriter Daisy O’Connor makes her long-awaited return to the Cactus stage after six years away from live performances. Currently curating a mix of fresh material and longtime favorites, Daisy will capture the evening as a live recording. Though her recorded work has evolved from intimate solo beginnings into a dynamic full-band folk-rock sound, this special show offers a rare acoustic performance that reflects her early days in Austin’s vibrant folk community.

Leslie Sisson is the songwriter and front woman of Moving Panoramas. Her music is the cathartic result of a long series of traumatic events, including surviving being drugged and kidnapped by a murderer during a home invasion, to battling breast cancer for the past two years. She’s an open book and her music resonates with an open heart. Leslie is currently working on a new Moving Panoramas album followed by a more stripped down solo collection of songs to share that capture the spirit of this trauma core battlefield. Solo is how all the songs begin and this next chapter is a new beginning of shedding some of that trauma skin.
