PJ Harvey

Set  in Adelaide’s leafy botanic gardens, WOMADelaide has a legacy stretching back over 30 years. Bringing the best of world music, arts and dance over the Adelaide Cup long weekend, it is a destination for the faithful. From local bands such as Dojo Rise and Meena De Silva to the incredible voice and stage presence of PJ Harvey, the first evening packed a punch. Bangarra Dance Theatre are consistently powerful and Nitin Sawhney was a crowd favourite. Take a look at the photos below from Friday and see for yourself.
