Nia Robertson started "Storytellers" at the Tamworth Country Music Festival in 2012 to allow songwriters the opportunity to sing their original songs to an appreciative listening audience.

For years, Nia Robertson has provided songwriters with the perfect environment for Australian songwriters to share their original music with the listening public at Tamworth - Australia’s largest music festival.  Nia has created a listening space perfect for the delivery of the craft of song-writing to an appreciative audience. 

For the 2020 festival, more than 100 songwriters will deliver over 1,000 original songs across 8 days - multiple opportunities for songwriters to showcase their words and music - Tamworth.

We are blessed once again to have the support of the City Sider Motor Inn in 2020 - for the most amazing little room in Tamworth!  Air conditioned, intimate - the perfect listening environment for original songwriters. 

We look forward to welcoming you to a gig soon!
