Deborah Conway is Australian musical royalty – actually musical royalty generally. Talking to us on the back of her book, Book of Life (Allen and Unwin) it’s an incredible story of music, motherhood, childhood, partnerhood and all the things in between. In this episode Deborah talks about her life with Willy Zygier and their now grown up girls, also wonderful creative people. Read the book, see and hear them play around the country, and generally bask in her fantastic output, leadership and creative drive. We are so honoured to have her with us generally, and in this little series in particular.

Jessica Mauboy – Music Mothers and Others
Our guest today is Jessica Mauboy. An absolute legend of Australian music, Jess is a singer, a writer, a performer – multi ARIA award winner, and recently inducted into the National Indigenous Music Awards Hall of Fame – incredible. She’s been in the spotlight for nearly 20 years, and after a long time at major labels, she has recently taken the next big boss lady move by stepping out as an independent artist on the new label Jamally, with her new single “While I Got Time”. Oh, and somewhere in there she finds time to be an incredible Mum, Sister and Daughter. We are so excited to have you with us on Music Mothers and Others – welcome Jessica (and thanks to Blue Music Services for connecting us). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
