Hills and Bells in Concert

Saturday Music Showcase

From 7:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m.

On Saturday, 7 December, The Magic Sponge will kick off our weekly high season musical event, “Saturday Music Showcase”, and what better way to start than with the dynamic duo “Hills and Bells” with Scott Bywater and Marianna Hensley. Hailing from Tasmania, poet and singer-songwriter Scott Bywater is one of the best known of all Cambodian musicians with many well-known songs to his credit. He has been the founding member of numerous musical groups, including the Cambodian Space Project. Marianna Hensley is an extremely versatile vocalist who has found her home in Phnom Penh. She enjoys folk, jazz, country, soul, bluegrass, gospel, and more. Marianna slides in, out, and across genres for the sheer pleasure of it. For her, music is about collaboration, versatility, and the joy of song. “Singing opens a piece of my soul that nothing else can touch.” We hope you will look as forward to this performance as we are. The show starts at 7:00 p.m. on The Stage @ The Magic Sponge.
