Merchandise stalls at a music gig usually do ‘fit the vibe’.

For singer-songwriter Anna Smyrk, loading the table with packets of native flower and plant seeds still does just that – she insists.

Let’s hear her out.

“I came up with the idea of this tour to go around community gardens as something a little out of the ordinary to do,” she told The Euroa Gazette.

“And there are some amazing strong communities coming together for this idea of me getting to play in places I normally would not get to play.”

The Melbourne-based guitarist will play at Yiiro Community Garden in Euroa on Sunday afternoon, 26 October, accompanied by Loz Irwin-Ray, on a tour around the nation's regional areas that began last week and ends on 22 November.

And as for the seed packets?

“I think it’s going to be nice that we have this as merchandise – they will fit the vibe,” she said.

“Garden variety grief is about finding light in dark times.

“And those things have been communicated through music and through nature.”

The accomplished artist has a busy schedule, dividing her time between Melbourne and the mid-west of the US, usually playing festivals.

Smyrk defines her music style as ‘emotional indi bangers’.

“There’s lots of personal stories but big hooks as well as I try to make the music really compelling and a lot of fun as well.

“A hook for me is a little part of a song that can be an earworm that hooks you in and doesn’t let you go.

She said the Euroa event would be a great opportunity for people to simply ‘hang out’ with friends and family in a unique setting.

“I think it’s a real chance for people to connect with music that’s out of the ordinary,” she said.

“It’s not just walking into a dark bar at night – it’s going to be accessible to all ages and it’s free.

“Anyone can come along and check it out.”

Yiiro Community Garden is at 29A Brock Street.
