Jumping Fences

Jumping Fences’ songs traverse working lives, migration and exile, and everyday hopes and joys. Their long association with Latin American music resonates deeply in their own compositions. They toured to Cuba in 2017 and 2018, and nationally they have performed at numerous festivals and venues in South-East Queensland and Victoria. They have composed songs for choirs and conducted workplace songwriting and performance projects in association with the Qld Council of Unions. In 2025, Jumping Fences released two singles ‘Woolloongabba’ and ‘Tiempo y Silencio’. You can download the songs from Bandcamp or listen on Spotify, YouTube or Apple Music.
