The Winterfriends were a constantly evolving music collective who have entertained the public in Melbourne since 2013 with original works written or arranged by their singer the lyricist-composer Phaedra Gunn.  They rebranded in 2020 to Madam Nightingale.

The Winterfriends repertoire of original songs were an exciting mix of prog-rock, folk-pop & jazz-infused soul influences.  Madam Nightingale are currently writing & recording new post-genre material - For details see their Facebook page.
