Alongside praise from Women In Pop, Beat Magazine, AIR, PBS, Triple R and Triple J Unearthed, Tig has steadily built a reputation as a compelling live performer, supporting artists including Kim Churchill, Pierce Brothers, Ainslie Wills, Flynn Gurry, Maddy May, The McCredie Brothers and Grace Woodroofe.
