Episode 32
Thursday, 4 December, 2025

Danielle Caruana is an award winning singer songwriter - better known to many by her on-stage moniker of Mama Kin.This spellbinding singer and percussionist taps into the DNA of generations of creatives before her as half of the duo Mama Kin Spender - mesmerising audiences with her firebrand performances and songwriting. Mama Kin Spender’s latest album Promises was nominated for an Aria this year, and on this episode of Streets of Your Town Danielle tells us how she lays her heart bare in the lyrics and emotion of this album, going into the layers of the demise and saving of her relationship with fellow musician John Butler. She also wholeheartedly explores how to stay fierce as a woman and is unapologetic about desiring success and recognition for her work. It was such a joy to speak to Danielle from her base at the eclectic creative hub of Fremantle in Perth about her songwriting, her upcoming performance at Woodford Folk Festival on the other side of the country, and her philanthropic work.
