On Inclusive Groove , she sits down with musicians she admires - and has often seen live - to explore their stories, careers and connection to the stage. Along the way, Elsie shines a light on the barriers people with disabilities can face when attending live performances, from inaccessible venues to the everyday challenges that often go unseen. Featuring candid conversations, behind-the-scenes stories and a genuine love of music, Inclusive Groove celebrates the joy of live performance while advocating for a music scene where everyone belongs - and everyone gets a front-row seat.

His current band The Roving Commission features old \"Weddoes\" bandmate Squeezebox Wally on Piano Accordion and a rotating schedule of talented performers to keep the party alive with Mick's unique mix of folk, roots and country. Running along side the Roving Commission is a whole raft of projects such as the magnum opus theatre piece The Vandemonian Lags (featuring Tim Rogers, Brian Nankervis, Liz Stringer, mong others). There's more theatre work in development coupled with the running of a boutique inner city music venue (The Merri Creek Tavern). It would be too easy for Mick to revive and live his life in the shadow of his iconic seemingly never to be forgotten band Weddings, Parties, Anything but more than ever it comes down to the shows he's doing now and the songs he is about to write and record.
