Whenever I listen to Sarah Blasko’s albums I feel like I’m navigating a vast ocean, with hidden depths below and uncertain weather above, but on Eternal Return her songs bubble up like a clear, pure, mountain spring. It’s an invigorating tonic for the soul." – Dave Faulkner
“Part Alison Goldfrapp, Part Kate Bush Art-Pop machine” – Mojo
Sarah & her band are playing this special show for Great Southern Nights in the lead up to the release of her long awaited seventh album. The show will be a preview of many of these new songs plus a chance to play a range of songs from all her records.
Sarah Blasko writes songs that strike with rare immediacy, clarity and purpose. Melodies beguilingly simple, lyrics ever honest and direct. Blasko has reached rarefied status in Australia, from the now-classic debut The Overture & The Underscore (2004) through to the stunning Depth Of Field (2018); her six-album run of genre-defining indie-rock and art-pop is unparalleled. Over the course of her albums she has received countless award nominations and has secured 3 ARIA awards and triple j’s Album Of The Year for ‘As Day Follows Night’.
Sarah was the subject of the ABC commissioned documentary BLASKO – which aired late in 2017 to critical acclaim, and has written music for film, television, theatre and ballet. She has performed with Symphony Orchestras, string quartets, electronic duos, and makes up one third of the beloved ‘Seeker Lover Keeper’ collaboration alongside Sally Seltmann and Holly Throsby.
