Quite possibly the best three lady singer-songwriters in Australia have joined forces, and with their powers combined, it's Captain Planet! Well, no Captain, but it's a band called Seeker Lover Keeper,and consists of Holly Throsby, Sally Seltman and Sarah Blasko. Now I may be a little biased, as people close to me are well aware of my unconditional love for Ms Throsby, but there is no denying the beauty of the music that results when these girls write music together.
If you'd like a taste, go here to check out the videos for three of the tracks from their self-titled album, which comes out on the 3rd of June. The videos feature some familiar Aussie actors mouthing the words. Very interesting seeing the voice of a young lady emerging from the mouth of a middle-aged man, heh heh.
If you want more than a taste, you can grab the whole pie at triple j. They're featuring the album this week on the wireless, and streaming the album in full on the web.
Holly, Sarah and Sally begin touring nationally soon, including an appearance in July at Splendour in the Grass. They will be joined on tour with Jim White of the Dirty Three on drums, and David Symes on bass. Try not to miss them.
