Overview

After a four-year hiatus, all-femme rockers Electrelane are back! Announcing their re-emergence to play a number of festivals throughout the UK and Europe, the quartet is now set to come to Australia for shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane this March.

Having built a cult following since forming in 1998, Electrelane are renowned for their ability to fuse a cappella ensembles, Spanish sonnets, krautrock and indie-pop (and actually make it sound good). Having toured with the likes of Arcade Fire and worked with renowned producer Steve Albini (Nirvana, PJ Harvey), Electrelane reach an audience as eclectic as their sound.

Originally from Brighton, UK, these British ladies had us all worried when they called it quits in late 2007 but their recent announcement has had fans frothing at the mouth with the thought of their return. There are few bands that can cover so much musical ground by perfectly mixing equal measures of cerebral with visceral, pop with expressionism and gritty rock with sweet harmonies.

With a focused and thrilling live show that minimises audience interaction, come witness their unique collision of genres, which has already had punters and critics alike heralding their sweet return.
