The Jezabels
The Australian Music Prize winners stop off at home ahead of a busy world tour.
Overview
With an extensive schedule awaiting them, Sydney four-piece The Jezabels are stopping off at Hordern Pavilion with Lights and Snakadaktal ahead of a year that sees them playing shows across Australia as well as in the UK, USA, Germany, The Netherlands, Canada and Ireland.
The Jezabels play a blend of alternative rock, indie rock and discopop delivered by the feminine fury of frontwoman Hayley Mary. Described as a "cocktail of power and elegance" the band won the Australian Music Prize last year and, with their debut album, Prisoner, peaking at number two and earning gold certification, they have a bright future ahead of them.
Perhaps more famous than The Jezabels in other parts of the world, Canadian electropop singer/songwriter Lights won the title of best new artist at the prestigious Juno Awards in 2009. With two top 10, gold-certified albums she's sure to be a blinding support.
Last year the madly named Snakadaktal won Triple J's Unearthed High competition with their track 'Chimera' and, with their debut EP reaching number 26 in the digital ARIA chart, have more than earned their place on this tour.
