Overview

Living in the shadow of a famous father has never been Eliza-Jane Barnes' problem. E.J. has carved a niche independent of her rocker father, Jimmy, having written, recorded and toured the world with New Zealanders Liam Finn (son of Crowded Houses' Neil Finn) and Laurence Arabia. Her new project sees her team up with Sydneysider and long-time friend, Ceci Herbert (formerly of Guineafowl). Together they form Evil J and Saint Cecilia, an adorably analogue psychadelic folk duo.

Their debut offering, Strange Beasts, was recorded in E.J.'s home studio and mixed by Rick Will (producer of Boy & Bear and Grinspoon's latest albums). Fresh from a sold out tour of Australia with Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder, Evil J and Saint Cecilia are ready to unleash on Sydney their brand of head down, hip swaying songs of love, family and home.

The duo will play Goodgod at 8pm on Tuesday night and the Oxford Art Factory at 11pm on Thursday. Both shows are free.
