When it was announced in late 2010 that three of Australia’s most talented singer/songwriters — Sarah Blasko, Holly Throsby & Sally Seltmann —were forming a ‘supergroup’, I nearly combusted. I’ve been a long-time admirer of these musicians individually and the thought of their powers combined was almost too much for my head and heart to handle.
They group is called Seeker Lover Keeper, and the first three tracks that premiered today are as lovely as I anticipated. The songs have been delivered as music videos featuring Aussie actors Barry Otto, Aden Young and John Waters, who interpret one song each. Enjoy.
Seeker Lover Keeper’s yet-to-be-titled debut album is set for release on June 3. Australians can pre-order it now via the link above. The rest of the world might have to wait a little while.
Suddenly wishing I lived in Australia.
There may or may not have been jazz hands in the car when I heard about this on the radio… I also love Barry Otto a lot so this whole page is pretty much perfect.
Barry Otto just gets more beautiful the older he gets. Best face.
this is slightly unrelated to this post but i feel like you’re friends with tegan in real life. probs not sara, but tegan. is this true fact?
How random. Why not Sara?
im not sure, its just a feeling. yay or nay?
I really like Even Though I’m A Woman.
Dear Crystal,
I love you for exposing me (us) to so many great music
Sincerely,
me
I love all three of these women individually, and I’m swooning at the idea of them making music together.
I’ve also probably listened to “Even Though I’m a Woman” about 10 times since yesterday.
Thanks for this!!
I think its interesting that they chose men to be the spokespeople for their new songs. It is interesting in a genderfuck sort of way but makes me go hmmmm…
I love the videos, I love the music, I love these three beautiful and talented women. Wow.
