This week El Tee, Imogen Cygler + Kisses are stopping by for a show.
Californian-Melbournian artist El Tee has been a fixture in Melbourne’s indie-folk scene since 2018, crafting intimate songs about grief, love, and loss. Her dark, emotive lyrics are paired with an unassuming softness, creating a sound both haunting and heartfelt. After a four-year hiatus, El Tee returned in 2024 with "Baby," a raw reflection on self-sabotage, followed by "Too Afraid To Ask For Love," exploring vulnerability. Her 2020 debut album, Everything Is Fine, earned critical acclaim, topping community radio charts and receiving spins on triple J. Compared to Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten, El Tee is cementing her place as a compelling songwriter and performer.
Highly respected for her multi-disciplinary compositional work for actors, playwrights, musicians, filmmakers and more, Cygler released her debut EP Wrocław in 2019 to acclaim from the local art-folk scene. In 2023, in addition to her debut record, ‘Sometimes Strangers’, she released a collaborative EP with Robbie Divine, titled ‘Yoga’, as well as ‘Night Lamp’, from a new project with Theo Carbo called My Liege. Cygler has worked and performed with artists including Jacob Diamond, Hannah Cameron, Sunfruits, Juice Webster, and Jade Alice. Cygler was also the producer of Isobel Caldwell’s 2022 album Duty of Care. Her debut album, 'Sometimes Strangers' cements Cygler as a singular, progressive voice in the Australian alternative-music scene. This album is a telescope into a planetarium of Cygler’s own. Decorous and imaginative, Cygler proffers a new frontier for conceptually-driven music that is both playful and profound.
