Australian singer-songwriter Sinead Burgess, new single & debut UK headline show

Australian singer-songwriter Sinead Burgess, new single & is set ready for debut UK headline show
"AIN'T THINKING ABOUT YOU" - THE NEW SINGLE IS OUT NOW!

An Australian powerhouse based in Nashville, USA , is a remarkable singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist whose music leaves an indelible mark on the heart.


















Highly anticipated debut UK headline show in London on 23rd October 2023 at The Slaughtered Lamb!

First Ever UK Headline Event, Intimate Acoustic Show with Q & A
WHEN Mon, 23 October 2023
WHERE: The Slaughtered Lamb, London (34-35 Great Sutton St, Clerkenwell, London EC1V 0DX)

This highly anticipated show gives fans a chance to see Sinead up close and personal, an opportunity that is not to be missed.
Fans who appreciate acoustic music will enjoy the intimate sound of this historic venue, known for showcasing artists on the rise. The event will be hosted by Jess T from Country Radio UK, who will interview Sinead on stage, giving the audience a glimpse into the life of the woman behind the guitar before a stunning acoustic show, featuring fan favourites from her incredible back catalog, her recent single "Rolling Stones," (SPOTIFY LINK | 4 Aug 2023; co-written with Brian Koppelman) as well as some exclusive new music that has yet to be released or performed in the UK!
Ticket holders will also be gifted an exclusive Sinead Burgess goodie bag.

Sinead Burgess had the time of her life on a U.K. tour alongside Country/Blues luminary Kezia Gill, and on the day she performed at the O2 Institute3 in Birmingham, her newest single was released. 'Ain't Thinking About You’ is out in the world and receiving great reviews from fans far and wide. This song, in Sinead's own words, is more than just a journey of moving on…“it’s the epiphany of joy that comes from realizing you’ve moved on & then some"

Sinead has not only produced this track; she has poured her heart and soul into it, weaving a sonic tapestry reminiscent of Sheryl Crow's rustic rock tones intertwined with the rhythmic heartbeat of The Rolling Stones. The lyrics, though elegantly straightforward, encapsulate the essence of carefree liberation —a vivid tableau of that pivotal moment after parting ways with the past, embracing a world of new possibilities.

When recounting the creative process, Burgess says: "The inspiration for this track struck me like a lightning bolt one night. It was just a musical feeling more than anything, so I quickly built a demo of the ideas while they were in my head and knew I had to send it straight to Brian.”
Reuniting with Brian Koppelman, Burgess’ now main collaborator and same talented co-writer who helped bring her last release 'Rolling Stones' to life, 'Ain't Thinking About You' captures the exhilarating sensation of riding the waves of life, leaving behind the echoes of the past with an unbridled joy of a great weight being lifted. 

Sinead fondly recalls the lyrical back and forth, where the words were finessed and crafted through a self-proclaimed ‘unconventional’ way…“The lyrics came together so fast. 

We were text messaging back and forth, tweaking as I was cutting vocals, which was a really different way of writing for us & it meant we could figure out as we went along whether the vibe of each line felt right or not in real time. I never thought I’d write something so real and vibey over text! But it added to the conversational nature of the song. Brian and I have worked together so much by this point we were immediately on the same wavelength.”

This earthy, acoustic rock anthem, laced with a vintage soul of Sheryl Crow, Grace Potter, Alanis Morissette, and even a taste of KT Tunstall, is simultaneously carving out its own unique niche within the realms of Americana and Country music, a space that is rapidly becoming a sonic foothold all of her own.

Sinead Burgess joined her first show of the U.K tour with Kezia Gill in Leeds on October 13, performed 8 shows culminating in her very first headline show in London on the 23rd October at The Slaughtered Lamb, where Americana darlings, The Civil Wars, also held their debut London performance.

Ain’t Thinking About You dropped on October 20th, 2023 and debuted at #35 on UK iTunes Country Singles Chart.

North Queensland Singer-Songwriter Colie serenades with indie-folk ballad 'Half Of What You Are'


"A fully realised folk tinged indie sound with an intimate feel."
- Dave Ruby Howe, triple j

A lover of storytelling, Colie (real name is Nicole Cross), expresses honest vulnerability in her new track, as she opens up about growing up as a fraternal twin in regional far north Queensland. Colie's lamenting vocals sail over the lyrical guitar chords as she portrays resignation with her status when compared to her brother.

"From the moment a child is born, they face a "blue" or "pink" reality. I had a unique experience with this growing up, being a fraternal twin and having a sibling of the exact same age, yet we were treated differently based on our gender. ‘Half of What You Are’ explores the idea that gender is socially constructed by the way members of society evaluate the role of females and males," Colie explains.

Releasing her first single 'Sunday News' in February followed by her EP 'Bug On A Lamplight' in May, Colie received rave reviews and airplay via 
triple J unearthed,  Double J, ABC Local, 2RRR, and many other community radio stations around the country. Influences ranging from Julia Jacklin, Gretta Ray to Johnny Cash and The Police, Colie's own sound brings a humbling sensibility with a song that explores a current subject matter that is both personal and universal.




















As her career starts to heat up, Colie is set to tell her story around the country, with upcoming shows across the East Coast from November. But for now, take the journey with her as she bears her heart in 'Half Of What You Are'.

Audio:

Robust guitar riffs and drum beats synonymous with blues and roots immediately make an introduction, with little time before Ruby's signature Americana-roots tinged vocals glide in. With alignments to artists Lanie Lane, Lindi Ortega & Lera Lynn'Slave' is a vintage blues and rock'n'roll infused track with a modern spin. 

The single was inspired by her own turmoils of working for 'the man', and the feelings of displeasure in aspects of her personal life. 
"‘Slave’ is about hating my day job. I also felt like a slave to the mundanity of day-to-day life and felt tied down to people and unsuccessful relationships", explains Ruby.
New music is on the horizon.
