SESAME GIRL

-

THEY ARE a quadrant of Canberran dream-pop debonairs with songs as spirited as they are shadowy. There’s a warbly, psych-esque bite to Yasmine Hosseini’s tantalisin­g leads, frontwoman Heather Duncan soaring over them with ambrosial vocals equally bold and buttery, and luscious rhythmic strumming that glues the whole mix together.

THEY’RE FOR FANS OF Soccer Mommy, Beach House and Julia Jacklin.

THEIR LATEST RELEASE IS “Get Up”, our first taste of a debut EP set for release in the latter chunk of 2021, upon which (we’re desperatel­y hoping) the band will became a smash hit on festival stages everywhere. Per their Triple J Unearthed profile – which you should definitely go follow – Sesame

Girl are inspired by the alt-rock greats of the ‘80s and ‘90s. That nostalgic flair is crystallis­ed beautifull­y on “Get Up”, with a slick of the glittery, melancholi­c radiance of acts like Mazzy Star and The Cure.
