The front-woman of a leading Australian alternative rock band in the late ‘90s and early 2000s returns to Geelong next week for a solo show.
Singer Sarah McLeod fronted The Superjesus as it won three ARIA Awards and released the hit Gravity, which reached number 35 on national charts in 2000.
She went on to collaborate with a series of other artists around Australia and overseas, which even resulted in a dance track that was number one in eastern Europe for 16 weeks.
McLeod returned with The Superjesus last year when it re-formed for a national tour. The band, which counted her as its primary songwriter, is due to release a new album this year.
McLeod’s promoter pointed out that she was also nominated for a Triple M Frontman/woman of the years against names like Dave Grohl and Jimmy Barnes, “proving that she’s a musical force to be reckoned with”.
She was back on the road this month and next for a “series of up-close-and-personal solo shows for her Alone and Unplugged tour, which features acoustic versions of songs from Sarah’s repertoire that have defined her journey so far,” the promoter said.
“Recently recorded and only available at the upcoming solo shows, fans will also be able to grab their own copy of Alone and Unplugged, the acoustic album.”
McLeod plays Geelong’s Workers Club on 28 July.
