  1. The Jezabels – “Hurt Me (acoustic)” Live in the UK

    June 17, 2011 by Steph

     
    The Jezabels played The Great Escape in Brighton, England a few weeks ago and there did a session with Right Guard’s “Off Guard Gigs” for “Hurt Me (acoustic).” They have a small set up with just small set-up of bongos, an acoustic guitar, battery-operated keyboard, and of course, Haley Mary’s soaring vocals.

    The band is finally working on their debut LP and I can’t wait!


  2. SXSW: The Jezabels

    March 20, 2011 by Steph

    I’ve been a fan of The Jezabels for a while, but this Sydney band has never made it to LA before. So when I found out they’d be playing at SXSW, I knew I had to see them. Total, I managed to catch 3.2 of their 6 sets. My favorite was one put on by KVRX at Cheer Up Charlie’s, which was totally outside of SXSW on the east side of sixth street and full of college kids partying at their favorite local bar. Although vocalist Hayley Mary battled some feedback from the mic, the set was amazing. Hayley moved to the music in a completely organic way, singing songs like “The Man is Dead,” “Hurt Me” and the single from their most recent EP “Dark Storm.” Each song seems epic and profound; The Jezabels’ moody pop is hypnotizing.

    Oh, yeah! They’re playing at The Satellite tomorrow (and Hotel Cafe on Wednesday) and I’ll be at the former. Besides The Jezabels as a draw, Damien Jurado will be headlining. Definitely a show not to miss!

  3. Song of the Week – The Jezabels’ “Mace Spray”

    October 19, 2010 by Steph

    The Jezabels - Dark StormIn honor of The Jezabels’ shows at CMJ this week, their single “Mace Spray” from their newest release the Dark Storm EP is our Song of the week.

    Sydney, Australia’s The Jezabels are set to head out on a national tour of Canada in support of Two Hours Traffic following the recent release of their new EP Dark Storm, out 10/1. The North American trip begins with several appearances at the CMJ Music Marathon before heading north to Canada for a show in Toronto and 8 dates as main support for Two Hours Traffic.

    The Jezabels have tirelessly toured Australia since the release of their EP She’s So Hard in November 2009. The band has supported artists like Tegan & Sara, Katie Noonan and Josh Pyke as well as selling out their own headlining shows. Additionally, the singles “Hurt Me” and “Easy to Love” from the EP She’s So Hard received heavy rotation on radio in Australia and abroad.

    The newest EP and the third of a trilogy of EPs (beginning with 2009’s The Man Is Dead) represents the band’s most confident outing to date–moody, mysterious, and epic, yet buzzing with the quartet’s ever-present knack for an irresistible pop hook.
