This September and October, Adelaide based soul-stirring singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist JAMIE LENA KERSLAKE offers audiences an intimate, early preview of her highly anticipated debut alt-folk record, The Ruins of an Over-Enthused Heart.
The Ruins of an Over-Enthused Heart serves as a container for the compulsory human experience of examining and excavating old habits. Mixed and mastered by Nick Herrera (Emma Donovan, Danika, Nai Palm), this record is a gentle yet persistent unravelling of inherited beliefs about relationship, grief and politics.
While the recorded album boasts gracious strings, full band arrangements, and sleek backing vocals, this tour brings each song back to its roots - just Jamie, her intricate guitar arrangements, and a voice likened to “milk and honey”. Audiences will experience the tunes as they were written; at once a knife, and salve, and an elixir.
Jamie has played festivals such as St Kilda Festival, and Womadelaide, and supported artists including Ruby Mary Gill, Jack Davies, and Allysha Joy. Her debut EP earned airplay on triple j, landed in APRA’s top 10 Regional Charts, and gained recognition in the South Australian music awards.
Jamie will be supported by local talent, mikk.
We can’t wait to welcome Jamie and Mikk to our gorgeous venue this Oct long weekend for a night of wonderful music.
