Claire catches up with Seekae before they perform at Homebake, where they talk about their album, recording in the UK, their live shows and much more....

As soon as I entered the Corner Hotel I was greeted by a throbbing beat and a violent strobe light. Instantly, and without any sort of chemical cradle, it felt as if I were on the verge of an epileptic fit. I knew that seeing Seekae was going to be an intense experience immediately.

Splendour In The Grass got off to a super muddy start for the second day, but this time, I was ready; prepared with some brand new boots after the Vans I had on the Friday were sacrificed to the vengeful festival god.

In this month's edition of "The AU Monthly Review", we look back over the month of May, which unfortunately got off to a sombre start...

Seekae is a Sydney gem. A diamond, a ruby... Look, take your pick of expensive stone, and come up with your own appraising metaphor. Their ability to develop introspective narratives from warped electronica throws them into an alternate universe, as their contemporaries gaze from afar.
