Liz Stringer is one of Australia’s most admired and versatile songwriters and instrumentalists. Hailing from Melbourne and recently located to London, Stringer counts seminal artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and Midnight Oil (with whom she toured the world as backing vocalist and occasional instrumentalist between 2020 and 2022) as fans. Her most recent album, 2021’s First Time Really Feeling, released through Courtney Barnett’s Milk! Records, won an Australian Independent Record Award and debuted at #14 on the ARIA charts in her home country. Stringer recorded the follow-up full-length album in Brixton, London in Summer 2023 with award-winning UK-based producer Beni Giles. Due for an early 2025 release, this record sees her lean further into her influences not yet explored in her recorded music, including soul, funk and jazz, marking a musical departure while maintaining her extraordinary storytelling at the heart of each track. Liz Stringer’s notoriously powerful live performances and melodically rich, story-based songs have earned her a unique place among the most important Australian songwriters of the modern era and she is thrilled to be playing her first headline show in Manchester with her brand new band, following up on an EU/UK tour with fellow Melburnians The Teskey Brothers in August and September this year.
