Seeker Lover Keeper (enhanced)

Seeker Lover Keeper is an amazing new project featuring Sarah Blasko, Holly Throsby and Sally Seltmann. Individually, they're three of Australia's most innovative songwriters. Sally Seltmann specialises in narcotic, dreamy, sweeping pop, aided by layers of cotton-soft vocals, pianos and synths. Holly Throsby is known for summoning melodies that sound beautifully crumpled, worn and decades-old, and matching them with hushed, cutting lyrics that read like a Carver short story. Sarah Blasko writes haunting songs that veer from intimate ballads to orchestral showstoppers, and sings with what's now one of the most recognisable voices in Australian music. All three are distinct talents, but there are common threads between their songwriting too: an underlying sense of nostalgia; the golden, sing-along pop tunes; and the complicated lyrics about seeking love, and how difficult it is to hold onto it once you've got it. It makes sense that the three of them would be good friends already. But get them together in the studio or on stage, and you've got an entirely new band: Seeker Lover Keeper. Seeker Lover Keeper was recorded over two hot weeks in New York with Jim White (The Dirty Three) on drums and Shahzad Ismaily (Tom Waits, Martha Wainwright, Bonnie Prince Billy) on bass and guitar. Victor Van Vugt (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Sarah Blasko) was recruited as producer. Holly, Sarah and Sally all shared piano and other guitar duties and all provided additional production
