City Sounds: Chelsea Costar, 2 November
Sunday, 12:00pm, 1:00pm and 2:00pm , outside the Wintergarden
With the intention of immortalising emotion through art, Meanjin creative, Chelsea Costar writes indie folk music for those with big souls. Instrumentals consisting of resonating guitars, lap steel and soft drums become a canvas for Chelsea’s tender lyrics paired with her captivating and shimmering vocals. Within her music you'll find love letters to what once was, what is and what is yet to come – entangled with feelings of warmth and intimacy.
With her discography of ‘The laundromat song’ and ‘Overgrown’ with Lily Wade, Chelsea shines with heart-on-sleeve lyricism over sundry guitars. Eternally working on new ways to inject the human experience into song, Chelsea's open, yet introspective writing takes you for a ride through her mind. Likening herself to the sounds of Stevie Nicks and Slow Pulp, Chelsea is the star girl to keep an eye and ear out for.
