Globally adored for her commanding voice, virtuosic guitar work and uncompromising bravery, English singer-songwriter Anna Calvi will be showcasing her latest masterpiece Hunter for Australian audiences this June as she pairs a performance at Tasmania's Dark Mofo festival alongside intimate shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
Exploring freedom, identity and gender with an approach that has become uniquely her own, Hunter arrived in mid-2018 to rapturous critical acclaim.
Calvi's signature vocals, so bold and striking, permeate the record as they dart and weave around her dazzling guitar playing and synchronize perfectly with world class accompaniment from Portishead's Adrian Utley (keys) and The Bad Seeds' Martyn Casey (bass).
"Being on stage is the one time I feel permitted to be the person I can’t be in my everyday life", she says. "Onstage I want to test how far I can take the extremes of strength and vulnerability."
