Washington

If you think Megan Washington's latest album 'Batflowers' sounds like a cross between a celebration of eery intimacy and mourning for it, you'd be pretty well right.

Washington's third studio album ‘Batflowers' is an immersive pop record that brings you into this vivid kaleidoscope world she's created. Layered by raw vulnerability and DIY production, she unravels all of her thoughts in a very cohesive and impressive manner.

I was still in High School when Washington first started making a name for herself with the singles “Clementine” and “How To Tame Lions”. A lot has changed in the decade since those singles put her at the pinnacle of Australian pop.

It's been a little while in between shows for Washington and following the release of her recent synth-layered singles she's ready to get reacquainted with audiences again. Hitting the road for a trio of East Coast shows, she returned home playing for a packed Brisbane crowd at The Foundry.

Dirty Churches' feels like a turning point for Washington.

We’ve watched her transform from an adorable musical nerd playing the Oxford Arts Factory to an absolutely breathtaking artist selling out the Sydney Opera House in just two years.

It’s a Wednesday night and I’m in a line out the front of The Gov that stretches so far some people are on Port Road.
