The Grammy Award-nominated Melbourne artist has been quietly revving up her full-scale return to the stage with a string of intimate shows at Levon Helm Studios and in Joshua Tree, and a date booked next month at Odeon Theatre in Hobart, Tasmania. Barnett emerged in the 2010s as one of Australia’s finest indie exports. Her debut full-length album from 2015, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit, peaked at No. 4 in Australia, and blasted into the top 20 in the United Kingdom and the United States, and won the Australian Music Prize, awarded to the best Australian album, regardless of critical success; along with a trio of ARIA Awards and a nomination for best international female at the BRIT Awards. Then, her solo follow-up from 2018, Tell Me How You Really Feel, cracked the top 10 in the United Kingdom, led several Billboard charts and peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard 200. A collaborative project with Kurt Vile, 2017’s Lotta Sea Lice, was another success story, reaching No. 5 in Australia, No. 11 in the U.K., and No. 51 in the U.S. There’s no word yet on when that next, fourth solo studio album will see the light of day.
