A prolific artist and singular voice in the world of Australian music, June Jones has just released her sophomore album Leafcutter which she is launching in Castlemaine with an afternoon show at The Bridge Hotel on Sunday 25th April.

Despite this being Jones’s first self-produced record, Leafcutter feels in many ways like a logical sequel to her previous releases, which include two albums with Two Steps on the Water, the self-proclaimed “emotion punk” band she fronted from 2014 to 2018.

"Fans of John Grant, Kate Bush and Björk will find a lot to love here — Leafcutter is by very definition art pop, but it never ventures out of the realm of accessibility." - Beat

Like her past albums, Leafcutter is a collection of songs exploring different aspects of her experience as “a deeply emotional trans woman, a lesbian with ADHD.” Her signature vocals – dynamic in their ability to move between syrupy cool and impassioned exclamation – are present as ever at the forefront of this record.

This show is taking place on stolen land belonging to the Djadjawurrung people of the Kulin Nations. We pay our respects to elders past and present. Sovereignty has never been ceded.
