JBCM Presents

🍂 @hana.stretton will be hitting the road late next month on her debut run around Australia. Hana’s music is truely sublime and has soundtracked many quieter moments over these past years ~ it feels very special to have these intimate shows ahead of us. Melbourne , Chewton , Brisbane (supporting @catelebon ), Eltham, Sydney , Thirroul , Braidwood & finishing up in Canberra. Joining Hana on the run will be Alice Barlow (out from the UK @alice____barlow ). Small shows / tix on sale & limited . We hope you can make it along ! 🎟️ Hana Stretton is an accomplished Australian-British multi-instrumentalist, songwriter & producer. Born and raised on a farm in New South Wales, Hana’s early life was steeped in natural beauty and isolation, which has become the influence for much of her music. Her work reflects a deep connection to her roots. Hana made her debut record, Soon, outside, in still moments after fires and wild storms had raged through her home in the Australian bush. Completely isolated with just her beloved cows and a few instruments, recording music became a way to pass the hours. The album was self-released in January 2023, with a vinyl run by boutique Australian label brierfield flood press. The following year, P.W. Elverum & Sun (the private press of Phil Elvrum aka Mount Eerie) re-issued a special edition vinyl, selling out almost instantly. Upon release, Elvrum explained his admiration for Hana’s music: “I hear an artist who has entered completely into the stream where creation originates […] Hana Stretton has truly recorded the deep flourishing sound of a quiet listening mind in full blossom. Alice Barlow is a singer-songwriter, composer and producer from South East London known for her captivating live performances. Drawing on folk, indie and alternative influences - her dark guitar tones, haunting vocals and unique ear for melody have built a loyal following in London and beyond. With new singles on the way, she is set to release her eagerly awaited debut album on Domino Records this winter. This will be her first time in Aust 🎨 thank you @georgejgillies

🌀 May will be spent with the magical @mapleglider (solo) rollicking around the northern parts, dancing across the border between her very exciting 3 week residency at @elthamhotelnsw . Very excited for these intimate nights ahead, very special guests joining Tori (tba very soon :) and our first ever show at @bellingen_golfclub . All shows bar one are all ages , tickets on sale now ~ we can’t wait to see you along the way 🧡 This tour unfolds through a collection of intimate venues — places where community runs deep and creativity quietly thrives. Maple Glider begins her tour with a special residency series at The Eltham Hotel, one of three residency stops along the tour that will also spotlight some of our favourite local talent. From there, she’ll carry the energy and perhaps a few new songs gathered along the way, under her delicate wing as she continues on the rest of her intimate Aus tour. For Tori Zietsch, who records emotionally direct and woozily romantic songs under the moniker Maple Glider, music has been an escape from a series of oppressive institutions: religion, enervating relationships, her own brain. Zietsch’s music has formed new pathways both literal and metaphorical; physical and neural, that have allowed her to step outside herself, and shake you— yes, you, the listener—by the hand. Striking emotionality is at the centre of her performance, leaning into an intimacy that is achieved by way of deeply personal reflections and velvety melodic compositions. Vocals melt into layers of plucked acoustic guitar and lulling piano, drawing on the sombre styles of folk contemporaries with a stark tenderness and introspection that assumes the listener is inside her bedroom as she plays for herself. 🎨 thanks you @amerypress for this beautiful poster 📸 @joeymartinez 🎟️

One of the best ever 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💎 @catelebon returns to Australian shores and Meanjin/Brisbane this June to be apart of the @openseasonbrisbane 2026 programme with a show at @theprincessbrisbane on June 2nd. We cannot wait to have Cate and the band back , their last trip out was 4 years ago and still such a memorable couple of days . Drop by our website for Pre-Sale & General Sales tickets and info ! Welsh multi-disciplinary artist and producer Cate Le Bon’s work has long defied categorisation—an architect of sound who builds emotional landscapes from abstraction, texture, and tone. Over six albums, including the Mercury Prize-nominated Reward and the critically acclaimed Pompeii, she has honed a singular voice: part surrealist, part sculptor, always attuned to the emotional undercurrents that shape her art. Her production credits—spanning Wilco’s Cousin, Horsegirl’s Phonetics On and On, and St. Vincent’s Grammy-winning All Born Screaming—reflect a deep trust in her ability to transform sonic environments into intimate, idiosyncratic worlds. Born in rural Carmarthenshire, Wales, and now based in Cardiff, Le Bon’s creative path has been shaped by both solitude and collaboration. Her longstanding partnerships with co-producer Samur Khouja and saxophonist Euan Hinshelwood have become integral to her evolving sound—a blend of analog warmth, filtered vocals, and sculptural arrangements that feel both alien and deeply human. Her seventh album, Michelangelo Dying, emerges from a place of raw emotion and reluctant vulnerability. A vivid grieving of a fantasy, the album is a shimmering song cycle that picks at wounds even as it tries to preserve them—an iridescent, layered meditation on love, loss, and the unknowable self.

🌌 @discoveryz0ne will be bringing her sonic bliss all the way from NYC to the Northern Rivers @coorabellhall2479 on her debut trip to Australia with special guest Andras on June 12th; an ambient night which we are so happy to be apart of. Friends and local favourites @_florecords (DJs) with @the_salty_mangrove are onboard for early sounds and food & drinks to make the evening full to the brim of magic. “Library Copy Do Not Remove” by Discovery Zone is out in full today via @rvngintl 🎧 Discovery Zone is the experimental pop project of New York musician and multimedia artist JJ Weihl. After the slow-building but undeniable fervor around her debut album Remote Control, Discovery Zone released her second album Quantum Web on RVNG Intl. and Mansions and Millions in 2024, followed by an expanded version in 2025. On Quantum Web, Discovery Zone plunged into an uncanny valley, where the distinctions between the earnest and the ironic blur in tandem with the human and the post-human. On stage, Discovery Zone explores a widescreen pop sound speckled with luminous vocal performances and baroque instrumental flourishes. She utilizes a laboratory of instruments and 3D visuals to explore the universe as a source of information. Library Copy Do Not Remove, Discovery Zone’s new album, arrives today May 15th on @rvngintl . Andras (Andrew Wilson) is an Aus musician working the gap between dance and ambient music. Using a wide variety of aliases (including Wilson Tanner, Berko, Art Wilson) his releases are increasingly concerned with breaking and reassembling an Australian vernacular sound and identity. Born in suburban Melbourne in 1988 to Hungarian-Australian parents, much of his output digs around in his own backyard - a garden replete with native and introduced species, flowers, compost and worms of melody underfoot. In addition to his production work, Andrew has hosted radio shows, composed soundtracks for contemporary dance, and compiled reissues of Australian music for the cult label Efficient Space. Wilsons tongue-twisting label imprint Punp was conceived as a way to self-release his music. 🎟️ + Info : 🎨 thanks to @dingobalearico

🇦🇺🦘@cutworms + @johnjandrews debut AUS tour coming up in July ! @frankswildyearsrecordbar sold out with Melbourne + Eltham shows selling fast. We’ve got both of their wonderful 2026 released records spinning while we count down til kick off ! 🎟️ @howlermelbourne @thebridgehotelcastlemaine @ganggangcafe @theblackbearlodge @frankswildyearsrecordbar @mapleton.pub @elthamhotelnsw @thecitadel.murbah @oldstonehall_beechworth @elm_house_

🐎🪩 @yinyinband are Mullumbimby & Brisbane bound this November on their debut tour of Aus !!!!!! Special guests TBA 🎟️

A couple of nights in the calendar this June with the incredible @hotcocoacartel on her debut trip to Australia . *Tickets to the midweek @brunswickpicturehouse show are moving fast 💨 local favourites @saint_maries on food & bar for the night with supports to both shows tba very soon :) London-based polymath anaiis (whose name appears in lowercase as a tribute to educator, author and activist bell hooks) makes the kind of music that speaks to an innate sense of wonder. On her latest album Devotion & The Black Divine, the songs swell with emotional clarity as she lovingly pushes herself beyond the edges of her comfort zone. Recorded live-to-tape at London’s 5db Studios, the record feels like a conversation with the natural world, our inner selves, and the power of recognising one’s own divinity. anaiis draws from the collective consciousness, and this time, that depth rests on a growing sense of homecoming. Not to a place, but to the self. Born in Toulouse and raised between Dakar, Dublin and Oakland, her life in motion informs every note. After her 2018 debut “Nina”, she released this is no longer a dream in 2021. She went on to support Daniel Caesar on his UK tour and headlined a sold‑out Barbican show, then spoke at TEDxLondonWomen in London’s Southbank centre. She has toured with Mereba, performed at SXSW London in 2025, and delivered two acclaimed COLORS sessions for “vanishing” and “chuu”. The new album reflects a deeper commitment to intuition and continues a transition that began in Brazil, where anaiis created a collaborative mini-album with Grupo Cosmo through live improvisation and her newborn son in tow. Each release adds dimension to the whole, tracing a lineage of diasporic collaboration and cross-cultural kinship. 🎟️

@catelebon with special guest @hana.stretton 🧡🧡 WHAT A DREAM ! June 2nd @theprincessbrisbane @openseasonbrisbane

🇳🇱🪩🐎 At long last @yinyinband are on their way to Australia ! We’ve been huge fans since their debut album “the rabbit that hunts tigers” was released way back in 2019 ~ so it’s a dream to have them on their way to us for these November dates! Mullumbimby + Brisbane we hope you can get along for a big old boogie >> we caught the band 2 years ago in Japan at Fuji Rock festival ; their live show is incredible and they’re definately one of the funnest live bands I’ve seen in a long time :) To top it all off our friends at @elthamhotelnsw will be doing a pop up at the Mullum show to keep us all fed and hydrated; lots to be excited for ! 🧡 Pre-Sale , Thurs 23rd April @ 9am General Onsale , Friday 24th April @ 9am 🎟️ Dutch groove explorers YĪN YĪN have announced their first ever Australian shows, bringing their highly anticipated fourth album, Yatta! to stages in Sydney, Brisbane and Mullumbimby. Fresh off a global run that’s taken them through festivals like Fuji Rock Festival and North Sea Jazz Festival, the Maastricht quartet continue to build on a sound that pulls from disco, funk, psychedelia and Southeast Asian influences, all grounded by an irresistible, steady groove. Yatta! is described as their most cohesive work yet. The album leans into Italo disco textures, warped guitar lines and club-ready rhythms, while still offering moments for deeper, more introspective listening. It is a record crafted equally for dancing and for getting lost in the music. Over the past few years, YĪN YĪN earned a reputation as an essential live act, consistently playing to packed venues across Europe, Asia, and the US. This upcoming Australian tour marks their exciting return, featuring both their celebrated new material and a deeper dive into their expansive catalogue. Don’t miss your chance to catch YĪN YĪN on their first Australian tour.

🧢🦋 We’ll be scooting along the east coast to some of our favourite spots @elthamhotelnsw @thejunkbar + @mapleton.pub with a solo @imphoebego in the second half of June. 2/3rds of these shows are *All Ages too >> we hope you can join us to hear some of these deep cuts stripped back in some cosy locations . Tix on sale now :) 🎟️ Ahead of her forthcoming album, Phoebe Go is hitting the Australian east coast for a one-off run of intimate solo shows. Unguarded and up-close, these shows lean into the quiet tension at the heart of Phoebe’s songwriting; the struggle to make something honest and the triumph of doing it anyway. Across seven dates - including regional stops - she’ll perform solo in a series of intimate rooms, bringing new songs to life for the first time while sharing the stories behind them.
