Put them on tour together and you either have a recipe for hilarious disaster, or just a bloody good time. �Join us for a night you won’t forget any time soon!
ABOUT MAJELEN:
If you asked Majelen what her music feels like, she’d say it’s a sonic journey—imagine Ani DiFranco’s lyrical fire meets Ed Sheeran’s heart-on-sleeve storytelling, with a dash of acoustic doof doof.
Picture this: romantic wanderers, their hearts thumping to a rhythm of adventure and love, moving through mountaintop sunrises, coastal sunsets, and the wild Australian outback. It’s the soundtrack of backpackers chasing both dreams and horizons, all wrapped up in Majelen’s one-of-a-kind sound.
A graduate of the prestigious Conservatorium of Music, Majelen's roots are in jazz guitar, but her heart beats for the raw energy of acoustic music. She’s crafted a signature playing style that defies convention—her right hand doesn’t just strum; it drums, creating a rich, percussive landscape that makes her live performances a force of nature. It’s a rhythmic technique that transforms her shows into a dynamic, immersive experience, leaving audiences entranced.
Her songs are more than just music—they’re stories that invite reflection and joy. With lyrics that stir the soul, melodies that soar, and a pulse that drives you forward, Majelen’s music is an uplifting escape into her world of wanderlust and wonder.
Her debut studio album, recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London, is set for release February 2025, distributed under her own Australian-based label, Liondance Records. The industry is already taking note: she’s been nominated for Musician of the Year and Breakout Artist of the Year at the 2024 Gold Coast Music Awards, while her tracks have charted in the top 100 across Australia, Europe, Canada, the USA, and the UK. She’s even collaborated with Australian guitar maker Cole Clark Guitars, resulting in her own signature “Majelen” model, and has caught the eye of top-tier brands like Sheeran Loopers.
Having toured extensively through the UK, Europe, and the USA in 2023 and early 2024 and supporting Xavier Rudd, Majelen is now gearing up for an exciting run of shows across Australia and beyond in 2025. Her music isn’t just a performance; it’s an invitation to join her on a journey—and there’s no telling where it will take you next.

Tessa finds the sweet spot in those serendipitous slips of the tongue during her performances, whilst plucking ordinary memories and turning them into an experience that defies convention.
