I have been a huge fan of The Preatures for a while now and have championed them ever since I heard their summer anthem "Is This How You Feel" for the first time. This Australian 5 piece have just put out their debut album 'Blue Planet Eyes' and it is incredibly good. They have a style that is immediately identifiable within the first few seconds of hearing one of their songs, yet they haven't fallen into the trap of making all their songs sound the same because it worked the first time. Front woman Isabella "Izzi" Manfredi's voice is a so powerful and strong, even raspy at times, reminding me a bit of Stevie Nicks, while the band have often been dubbed the Australian HAIM, I like to think they are a bit more unique and find comparisons a bit lazy, but i can see the connection. I have seen this band live a couple of times and the energy they bring is so infectious they get the whole crowd dancing and singing their lungs out. The group have already experienced a credible amount of success off the back of their self titled EP, which saw them doing the rounds on the festival circuit both locally and internationally, landing a spot on the infamous Coachella lineup and playing Australia's Splendour in The Grass festival. The Preatures are set to return home for a national tour in November and believe me, you don't want to miss it!
