Erin Badman

Contemporary R&B meets dream pop in this Sydney artist's sound, carried by a soprano with enough range to hold both vulnerability and strength in the same phrase. Support slots for MTV Unplugged acts sit among her credits, alongside work with international producers such as The Twilite Tone, a partnership that has shaped the immersive, layered production behind her songs. That production gives the songs an intimate, emotionally driven character, built around wide-ranging vocals rather than a stripped-back arrangement. Jazz bars and electronic spaces both suit the set equally well, the performance adjusting to wherever it's booked rather than staying fixed to one style.
