“Visually stunning, with an air of mystery, eccentricity and intrigue” – GlamAdelaide (AUSTRALIA)
Adelaide, Australia’s BRILLIG are storytellers from another time, boldly twisting the traditional in Americana into an artful blend of WHISKEY SOAKED FOLK, rollicking SEA SHANTIES, toe-tapping COWBOY TUNES, and even more deliciously dark themes.
Featuring vocal harmonies & an array of instruments, BRILLIG channel a bygone-era poetic flair that’s polished for modern audiences. Their distinct sound tips a hat to an eclectic combination of styles, with the press comparing them to Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, The Decemberists, The Pogues, The Dresden Dolls and more.
​
BRILLIG are right at home with audiences who love catchy melodies, cheeky charm & something a little left of centre. Playing as a duo, trio or with a guest drummer, they suit any stage intimate or immense and have been spellbinding festival crowds across the globe.
