TOUR BIO

Hot on the heels of her brand new Abbey Road recorded single “If I Want In”, an athem to breaking from expectations and following you dreams, AIR-nominated singer-songwriter Imogen Clark returns for her first Sydney headline show in over a year, for her annual Holiday Hootenanny – an end of year celebration featuring an eclectic lineup of guest artists joining Imogen and her band to perform her songs, their songs and never to be repeated covers. Imogen will be joined by The Buckleys, CLEWS, Frenzal Rhomb’s Lindsay McDougall and Timothy James Bowen, with more guest artists to be announced. Imogen Clark is not just an artist; she's a storyteller, a fighter, and a dreamer. She spent her teen years at Penrith High by day, playing Western Sydney bars at night, learning how to make her voice heard and honing her chops as an electric live performer. Today, she stands as a testament to transcending familiar boundaries, driven by her roots and an unwavering ambition that led her to global stages from the US to Europe. Her songs, blending pop-rock and indie-pop, are like pages from her diary, capturing moments, memories, and confessions from her journey, battling anxiety and insecurity to fight for who she is and what she believes in, magnifying intimate emotions to arena level anthems. Inspired by legends like Bruce Springsteen and Sheryl Crow, as well as contemporary artists like Maggie Rogers and HAIM, Imogen's music is both immediate and timeless. Nothing showcases her determined spirit more than her achievements of the past three years. Two acclaimed EPs – 2020’s "The Making of Me" and 2021’s AIR-nominated "Bastards", her ambitious 100 Shows in 100 Days tour and her annual Holiday Hootenanny show, featuring guest artists such as Mo’Ju, Ali Barter, Montaigne, I Know Leopard, and Georgia Mooney. A sought-after collaborator, Imogen has worked with iconic figures and contemporary indie stars alike, including Alex Lahey, Colin Hay, Jim Keltner and members of Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers, Elvis Costello’s Imposters, Gang of Youths, Dawes, My Morning Jacket and more. As she gears up for her upcoming album, recorded in some of the world's most iconic studios, Imogen Clark continues to defy expectations, proving that she's just getting started.
