Presenting: Kelly Saunders

Kelly Saunders is not from here, and not from now. Her voice is like a ghost from the past, haunting, rich, and otherworldly. Her debut self-titled album is out digitally NOW, exclusively from Broken Stone Records.

Born in Sydney, Saunders grew up in Fiji and Indonesia before returning Australia at the age of seven. After a sojourn to Hong Kong, and a long stopover in Spain, Saunders has settled in London, where she records her music at home.

Saunders' charmingly haunting ditties anchor what is otherwise a vagabond’s life. The album is a rich patchwork of folk music history. The opener, ‘Morning Lane’, is a profound gospel in a cappella, and the lead single,‘Different Drum’, is a chamber-like soundscape of soul-singing pop -- both of these tracks are available for free download!

You can download Kelly’s debut 10 track LP NOW in various HQ digital formas for only $6.99AUD: go to http://kellysaunders.brokenstonerecords.com

Kelly will be returning to Australia this September.

Stay tuned to brokenstonerecords.com for release dates of a limited edition vinyl pressing to coincide with her arrival.

Matt Oniel of Time Out Gushes:

"The utter surrealist genius of Sydney psyche-popsters Richard In Your Mind, however, rapidly transports any lingering disappointment... into distant irrelevance. The quartet appear on stage amidst a storm of mind-bending psychedelia – frontman Richard Cartwright murmuring down a megaphone as analogue synthesisers, warped slide guitar and throbbing krautrock rhythms gracelessly totter into each other in the background. It’s a brilliant introduction that ultimately presages a truly brilliant set from one of the country’s most exceptional bands.


Richard Cartwright is forever the centrepiece of proceedings – blathering madly about disco planets and primary schools between songs and plucking daintily at an acoustic guitar during the band’s instrumental flights of fancy. The band’s closing number, meanwhile, is a legitimate contender for live performance of the year – audience members invited to play percussion and stomp along to a largely a capella performance by Cartwright in a conclusion as fittingly surreal as it is undeniably brilliant."
