Australian Artists

Ruby Gill

Currently on tour in the UK supporting Gordi, critically acclaimed Joburg-born, Victorian-based musician and best-selling poet Ruby Gill has announced Australian dates as part of her tour for new album Fishing is not about fishing.

Ruby Mary Gill has lived in Australia for 10 years to pursue music and parrots. She is a South Africa-born, Australian-based musician and poet whose “lyrical wizardry” has earned her the reputation of unmissable. A two-time nominee for the Australian Music Prize, and recent winner of Best Independent Country Album at the AIR Awards, Ruby Gill has made a name for her own genre of roguely spiritual, strange novella alt-folk, writing with unparalleled specificity, catchy prose and deadpan wit.

Jewel Owusu

Melbourne-based Filipino-Ghanaian artist and producer Jewel Owusu has announced her first Australian headline tour this November to support the release of her debut album ecosystem. The tour will see Jewel perform in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth.

Jewel Owusu has always lived in the in-between, moving across sounds, cultures and ever-evolving versions of herself. A Filipino-Ghanaian artist and producer, she creates alternative electronic indie pop that feels confessional, textured and unguarded. Born in Hong Kong, raised in New Zealand and now based in Melbourne, her sound reflects a life shaped by movement and diverse influences.

Following her sophomore EP the end of everything, Jewel has continued building her audience across new music and an expanding live show. Her performances have spanned Beyond The Valley, Pitch Music & Arts and St Kilda Festival, international shows and headline club dates, culminating in a 2026 headline performance at Melbourne’s Palais Theatre.
