Individually, they’re three of Australia’s most innovative songwriters. Sally Seltmann specialises in narcotic, dreamy, sweeping pop, aided by layers of cotton-soft vocals, pianos and synths. Holly Throsby is known for summoning melodies that sound beautifully crumpled, worn and decades old, and matching them with hushed, cutting lyrics that read like a Carver short story. Sarah Blasko writes haunting songs that veer from intimate ballads to orchestral showstoppers, and sings with what is now one of the most recognisable voices in Australian music.
All three are distinct talents, but there are common threads between their songwriting too: an underlying sense of nostalgia; the golden, sing-along pop tunes; and the complicated lyrics about seeking love, and how difficult it is to hold onto once you’ve got it. It makes sense that the three of them would be good friends already. But get them together in the studio or on stage, and you’ve got an entirely new band: Seeker Lover Keeper.
Seeker Lover Keeper was recorded in New York with Jim White on drums and Shahzad Ismaily on bass and guitar. Victor Van Vugt was recruited as producer alongside Holly, Sarah and Sally who all shared piano and other guitar duties.

About this track...
The new single ‘Even Though I’m a Woman’ is a catchy slice of pop, telling a story of the heart. Sung by Holly Throsby and written by Sally Seltmann, the video stars Aden Young as the centerpiece, acting out the storyline of a travelling salesman with eerie aplomb.
