D’Urberville is the lyrical alt-pop project of Adelaide songwriter, vocalist and trombonist Mallory Steele, exploring themes related to her own experiences of love and life.
In 2018 Mallory took part in Creative Original Music Adelaide’s Sound Alliance mentorship, working with concert pianist Ashley Hribar to develop her original music for D’Urberville, culminating in a live performance at The Wheatsheaf Hotel. The pair also filmed and recorded a live version of the track ‘Hunter’ to demonstrate their collaboration, a unique blend of pop songwriting and extended performance piano techniques.
Mallory also took out first place in the Songwriters Composers And Lyricists Association’s inaugural People’s Choice Song Competition in December 2018 with a performance of her jazz-pop composition ‘Plum Jam’.

About this track...
‘Hunter’ is about catching someone’s eye for the first time and feeling an immediate connection. A sudden flash of chemistry is something both inexplicably intimate and wildly daunting. This arrangement is a collaboration with concert pianist Ashley Hribar, using extended performance piano techniques to mirror the moods and textures of the song.
