Local Sweetheart's debut EP Here and Now melds dreamy pop with indie folk intimacy. It’s what’s playing in the kitchen at bedtime and while you lie on the grass looking up at the night sky with your lover beside you.
A familiar presence on Naarm’s grassroots stages Local Sweetheart continues to build community through music, affirming the experiences too often left unheard.
Supported by local icons Guthrie and Birdgirl, and featuring a Queer Artists Market, this launch celebration is a chance for queer and neurodivergent community, and their friends, to gather, connect, and enjoy music that reflects their lived experiences.
Supported by a City of Melbourne Arts Grants.
