Mardi Lumsden is an alt-folk singer–songwriter from Brisbane, Australia . In 2010, Mardi Lumsden & the Rising Seas recorded their long-awaited second EP with producer Magoo (Operator Please, The Gin Club, Regurgitataor, Kate Miller- Heidke) at his Applewood studio, a converted church.
The Brisbane 5-piece released a cassingle at the Brisbane Powerhouse in April 2010 then the EP, called Wherever you go, there you are, at Queensland’s Old Museum on 29 May, alongside the group’s new video clip, filmed by India-based cinematographer Mark Lapwood (Evermore).
The EP’s closing track, Classified (WVTM), won the 2010 Q Song award in the Folk/Ballad section and was a finalist for the 2010 Song of the Year.
Live, Lumsden has been described as "a sanguine and superb songbird. Her voice has a delightful, whimsical lilt, as do her lyrics, which are about intimate, urbane experiences of late twenty-somethings. Her songs would complement, as a soundtrack, any Nick Earls or Rebecca Sparrow books." (lifemusicmedia.com 12 July 2009). Read more on Last.fm.
