In a world of disposable pop and middle-of-the-road rock, the authentic tunes of Jez Mead are somewhat of a revelation. He’s been an independent force for years, but now this poetic sage is taking his music to the masses.
Jez is set to release his debut EP Sucker on September 4, and he’s winging his way around the country to celebrate. The disc is the first release on Jez’s own label Belly Up Records, which works in conjunction with EMI Music Australia. But there’s more to come, with Jez set to release his debut album Beard of Bees early next year.
