Take a moment to shut the rest of the world out and listen to “For Now,” the latest single from Melbourne songstress BATTS. This track sees BATTS veering slightly away from the electronic music she’s famous for and getting back to a more organic sound. I’ve always appreciated her voice, but this is the first time I’ve really felt emotionally connected to what she does. This is great stuff.
In celebration of the single, BATTS will play Some Velvet Morning every Sunday in April, starting tonight. Every show is free, so Melbourne residents have no excuse for missing them!

BATTS Say Hello and Goodbye
Don’t you just hate discovering an act, only to have them up and leave? That’s the case with BATTS, a collaboration between Aussie musician Tanya Batt and British producer and instrumentalist Alisdair “Ficci” Mason. They’ve actually never played a show here, but they’re going to squeeze in just one before Tanya moves to the United Kingdom to work with Ficci full time.
If you like what you hear, head to BATTS’ debut and farewell show at the Shadow Electric on January 22. They’ll play with a superstar line-up including Hayden Calnin, Will Cuming (Lanks) and Lacklan O’Kane (Eagle and the Worm, Canary, Dorsal Fins). Canary and Zlatna will also provide support on the night. Tickets are just $10 on the presale or $15 on the door.
