    Love her song Avant Gardener! She is smart and quirky. She'll be doing good music for a while!

    Her music is so wonderful and clever. She's such a unique artist. I'd love to see her live!

    only song i really really like by her is Pedestrian at Best. The other two songs/singles weren't too bad but that one stuck out for me.

    I like the tracks ''Depreston'' (which is based on a suburb of Melbourne called Preston) and "Nobody Really Cares If You Don't Go To The Party".
    Avant Gardener is brilliant as well.

    I saw her new video on the weekend. First time I've heard her new song.
    I liked it.

    She dropped an album on the weekend too. From what I've heard, it sounds like a great follow up to Sometimes I Sit and Think and Sometimes I just Sit.

    I checked out a few tracks on YouTube and nothing blew me away tbh.

    I like her, but can only listen to her music in smaller doses, 3 or 4 songs at a time, otherwise her voice starts to annoy me.
    Great songwriter and storyteller and she has some absolute gems in her catalogue. Haven't listened to all of her new album yet, but have liked some of the songs I have heard

    Do you find people you know hate her? That's my experience.

    haha, yep, I'm the only person I personally know that likes her. Everyone else I know in Brisbane, thinks she's terrible
