Gamilaraay singer-songwriter Thelma Plum will perform a special live show at Apple Sydney on September 7th as part of the ‘Today at Apple’ series.
Plum, whose track “Better in Blak” made history as the highest-ranking song by an Indigenous artist in the triple J Hottest 100, will take the stage at 6pm on September 7th, offering fans an intimate live experience.
The event, hosted by Apple Music Radio’s Anna Lunoe, will also include a conversation with Plum about her creative journey, the influences behind her alt-pop sound, and the stories that shape her music. Attendees will also be able to hear Plum’s playlist in Spatial Audio with AirPods Max.
This performance follows the release of Plum’s latest single, “Freckles,” a song she describes as a love letter to the kind of acceptance that sees you for who you truly are.
“Freckles,” which Plum co-wrote with long-time collaborator Alex Burnett and London-based producer Oli Horton, is the third single from her upcoming album I’m Sorry, Now Say It Back, which is due out on October 18th through Warner Music Australia. Like her debut Better in Blak, the album is expected to explore themes of identity, personal growth, and resilience.
Reflecting on the album, Plum shared, “This record has been a long time in the making. It was created with love, heartache, forgiveness, and care in mind. It’s personal and kind of like I’m sharing pages from my diary with you, but it’s time for it to fly free.”
I’m Sorry, Now Say It Back follows her critically acclaimed debut, which garnered seven ARIA nominations and featured three platinum singles.
In addition to the Apple Sydney performance, Plum is scheduled to appear at triple j’s One Night Stand in Warrnambool on September 12th and will play several shows in Far North Queensland in early October. Tickets for these performances are available through her website.
