Adalita, lead singer of seminal band Magic Dirt, has been one of Australia’s most respected and influential artists for nearly two decades. The release of her eponymous debut album in 2011 marked the advent of a remarkable new phase in an already illustrious career. The stark and heartfelt album earned her an AMP Award nomination and an AIR Award for Best Independent Album. In 2013, Adalita’s second album ‘All Day Venus’ blitzed the music scene, landing her an Age/Music Victoria award just a month after its release. Closing out 2014, she delivered a stirring keynote speech at the annual AIR Awards and received an ARIA Award Nomination for Best Female Artist. Adalita is currently writing and road testing new songs for her third solo album.

Adalita is a passionate supporter of the Amplify Divestment campaign, saying:

I can’t believe that banks still put money into coal mining when climate change is already causing so much harm. I don’t and won’t bank with them.
