RISING | Suki Waterhouse - Melbourne 2025
Beloved British cool girl, Suki Waterhouse is jetting to RISING. After the runway shows, the hits and the heartbreaks, she’s back leaning even harder into the ephemeral punch of her music. Over two nights, she’ll light the mirror balls and showcase her new album Memoirs of a Sparklemuffin with her full band. One intimate show Athenaeum on the sixth of June, then and an extravaganza at PICA the next night.
Suki’s new set is a knowing nod to the nicotine-stained image of a “model, actress, whatever” growing up in the public eye. It embraces the sweeping Americana of her debut but widens canvas. From surges of late-90s alt, into Mazzy Star-style dream pop, ‘70s soft rock and flute-wielding folk jams—all delivered with heartfelt wit and
dipped in reverb. Like she’s floating on an enchanted lake, surrounded by fireflies, sipping kombucha. Sighing at the tabloid fodder. Ready to rock the lily pad.
