Postcolonial Blues by Second Idol

Postcolonial Blues is a raw and reflective anthem that contemplates colonialism and the weight of history. Vocalist, lyricist, and guitarist Kate, a second-generation Australian of Sri Lankan and Scottish heritage, channels the complexities of her identity and experiences of growing up in country NSW.

Second Idol is known for their emotive performances drenched in venom and melancholy, and unleashing a fusion of alternative rock, goth, grunge and post-punk influences. Informed by feminism, queerness and cross-cultural identity, the band transverses concepts of power, gender and otherness.
