Annie-Rose Maloney writes country-ish music about the deep kernels of pain we all carry around in our pockets. Fast becoming an alt-folk favourite in the Australian scene, Annie-Rose has already supported the likes of Angie McMahon, Angel Olsen and Ruby Gill winning plenty of fans despite having only released music sporadically over the years.

The singer songwriter was born and raised in Geelong, growing up on Wudawurrung country in the Barrabool Hills, she found her love for songwriting around the same time she was developing her love for nature, sports and learning about the inner workings of self. 

Finding popularity with Bellarine Penisnula toe-tapping Alt country folk-rock outfit Murdena alongside brother Hug , the siblings always had an affection for music and can’t remember a time when they weren’t humming along, strumming, or whacking something to create songs.

Maloney says of her music “I appreciate stillness, pulsing rhythm and clear melodies. I intentionally marry my music and words together so that the messages of my songs can be heard and felt with clarity.”

With recent festival appearances at Lockhart Music Festival, Bambra's Meadow Music Festival and coming off a National tour with Angie McMahon and with  new music on the horizon, audiences and critics eagerly await her upcoming body of work
