“With an edgy and overarching cinematic resonance… they blur the borders between soul, jazz, pop and funk” The Australian Review April 2018

“One of our finest vocalists.” Bernard Zuel SMH

Songwriter and vocalist, Tina Harrod, celebrates her breathtaking new album CITY OF LONGING, with a launch encore concert – as many missed out when The Basement closed, moving the original launch to a smaller venue.

Produced by brilliant composer/arranger/pianist Stu Hunter, Tina's fifth album takes her songwriting and mind-blowing vocal skills to another plane. City of Longing is an emotionally charged, soul-wrenching set with real musical depth, performed by creative and adventurous musicians.

“Alongside her spearing lyrics, a huge slice of the credit goes to her chief collaborator, Stu Hunter, one of Australia's most imaginative and ambitious composers... Burning through the dazzling arrangements comes Harrod's voice, a blowtorch of intensity that can subside to moments of affecting tenderness. “ J Shand Sydney Morning Herald April 2018

The songs are delivered with cutting edge production in an aural landscape of cinematic breadth: Stu Hunter's innovative arrangements are outstanding. Tina is acknowledged as one of Australia's finest vocalists and she continues to find further seams to mine and depths to plumb within her craft. Her voice is a mature and powerful tool conveying emotions that many of us wouldn't dare feel. Brace yourself and grab a drink before listening...

Born in New Zealand with Fijian and Welsh heritage Tina is a multi-award winning Australian recording artist. Tina's five albums have received high critical acclaim with City of Longing released May 2018.

Tina has worked as a vocalist with Jimmy Barnes, Paul Kelly, Diesel, Vika & Linda Bull, Katie Noonan, Paul Grabowsky, The Whitlams, Guy Sebastian, Thirsty Merc, Wendy Matthews and Jackie Orszaczky.

She has performed her own music extensively in Australia and Europe including Sydney Opera House, Perth International Jazz Festival, Melbourne Jazz Festival, Sydney Festival, JazzAhead in Bremen, plus Sziget Festival, the Palace of Arts and Budapest Blues Festival in Hungary.
