Melbourne Duo ALTA Sign With Caroline Australia

Buzzworthy Melburnian two-piece ALTA are celebrating the news that they are the newest signees to Universal imprint Caroline Australia with the revelation of their brand new single Hold Your Fire.

The deal sees the duo — by now a staple of Melbourne's live scene, having performed with a veritable who's-who of esteemed peers — join an existing stable of acts such as Glass Animals, Mac DeMarco, Calling All Cars, St. Vincent and Jason Isbell, and comes after two EPs and a raft of successful performances at big events such as Strawberry Fields, Paradise Music Festival and Inca Roads, as well as turning international heads with their appearances at Soundwave Croatia, as openers for Tokimonsta in Vienna, and headlining in London.

ALTA — otherwise known separately as vocalist Hannah Lesser and producer Julius Dowson — are keeping busy in-studio getting ready for their next release, which is due early next year, but until then, crank Hold Your Fire (then crank it again) and keep an eye on theGuide or The Music App to keep abreast of when you can next catch the ascendant experimental electro-poppers in action.
