Stella Interrupted. 2024.

In 2006 we released our second album ‘Longing Was a Safe Place to Hide’ and then we broke up. Everything to do with the band had become difficult and it was obvious we could not keep going.

After 13 years we were convinced by long term supporter Craig Kamber to reform and play Melbourne Music Week in 2019. It was a success with fans flying in from all over the country to see the band play. We had a lot of fun and the crowd was just wonderful. However, it was also obvious that the original line up could not continue and the band once again came to a stop.

I recorded a selection of songs and started working with producer and mixer Mikey Young. Jamie, who had also been working on and releasing his own solo work for a few years started to contribute opinions, ideas and expertise. Then so did Jesse. We started writing together again and the album started to take shape but most importantly excitement returned. I really love playing with them both and am grateful we’ve had the chance to make this recording.

After living in different states for years, they both moved back ‘home’ to the Mornington Peninsula and a playful, creative rapport returned with them.

The album has been engineered by the three of us mostly in the room that adjoins my kitchen over the past 4 years. Some bits and pieces were put down in the Grampians, North Melbourne or around the corner in Luke Buckley’s garage. It has been aided by synth related exploration through the pandemic and a few friends that contributed to the recording: Sarah Heyward, Misty Jenkins, Philip Brophy, Luke Buckley and my Dad!

We hope you like ‘Stella Interrupted’ when it comes out April 6th... It has appeared some 18 years after ‘Longing’…but better late than never.

 Love from Sianna
