Tamara & the Dreams is stepping back into the spotlight — louder, softer, realer than ever.
After a long break spent soul searching, travelling, grieving, growing, Melbourne’s indie-pop darling returns with her first headline show of the year, launching her long-awaited banger Successful Bisexual — a confessional anthem for anyone who’s ever wanted too much and felt it all too hard.
“I want the warmth of a thousand suns,” she sings — and she means it. This track burns with big yearning and bigger dreams: of charisma leaking through the cracks, of one-night stands and sapphic situationships, of tattoos, nostalgia, van-life, and emotional chaos in Melbourne's inner north. It’s the sound of a nostalgia-pilled chronically online dreamer who can turn every moment into a coming-of-age scene — all effervescence, luminescence, and the belief that you will never stop becoming who you are.
Live, Tamara turns it up a notch — part pop star, part houseparty philosopher. Her sets feel like reading your best friend’s diary while crying glitter tears in a Brunswick bathroom. With glam-rock powerhouse Pollyman in support, expect messy beauty, cathartic singalongs, and the kind of night where you might just fall a little bit in love — with the band, with the crowd, or maybe even yourself.
