MAPLE GLIDER
FOLK
The Green Door Store, Brighton
With the release of new single "Don't Kiss Me", Maple Glider is pleased to announce a first run of shows outside of here home country Australia. September 2023 will see Maple Glider visit London, Brighton, Berlin, Paris, Brussels and finish at Reeperbahn Festival Hamburg.
New track “Don’t Kiss Me", the first new slice of original music from the Naarm/Melbourne-based artist since her breathtaking debut album To Enjoy is the Only Thing (Yes, there will be a new album in '23...). "Don't Kiss Me" takes Maple Glider’s sneaky-catchy psych-folk and turns it into a powerhouse slow-builder, and was written as a counterattack on unwanted sexual attention and the objectifying gaze (“I was just a baby until you made me into a lesson to be learned”). Those in Australia who’ve seen Maple Glider play live will remember the song as one of the most moving moments in the set - moved to feel sad, angry, and empowered all at once.
