Eliza & The Delusionals at Space Ballroom

Hailing from Pottsville, NSW, Eliza & The Delusionals have carved out a distinctive place in the indie pop-rock scene since their formation in 2017. Anchored by the magnetic presence of Eliza Klatt (vocals, guitar), the band’s lineup includes Kurt Skuse (guitar) and Ruby Lee (bass). Their music blends emotionally resonant lyrics with soaring melodies, striking a chord with audiences both in Australia and abroad.

2019 marked their international breakthrough with the release of Just Exist. The track resonated globally, securing high rotation on American radio, including SiriusXM AltNation, where it topped the Alt18 charts for an impressive 14 weeks. The song’s success earned the band Q Music’s Rock Song of the Year and Breakout Artist of the Year at the Gold Coast Music Awards in 2020. Riding this wave, Eliza & The Delusionals made their North American debut, supporting Silversun Pickups on a month-long tour that solidified their presence on the international stage.

Despite plans for 2020 being curtailed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the band used the downtime creatively, crafting their debut album, Now And Then. Released in 2022, the album featured collaborations with industry heavyweights like Keith Harris (Black Eyed Peas) and Sarah Aarons (Zedd, Miley Cyrus). Critically acclaimed, Now And Then garnered a 4.5-star review from Rolling Stone Australia and was nominated for triple j’s J Award for Album of the Year. The album’s success spurred a sold-out national tour and a return to North America for festivals and another stint with Silversun Pickups.
