Seeker Lover Keeper is the arresting meeting-of-minds of three of the finest female songwriters working today. Sarah Blasko, Sally Seltmann and Holly Throsby are all critically acclaimed, award-winning solo artists in their own right, and Seeker Lover Keeper is not just an album but a love token, a musical keepsake to cherish.
The seed for Seeker Lover Keeper was initially a way for the three long-term friends to tour together, singing each others' songs every night. It was Sally who suggested instead that the three of them form a band, and Sally who came up with the name - "I just really love those three words together and how it suggested that one (of us) is the Seeker, one is the Lover and one is the Keeper."
The album was recorded in just two weeks in New York, and produced by the band along with Victor Van Vugt (Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, Athlete, Beth Orton). Beginning with the hushed reverence of the Blasko-sung "Bring Me Back", the 11 tracks that make up "Seeker Lover Keeper" take in romance, affection, resignation and devotion, with music that is almost cinematic in its evocative quality. An early, and critical, song in the writing process was album closer "Rest Your Head On My Shoulder", which was designed to be sung round the piano by all three artists. The song's refrain "Rest your head on my shoulder and I'll take care of your worries / It was you who promised this to me / It was you who offered me courage" perfectly encapsulates the spirit of unity and intimacy that emanates throughout the album.
It's clear that "Seeker Lover Keeper" the album is the start of something truly beautiful - a band strengthened by the bonds of friendship and the individual experiences of life as a solo artist, who will carry on making music that intrigues and challenges each other and their listeners.
