Jaguar Jonze at BIGSOUND Festival
A self-proclaimed "eastern cowgirl howling at the rising sun", Jaguar Jonze was a stand-out at this year's BIGSOUND festival in the heart of Meanjin (Brisbane). Singer-songwriter Deena Lynch incorporates warm guitar twangs reminiscent of a Western with decadent vocals and indie-rock vibes. Her debut single, You Got Left Behind, floats an eerie yet addictive chorus that sets the tone of Jonze's creative uniqueness and powerful presence.
Her latest single, Beijing Baby, was released only recently alongside a delicious music video of blue, red, and static TVs. The track drips with emotive groove. Playing live, she is equally as enrapturing. From leading with guitar, flute, or standing on the edge of the stage to grasp a fan's hand, Jaguar Jonze is refined in performance, talent, and sound.
BIGSOUND was not her first festival gig, either. Having played in both Singapore and Jarkarta in her earlier career, we look forward to watching Jaguar Jonze take on an international career with her eccletic and inspiring creativity.
