PRESENTED BY LEAH

Two years after the release of her debut album Lone Wolf, Brisbane-based Deena returns with a new single ‘Cupid’.Stepping away from her acoustic-folk sound and with the help of a fully-fledged band behind her, Deena has dived head first into a new musical direction of indie blues-rock.Her sound is bigger, grittier and darker than ever.

With her forthcoming sophomore album Black Cat due for release early 2015, Deena has collaborated with Yanto Browning (Art of Sleeping, Jac Stone), Brendan O’Neill (Big Scary, Saskwatch) and Graham Ritchie (Holy Holy, Emma Louise), who have all lent their unique talents to chisel a darker tone without compromising Deena’s dulcet voice – a voice that transmits raw, intense emotion.

‘Cupid’ is the first single off Black Cat, in which Deena sings about knowing full well the danger of falling for a certain person but giving in to temptation anyway. Her voice beguiles listeners into an almost lullaby until demanding focus when the song breaks into a wail of high notes and grungy guitar. ‘Cupid’ is a song with cheek and soul.


Self-styled and self-taught, independence is what sets Deena apart from the rest. Born in Japan to a Taiwanese mother and an Irish father, her musical influences are as eclectic as her cultural upbringing – Johnny Cash, KT Tunstall and Jeff Buckley.

Having started her musical journey only two years ago, Deena is already a seasoned performer. For ‘Lone Wolf’, she completed a tour of national shows and festivals as well as internationally in the USA, Malaysia, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Indonesia. Now in 2014 and in early 2015, Deena has plans to bring the album to Japan, Malaysia and right at home in Australia to a town near you.
