A rising star of Australia’s rap scene is set to play for Melbourne audiences later this year.
One of Brisbane’s brightest new rap stars, Mallrat, has announced she will be performing live at the Melbourne Forum this May, enabling fans from Epping and other suburbs to hear her latest tracks. Major music venues across the country often gain assistance from expert poster printing services to create colourful advertisements that attract the attention of local gig goers.
Born Grace Kathleen Elizabeth Shaw in September 1998), Mallrat is a singer and musician who has released three EPs (Uninvited, In the Sky and Driving Music) and one studio album to date. Recorded in May 2022, Mallrat’s debut album is entitled Butterfly Blue and has received critical acclaim.
She has also enjoyed plenty of success with Australian radio station Triple J, which has honoured her tracks with regular rotation. Hits like “Groceries”, “UFO”, “Charlie”, “Rockstar” and “Nobody's Home” all placed in Triple J’s Hottest 100.
The rapper began writing music when she was just a high school student in Brisbane and has listed her influences as being a blend of artists and bands including Grimes, Sophie, Skrillex, Courtney Barnett, and Aussie rap star Allday.
Mallrat will now take to the stage at the Forum Melbourne, situated at 154 Flinders Street in Melbourne, on Saturday, May 20.
