Folk Bitch Trio is the Australian band comprised of Gracie Sinclair, Jeanie Pilkington, and Heide Peverelle, have signed with the legendary indy label Jagjaguwar. Today, they have release the new single/video, “The Actor.” Folk Bitch Trio will play select shows in the US this summer in New York on Tuesday, July 22nd at Nightclub 101 and in Los Angeles on Thursday, July 24th at Permanent Records.

“The Actor” is a song about “falling hard and fast and breaking down quick too,” through lyrics that “flow down from affectionate details you notice about someone when falling in love, fighting and fucking, and ultimately the demise of a relationship at your partner’s solo theatre play.” The song’s accompanying video was co-directed by Bridgette Winten and the band.

Folk Bitch Trio formed five years ago, and its members have been inseparable since. “We have three individual voices,” they say, “but the story we tell is unified because our hearts are very melded.” Their music comes from the deep connection and collaboration that evolves between the three of them, encapsulating the growing pains they felt as people and a band in their early adult lives, touching on, as Heide says, “loss, fear, sex, rage, elation but most importantly love and laughs.”

2024 which saw the release of their single “God’s a Different Sword” and worldwide shows from SXSW to shows with Alex G, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Julia Jacklin and Courtney Barnett, the band are currently readying their debut album.
