Adele & The Chandeliers

Adele Pickvance grew up musically in the contrasting surrounds of the industrial north of England in a town called Bury and sunny Brisbane, Australia. She is known for performing and recording bass guitar with Australia's most accliamed songwriters Robert Forster, Grant McLennan, The Go-Betweens, The Far Out Corporation and Dave Graney & Clare Moore in The Dave Graney Show.

Adele was frequently described by Grant McLennan as "The Duchess of the deep end" and continued to play with The Go Betweens until the sudden death of Grant. Adele then recorded and toured the post Go Betweens album The Evangelist by Robert Forster.

Adele then moved to Sydney and recorded an album in 2012 with long time band mate/ co-rhythm section member of The Go Betweens, Glenn Thompson, under the name Adele & Glenn. The album Carrington Street was released via German label Glitterhouse Records to great critical acclaim.

Now back in Brisbane, Adele & The Chandeliers were formed with Scott Mercer (We All Want To) on guitar and Ash Shanahan, drums. Ash recorded on the album then left due to other commitments, replaced by brother Jonny Pickvance.
Adele& The Chandeliers debut album called First Date. A classic 3 piece band with drums, bass and guitar drawing on the classic pop, post punk songwriting and unique slightly quirky lyrics.
