Sydney indie-pop band Jet City Sports Club have highlighted Redfern through their unreleased track Redfern Station, performed during their debut session at “Live at Enmore”.
Redfern Station as Inspiration
Jet City Sports Club performed their unreleased track Redfern Station at “Live at Enmore”, drawing on the suburb as the central theme. The song reflects a moment in July 2020, when members observed the sunset over Redfern Station and later developed it into music, shaping one of their most personal works.
Band Background and Direction
Formed in Sydney/Eora, the group has developed a sound blending 1990s-style instrumentation with modern indie elements. Led by Lilla Obradovic, the band’s music balances atmospheric melodies with driving guitar riffs. Their influences span from Snail Mail and Soccer Mommy to The Beths, Julia Jacklin, Phoebe Bridgers, and DMA’s, reflecting both international and Australian inspirations in their sound.
From Formation to Recognition
The four members came together through mutual connections, with Obradovic taking on vocals during their first practice. Since then, they have established themselves on the national live circuit, performing at festivals including Rolling Sets, Lost Paradise, The Gum Ball, and Party in the Paddock. They have also supported acts such as Ruby Fields, Old Mervs, The Temper Trap, Dear Seattle, and DICE, building their reputation as a strong live act.
Growing Presence in Australian Music
The band has been signed to Select Music and recently announced their first headline tour. Their single In Morphine continues their presence in the indie scene, following earlier tracks such as Feeling It All, which marked a shift towards an indie-pop direction and showed their willingness to evolve creatively.
Anticipation Around Redfern Track
With Redfern Station yet to be officially released, interest has grown among fans. The combination of lyrical storytelling and live performance has positioned the track as one likely to resonate with Sydney audiences when made available, particularly those with connections to Redfern and its cultural setting.
