Montaigne

Following the release of EP The Life Of Montaigne and then debut album Glorious Heights, Montaigne’s evolution as an artist was a journey fans and industry became part of, as they were able to witness their growth as a musician and performer on stages nationally. The release of Glorious Heights featuring the ARIA Platinum certified single ‘Because I Love You’ propelled Montaigne onto more radars around the country and earned accolades including a #4 ARIA Chart position and the ‘Best Breakthrough Artist’ award at the 2016 ARIA Awards. 2019 saw the arrival of their sophomore album, a collection of observations and stories beautifully delivered against a backdrop of sprawling and theatrical sounds, fittingly titled Complex. The album was representative of the artist who had been powering ahead in carving out their own lane in Australian music – bold and undeterred. 2020 brought another pivotal moment for Montaigne, as they was selected to represent Australia at Eurovision in Rotterdam 2020, having won the Eurovision: Australia Decides competition with their stunning original song, ‘Don’t Break Me’. Returning in 2021 to represent Australia on the world stage in a live broadcast to Rotterdam with their single ‘Technicolour’.
