Sullivan is an award-winning songwriter, drummer and vocalist with a music career spanning over a decade across three continents. They are a founding member of much-lauded Australian indie band I Heart Hiroshima that received much deserved attention from BBC, NME, Vice and all those big shots around the world. A world that they extensively toured like a mad cat until, restless, they decided to leave Australia to set up in Berlin (via New York City). That’s where, equipped with only a laptop, soon followed by drum pads and other toys, Sullivan pushed their musical abilities in a new, electronic direction. Together with producer Darren Jensen, combined the stripped-down indie aesthetic of their previous work with danceable electro beats on songs of a decidedly personal yet pop nature.
