In celebration of her seventh solo album ‘I Just Need To CONQUER
THIS MOUNTAIN’ which debuted at #6 on the ARIA Australian Album
Chart, SARAH BLASKO BRINGS HER TOUR TO THE ODEON STAGE IN APRIL 2025.
An album of late night reflections on goodbyes, grief, new beginnings,
and a cherished childhood friendship, BLASKO’s highly acclaimed live
show takes her sound to a simultaneously more expansive and intimate
place.“This album was probably the most relaxed and free feeling
record I’ve made”, Blasko muses, acknowledging a feeling of
positivity and hope, while thematically traversing both the heartbreak
and quiet calm that comes with letting go of your younger self.
Tracing the inevitability of painful goodbyes in all their forms and
the final acceptance that follows a period of grief, it sees Sarah
Blasko firmly in the present as she searches for the light that comes
with new beginnings.
Sarah Blasko is a 3 x ARIA Award winner, 18 x ARIA Award nominee, has
won the J Award for Australian Album of the Year, and three times
shortlisted for the Australian Music Prize. Her cover of Cold
Chisel’s ‘Flame Trees’ (2004) had a resurgence when it was
featured in Season 2 of Netflix’s Heartbreak High, spawning a remix
by Cub Sport released this June. Blasko composed the music for Bell
Shakespeare’s productions of Twelfth Night (2023) and Hamlet (2008),
Sydney Dance Company’s Emergence (2013), and has been praised by the
likes of Sir Elton John on his visit to James Corden’s Carpool
Karaoke.
With special guest Glenn Richards.

_"Whenever I listen to Sarah Blasko’s albums I feel like I’m
navigating a vast ocean, with hidden depths below and uncertain
weather above, but on Eternal Return her songs bubble up like a clear,
pure, mountain spring. It’s an invigorating tonic for the soul."_
