Rowena Wise brings her sophomore album Bad Things Feel Good* to Mojos in Fremantle this November — just her, a guitar, and a tender, point-blank look at the pain of transformation and what it means to be flesh and blood.

Written over two years of near-constant touring and recorded live over three days at The Ratshack in Collingwood with producer Rob Muinos (Julia Jacklin, Didirri), the album traces heartbreak, estrangement, and the knottier growing pains of adulthood through candid poetic lyricism. Stripped back solo, these songs lay bare the quiet devastation at the heart of the record — the knowing and the unknowing, the harm and the pleasure, the tenderness and the damage that can exist in the same breath. In a room like Mojos, that kind of honesty hits differently.

If her name sounds familiar, you might have seen it on the Australian Music Prize shortlist, or caught her selling out rooms in London and Melbourne, or opening for Holy Holy and Ball Park Music. Maybe you spotted her at SXSW, The Great Escape, or Reeperbahn. With over 10 million streams and new listeners arriving every week, this is Rowena at her most raw and intimate.
