JEM Pryse has continued his busy 2022, playing his first album SEEK<\/em> on stage for the first time earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Pryse released the album in May, the same month he was named Triple J Unearthed artist of the week and performed at Groovin\u2019 the Moo.<\/p>\n

This month he\u2019s toured Victoria and launching his album in Melbourne. On Saturday, he played Old Church on the Hill for the first time.<\/p>\n

Pryse said he was happy with how the album sounded on stage, given he wrote most of the songs during COVID-19 lockdowns.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt ended up working really well doing an hour solo set and an hour with the band,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat helped me get the message across with the songs I released. Some of them are slower, more acoustic which worked well for a solo set, and some are more fun and energetic, a bit more dance type which was really fun for the band.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Bendigo-born musician said his songs touch on themes of family, friendships, life in lockdown and his experiences so far in the music industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of my songs and music is inspired by family and close friends, and I grew up in the church too so a few of the songs are inspired by God which brings a different aspect to some of my music,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

After a whirlwind six months, and two more shows scheduled in July, Pryse said he will focus on quality over quantity moving forward.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn today\u2019s age there\u2019s so much content and music coming out, I really want to be intention in every song I make and really capture meaning and emotion in each release and project I do,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom there my focus is going to be that live performance, playing shows and gigs and really just connecting with the audience.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
