A musical auteur, Ecca Vandal defies categorization, seamlessly weaving together punk, hip-hop, jazz, soul, trip-hop, and electronic influences into a sound that’s bold, dynamic, and entirely her own. Spending her formative years as a jazz musician, her passion for improvisation led her to fall in love with the DIY abandon of punk and foster an ability to effortlessly balance soulful melodies with raw, unapologetic power.
South African-born with Tamil heritage and an upbringing in Naarm/Melbourne, Australia, Ecca Vandal strutted her way onto the musical landscape in 2016 in traditional punk-style with an edgy disposition and something to say. Ecca brings unrelenting energy to the stage with a history of touring alongside global heavyweights such as Queens of the Stone Age, Incubus, Idles and The Prodigy, as well as appearances at a host of iconic festivals including Download, Reading and Leeds Festivals in the UK, AfroPunk in France and Splendour in the Grass, Falls and Laneway Festivals in Australia.
Neither her sound nor persona are fixed for easy consumption. Political, rebellious and tenacious, with a voice demanding to be heard — Ecca Vandal is magnetism personified and exactly what we need right now.
