The Preatures are an indie rock band hailing from Sydney, Australia, known for their captivating blend of rock, pop, and new wave influences, which they began showcasing in the early 2010s. The band was formed by lead vocalist Isabella 'Izzi' Manfredi, guitarist Jack Moffitt, bass player Thomas Champion, and drummer Luke Davison. Their sound is characterized by the compelling dynamics of Manfredi's vocal delivery, supported by the band's tight, rhythmic instrumentation and penchant for melodic hooks.

The Preatures gained significant attention with the release of their single "Is This How You Feel?" in 2013, which won them the Vanda & Young Songwriting Competition and catapulted them to national fame. Their debut album, "Blue Planet Eyes," dropped in 2014 to critical acclaim, cementing their reputation as a fresh and exciting voice on the international music scene. Songs like "Somebody's Talking" and "Two Tone Melody" showcase the band's range and ability to write infectious tunes. In 2017, they released their sophomore album, "Girlhood," which further explored themes of identity and femininity and included tracks such as "Yanada" and the eponymous "Girlhood," offering a more introspective but equally engaging edge to their music. Despite taking a hiatus, The Preatures' music continues to resonate with fans, thanks to its sincere energy and innovative spirit.
