Edward Service and Jack Madin are Melbourne music duo SHOUSE.
As part of APRA’s Billions club, as both songwriters and artists, their song “Love Tonight” (an anthem of hope and unity) exploded into a global phenomenon during the worldwide pandemic, culminating in a breakout “Summer Hit” status across Europe & the Northern Hemisphere. The track then topped Billboard and Radio airplay charts across the world and became one of Australia's most significant cultural exports of recent years.
With collaboration being at the heart of the SHOUSE philosophy, their top streaming songs, “Love Tonight” and “Won’t Forget You”, were recorded with a choir over 20 friends and artists in their local music community. SHOUSE has additionally collaborated with superstars like Jason Derulo and David Guetta.
On the live side, SHOUSE are just as adventurous, working on a mass musicking event for RISING, where they will unite hundreds of music lovers in Melbourne St. Paul's cathedral for an epic collaborative choir performance, ahead of embarking on European touring for Summer 2024.
Open Season is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland’s QASP and Strategic Partnership’s fund.
