Vera Blue sits down with Paul Cashmere for an in-depth Noise11 interview, revealing the creative journey behind her long-awaited return to new music. After three years away, Vera Blue has released In The Corner and Parallel Desire, offering the first glimpse into a bold new album era arriving in 2026.
In this conversation, Vera discusses her musical evolution, shifting from Eighties-inspired synth-pop into a more ethereal Nineties dance and alternative sound. She talks openly about experimenting with her voice, embracing freedom in melody, and drawing inspiration from artists like Madonna, Kylie Minogue, and Enya.
Vera also reflects on the emotional depth of her upcoming album, describing themes of strength, transformation, mental health, love, and anger. Collaboration plays a key role, with Vera stepping outside long-standing creative partnerships to work with new producers and writers both in Australia and overseas.
A standout moment in the interview is her reflection on performing at the 2025 AFL Grand Final, a career-defining experience that introduced her voice to a national audience. Vera shares how singing a cappella strengthened her confidence and reaffirmed her belief in the power of vocal emotion.
Looking ahead to 2026, Vera Blue discusses her vision for live shows, cinematic visuals, and her highly anticipated return to Twilight At Taronga. She confirms the new album is finished and currently being mixed, with another single due early next year.
This is Vera Blue at a turning point, confident, curious, and ready for the next chapter.
