In 2019, the Veronicas sisters Lisa and Jess Origliasso seemed to make headlines for everything but their music.
Most notably they were caught up in a stoush with airline Qantas after being forced to disembark a domestic flight before takeoff from Sydney to Brisbane.
Lisa Origliasso was married to actor partner Logan Huffman in November 2018 while Jess got engaged to muso Kai Carlton in October.
Their personal lives were laid to bare on MTV reality show Blood Is For Life.
Fans have been desperately waiting for a new album for some time with their last album release in 2014. They have however released several singles in that time, including In My Blood, and are understood to be working on a fragrance.
Their career has taken somewhat of a dramatic reinvention over the past six months with the festival community embracing the pair. they graced the stage at the Good Things Festival and have just been announced for the national Groovin the Moo festival in May.
Their festival renaissance came with a surprise performance with Mallrat at Field Day on New Year’s Day 2019 and they subsequently joined All Day on stage at Splendour in the Grass.
In November, Jess told Confidential the pair would continue to speak openly about issues important to them.
“At the end of the day, for us it’s about truth, integrity, honour, love – truth it’s a funny thing when you live in the world that we live in it has to be used responsibly,” Jess told Confidential in November.
“You have to be brave and for us we have a lot of young fans we’ve had fans grow up with us, we are incredibly privileged to have the platform that we have. We were raised by a very strong woman – our mummy who said ‘If you’re speaking in truth and integrity then nothing else matters but you must do that’.”
