Sweet Whirl is an Australian-based indie-pop project from Ester Macfarlane that was formed in 2015. The poppy, guitar-based tunes of Sweet Whirl have become a staple in the Aussie music scene, earning a loyal fanbase, and a spattering of attention abroad. Macfarlane's dreamy lyrics paired with catchy melodies have seen Sweet Whirl play on some of the country's biggest stages and most esteemed festivals, from Falls Festival to Blue Dot, as well collaborating with the likes of Totally Mild, Sui Zhen, Marlon Williams, and more. Sweet Whirl’s debut album ‘How Much Works’ was released in 2018 to critical acclaim, and continued to further the reach of the project around the world. In 2020, Macfarlane released her follow up release - ‘When the World is Wide’, bringing yet more experimental and gentle sounds into the Sweet Whirl fold.
