RAGEFLOWER Signs With Weird Fishes

SYDNEY, Australia — RAGEFLOWER is ready to bloom, through a new management deal with Weird Fishes.

Spearheaded by songwriter and musician Madeleine Powers, RAGEFLOWER made ripples in the domestic music industry last year with its debut EP INFINITE HIGHS, END OF TIMES and impressive performances at BIGSOUND 2025, plus the release of the singles “Desk Job” and “Control,” both of which have enjoyed high-rotation on triple j.

Key Spotify playlists have added RAGEFLOWER, from New Music Friday AU/NZ, to Pop n Fresh, Hits Different, Glow, Fresh Finds AU and Tapestry, in addition to several Apple Music playlists. Also, support slots have opened up with The Temper Trap and The Darkness.

Classically trained at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Powers changed tac and found creative freedom in distortion pedals, vulnerable lyrics, and shimmering synths. It’s channeled into an indie rock/pop act that is “without doubt the most exciting new artist we have seen in the last few years,” comments Weird Fishes co-founder Aidan McLaren.

“The creativity, the songwriting, the captivating live show, the connection, it’s all there,” McLaren continues. “What Maddy is creating is something really unique, very special and strikingly authentic. We couldn’t be more pleased than to be joining the team to help bring the RAGEFLOWER world to life, and to bring it to people around the globe.”

“There’s a magnetic intensity to RAGEFLOWER that you just don’t see every day,” adds Weird Fishes’ Alanna Vullo. “She isn’t afraid to push boundaries or bare her soul, and the result is art that genuinely moves people and leaves a lasting mark. We are absolutely thrilled to step in as her management team and back such a fiercely creative talent”. Vullo, who joined the company late last year, assists McLaren on day-to-day management.

It’s all falling into place for RAGEFLOWER, which recently signed to Select Music (Rob Giovannoni) for Australian live bookings, and caught the eyes and ears of Paul Wilson and Nikos Kazoleas at CAA, who represent for U.K./European live bookings; Paul Wilson books Sam Fender, Lianne La Havas, Tracey Chapman, Dermot Kennedy, while Kazoleas served with as a music agent at UTA for more than a decades, and has worked with the likes of Sombr, GAYLE, Rebecca Black, Trixie Mattel, BANKS, Joshua Bassett, and others.

At Weird Fishes, which opened for business just nine months ago, RAGEFLOWER joins a roster that includes Boy & Bear, Tim Hart, The Dreggs, Steph Strings and Pete Murray. The team, led by McLaren, Joe Miles and Rhett McLaren, was nominated for manager of the year at the 2026 AAM Awards, presented last week in Sydney.
