Chloe Gill has fired into 2026 with a powerful new anthem, a debut album on the way, and a hometown show at the Stag & Hunter this April.
Newcastle’s own Chloe Gill has kicked off the year with Pushing Punishment, a soaring, emotionally charged single that cements her rising status as one of the region’s most compelling voices.
The track arrives as the next chapter in a run of vulnerable, fiercely honest releases, continuing the momentum built from January’s Down The Drain.
Blending the atmospheric DNA of artists like Bon Iver, Sharon Van Etten and Gang of Youths, Chloe channels that same emotional intelligence into a sound that is uniquely her own—dynamic, intimate and shaped by lived experience.
Pushing Punishment digs into self-growth and self-acceptance, capturing the inner friction of trying to break old patterns while learning to put your own oxygen mask on first.
The single arrives alongside a beautifully paced music video that mirrors the emotional arc of the track—gentle at first, then gradually swelling into something powerful and cathartic.
It’s a visual extension of the song’s core theme: learning to step out of the noise of your own mind and into a stronger, more grounded version of yourself.
This single also marks the final preview of Gill’s long-awaited debut album, I Have A Habit of Dreaming, set for release on March 12.
Building on the foundations of previous singles including Why?, Something In The Winter and Over Me, her first full-length collection promises the same richness, sincerity and powerhouse vocal work that have earned praise from radio and press across the East Coast.
Chloe Gill will perform at Stag & Hunter, Mayfield, on Friday, 17 April. Her debut album, I Have A Habit of Dreaming, is out March 12, with full tour dates and tickets available via chloegill.com.au.
