Scarlett Stevens: San Cisco singer and drummer expecting child with Pond member James Ireland

Scarlett Stevens has announced she is expecting her first child with Perth rock star James Ireland.

The San Cisco drummer and singer took to Instagram on Thursday to announce her pregnancy to her 38,000 followers.

The 32-year-old shared a photo of herself cradling her ever-increasing baby bump along with the caption, “Waiting for our little cannoli”.

The indie music star posed for the camera wearing a black and white striped cardigan and lacy white hot pants.

It will be her first child she shares with her rock star partner Ireland who is a member of the band Pond.

Friends and fans took to the comments section sharing their excitement for the couple’s special Christmas news.

Co-owner of clothing brand Oli, Phoebie McDonald said: “Congrats you guys.”

Another fan said: “Oh wow, congratulations sweetheart!”

“Congratulations queen,” a third said.

Stevens has been part of the Fremantle-born band since its inception alongside Jordi Davieson and Josh Biondillo.

In a 2013 interview with Modern Drummer magazine Stevens recalled her initial introduction to the drums happened when she met Jack Johnson’s drummer, Adam Topol, who showed her how to play a basic rock beat.

She is the daughter of Phil Stevens, co-founder of Jarrah Records and manager of John Butler Trio and The Waifs.

San Cisco most recently performed at the free WA Day Festival at Burswood Park last month.

The trio will take to the stage again for an all ages gig at Hyperfest in Midland on March 29.
