INTRODUCING: Adria
Like the pure streams of aqua that pour from the heavens, Australian chanteuse Adria is hugely influenced by the glistening, turbulent power of water. After all, her namesake is in ode to the Adriatic Sea. Her music echoes this fluidity, with striking composure Adria has crafted a catalogue of beautifully poised, alt-pop songs.
In Conversation with…THE DOCTORATES
The Doctorates make music that lives and breathes with summer vibes. Their garage surf rock and indie pop spirit brings together both a sweetness and a roughness, making for an undeniable combination that will not rest till your up on your feet and dancing your troubles away. It’s like if Circa Waves and Palma Violets […]
EP REVIEW: Poor Michael – ‘EP3’
I often wonder why a collective of 2 or 3 musicians can produce a much grislier and often more powerful sound than a simple four piece can provide, but I guess the simple truth is, that with refinement comes a boundless sense of freedom and often this results in, amps being turned up higher and […]
SONG OF THE WEEK: Storms – ‘Girl’
Since we first heard Storms melodic slacker rock all those many moons ago, we’ve fallen infectiously and venomously in love with them. With the impact of their new track ‘Girl’, we can’t help but feel even more enamoured by their ability to craft emotionally brutal, hook laden songs.

For the last four years Melbourne based indie pop outfit Tully On Tully, have been turning heads and accruing fans all across the world.

Sloes immediately stunned us and many others with their debut release ‘Devil in You’ earlier in the year. The band have since premiered a new track entitled ‘Swan Song’. A sumptuous, breathtaking release of indie and folk, structurally complex and dramatically delivered.
INTRODUCING: Peacock Affect
There’s nothing I like more than being pleasantly surprised by a musician’s musical talent and songwriting skill. It’s that strike of lightning, that pure shot of emotion whether it be hope, pain, joy or melancholia. Every little minute detail sounds as gloriously rewarding as the next, because even from the most troubling times, eventually comes solace […]
SONG OF THE WEEK: Miamigo – ‘Hard To Love’
Miamigo made an impressive entrance with their debut single ‘Opinions’ but not many bands after achieving instant success, manage to keep the momentum going into their sophomore release and even top their efforts in doing so. But just one listen to Miamigo’s second track ‘Hard to Love’ and it’s near impossible to conjure anything less […]
In Conversation with…TENTERHOOK
What makes Tenterhook a particularly pleasing musical find is not just his flawless falsetto, enchanting delivery and gentle building melodies but his simple love of sharing real stories that come from the heart. His new single ‘What I Like’ is the perfect example of this, tender with immaculate poise and awash in gorgeous melody, it makes […]
Many things about…Many Things
First thing to remember, Many Things will not rest until they have you on your feet and dancing the night away. Whilst you are two-stepping through step-one, making sure to not loose your balance, the bands powerful, if not instinctive, lyrical prowess kicks in.

Since their inception in 2014, October Drift have quickly established themselves as a dominant musical force. After the soaring success of their début release ‘Whoever’, the four-piece have returned to further cement themselves as permanent fixtures in our lives with the breathtaking new single ‘You Are, You Are’.
TRACK OF THE DAY: Work Drugs – ‘Minor Flaws’
Nostalgia is a beautiful thing, looking back fondly to a time when we younger and carefree. We cherish the past, not necessarily because we’re dissatisfied with our present and fearful of what the future might bring, but because it’s made us who we are today. But when we start to over-analyse the past and begin […]
TRACK OF THE DAY: Oh So Quiet – ‘Rain At Night’
My introduction to Argentina was during England’s crushing defeat following that Michael Owen wonder goal in the ’98 World Cup- devastating as a nine year old boy. I’ve since recovered and moved on and have just been introduced to Resistencia born quintet, Oh So Quiet.
INTRODUCING: Saltwater Sun
Saltwater Sun usher in girl-fronted rock with pop sensibilities, akin to the sweet ferocity of Wolf Alice and The Preatures.
