February 7: Alps, Bare Grillz and Mere Women (all live in the studio)
This was a wild show. I welcomed Alps back to the studio for the second time, this time performing with a backing band - all three members of Bare Grillz, who also performed a set. And to round it out, we had new Sydney act Mere Women perform as well. It was a mini gig in the studio! With snappy interviews and three live sets, this podcast is for the live music nuts. All three sets sound incredible for our humble studio, and the performances are great - one of my favourite shows so far.
January 31: Unity Floors (Live + Interview)
I first heard Unity Floors a couple of months ago and was really impressed - for a brand new band, their 2-piece indie was just straight-up great music. So i got them on the show. With just a demo out, it’s a great chance to find a new favourite Sydney band - their live set was a lot of fun and it was great to hear about how they got started.
January 24: The Hummingbirds (Live + Interview)
Plenty of folks were pretty shocked when, 17 years after breaking up, The Hummingbirds were quietly added to the lineup of this year’s Big Day Out. A fantastic, jangly Sydney pop band with a handful of EPs and LPs released in the early 90s, they’ve gained quite a reputation as their music has been rediscovered over the last few years. So I was stoked when their two singers, Alannah Russack and Simon Holmes, agreed to come in for an acoustic set and interview on the eve of this one-off show. And it was worth the anticipation, with two tremendous songs and a great chat about getting the band back together after almost two decades.
January 17: La Dispute (Interview) and To The North (Live + Interview)
On their second tour of Australia, rising post-hardcore band La Dispute took time out of their busy schedule for a fantastic interview about overseas touring and the importance of community in the punk scene. And their tour mates, To The North, also came in for both an interview and live set. To top it all off, we had everyone in the studio together for one last interview. Killer!
January 10: David Studdert (Live + Interview)
Former Tactics frontman David Studdert came into the studio for a rare live performance and a lengthy chat as he prepares to release his solo album “Hanging By A Thread”. Great interview, great songs, great show.
The track up top is The Hummingbirds with She Knows. SO LUSH.
Five great podcasts for your perusal. Enjoy.
Last night’s Valentine’s Special with The Maladies and Michael Crafter will be up soon. And listen in this week - Charge Group are live in the studio! I haven’t seen them live for a long time… pretty excited.
