A sad tune from Jess Cornelius, formerly of Teeth and Tongue. I think she lives in LA now.

That's some hard listenin'

Mashd N Kutcher’s ‘Get On The Beers’ featuring Daniel Andrews has just cracked the Hottest 100 of 2020.

And the Victorian Premier himself approves.

The Hill Top Hoods getting a bit fancy and formal here

Jess Cornelius is hunkered down in LA and learning how to make her own videos for the new album.

remake of some wayne...

Ziggy Alberts has a challenging task. How do you make it as, essentially, a folk-rocker in this day and age? Can he write lyrics that aren't trite, a rehash of every folk song ever written, or just silly? Or does it really matter, because each generation should be discovering love, loneliness, and social justice? It appears he doesn't want to keep the same old singing from the 60s and 70s, but doesn't want his words to get lost in the more recent marble-mouth styling of Bon Iver and the like.

I wasn't aware of his music until I caught the first radio play of Bright Lights, a track from his new album, when I was on a road trip. I went back and listened to some of his earlier stuff and the new album. I hear too much similarity, especially the knocking thing, but that is a first impression as I get my ear in tune to his music (so to speak). And really, it's effin' folk - it should evolve slowly. And it is evolving - the new stuff seems to have refined his style.

I guess success is when you want to listen to it more. Maybe it won't have staying power in my psyche but I can say that about a lot of music, and I think it will. It doesn't hurt that he's a good guitar player.

OMG. Just saw the documentary Gurrumul, about an indigenous Australian musician, who I knew little about. Saw it at the Star Cinema, my local sit on a sofa in a Victorian music hall, drinking wine and watching flicks place. The director is a local boy and did a Q&A afterwards. It was really interesting and the scenes of his community were beautiful. I really need to get some all of his music.

Australian loop pedal maestro Tash Sultana patiently assembles psychedelic symphonies in this exclusive Rolling Stone video. The emerging Melbourne singer-songwriter performs two shapeshifting singles from her 2016 EP, Notion – both of which showcase her dynamic guitar and vocal skills.
