New Music

Fresh sounds that stretch the normalities of music are often a hard find nowadays, but for music that is easy-going and pleasing to the ear, look no further than Bell Mare. The duo, consisting of Thomas Servidone and Amelia Bushell, first began making music together after meeting in a bar in Brooklyn, and whilst started recording in a…

After returning from a highly-successful Australian-New Zealand tour that saw three of her stops being completely sold out, Lucy Rose has once again graced our presence with her new song and video “All That Fear”, recorded during her studio sessions Something’s Changing. The video, shot entirely in black and white by her husband/tour manager William Morris…

Alternative Portuguese band ARY have explored their dark-side in their latest video “If You Never Try You Never Know” off their upcoming debut album Drowning Inside, in a three and a half minute long video filled with intensity and disparity. Confident that they have found their musical identity in the past year, ARY delves into the dark side…

Byron Bay’s resident metal legends Parkway Drive recently released the visuals for their latest single “Wishing Wells” and as you’d expect, the final result is frenzied and goes from 0-100 quite quickly. Just like the song itself, the music video itself simmers in darkness initially, before erupting in intensity. It shies away from the usual out…

Vibrant and almost confronting with its colour scheme, the music video for “Free My Mind” from Melbourne’s Neon Queen is as luscious as the song itself. Putting their city on show, the R&B soaked groover of a song takes the viewer to Melbourne and puts the spotlight on an enviable city skyline, inner haunts that look like…

Adelaide trio DONNARUMMA have really made an impact since they first emerged onto the scene last year. Packing their new music with a tonne of heartfelt melody as well as a refined handle on songwriting that has proved this band is in it for the long haul, DONNARUMMA have come through strong with this, their new…

Opening our week of new sounds is the latest from Sydney’s Tesse, in “Keep It Simple”. A bright follow up from their debut – “I’ll Tell You in the Morning” – the latest from singer songwriter Tom Stephens is an instant earworm. Keeping the vibe laid back, the quality of Stephens’ writing and arrangement shines on this…

Sydney’s Letters to Lions kick off some brand new tour dates this weekend, bringing their new single “Skeletons” to venues down the east coast; a fine return from the group who spent much of 2017 ensuring their live presence was felt by industry and new fans welcomed to the fold alike. The single itself sees Letters…

For some smooth sounds to complement an almost-end-of-the-week vibe that is today, we present George FitzGerald‘s new one, and a collaboration with Bonobo at that. “Outgrown” is as you’d expect: it’s lush, delicate and explores FitzGerald’s already fleshed out electronic soundscape that we’ve really been enjoying over the past year. All of this is, of course, a…

Melbourne’s RVG are gearing up for a huge 2018, with international tour dates right on the horizon; the band is preparing to bring their acclaimed debut album A Quality of Mercy to American and European audiences for the first time. Ahead of RVG’s third, yes third, sold out gig at The Old Bar on home turf, the…

If you managed to catch Sevdaliza at Sugar Mountain or at any of her shows on the Aussie east coast back in January, you’ll recall the hypnotic nature of her music and performance style. The Iranian-Dutch artist has continued to push through in bringing her captivating style to music fans with the release of a…

Brissy artists generally have a penchant for releasing music that just makes ya feel good. Even when it comes to the hardcore/punk rock scene, there’s a certain emotional punch that comes with the music that has had me leaving many a show feeling exhausted, but emotionally satisfied. Which is why I’m here to introduce you…

Many an Australian music fan have already fallen under spell of  Tom Lyngcoln‘s musicianship; The Nation Blue and Harmony legend has been regarded as one of the country’s best guitarists, but in his debut solo record Doming Home, Lyngcoln further stretches his wings and flourishes under the spotlight. New single “Teardrops” is a perfect example….

We love Jordan Rakei. His latest album Wallflower remains one of our favourites of last year; brooding, enticing and boasting some of his best-produced songs yet. Album opener “Eye to Eye” is one of the strongest on the record and unsurprisingly, has become a strong favourite at live shows of Rakei’s also. To continue to…

  Augie March are approaching the long awaited release of their sixth studio record, in Bootikins. A beautiful album of music once more spearheaded by Glenn Richards‘  recognisable songwriting style and romantic flair, Bootikins heralds Augie March’s return to form. It’s made us realise how long it’s actually been since we’ve heard from the group…

Today, Leicester duo Dark Dark Horse have won us over with their latest single, “And Then We Had Nothing At All”. The group released a new music video for the track and like the tune itself, the final result is a beautiful one. Taking things out to the Greek islands, the film clip takes place in…

Aurelia is continuing to climb with this fab new single, “Chest”. It’s only her sophomore release but make no mistake, the depth of quality with this new song from the Brisbane songwriter is marking her out as one to watch in 2018. Recording this one out in LA, the making of “Chest” saw Aurelia work…

Taken from his anticipated fifth record, Grayson‘s new single “Margarita” is an ode to escaping the humdrum of the 9-5 and simply enjoying the easier elements of any summer off. In making this tune’s official clip, the Nashville-based Aussie songwriter headed to Newcastle; hitting the beach with Blacklist Productions, Grayson brings “Margarita” to the Dudley and Redhead…

Moose Blood‘s “Have I Told You Enough” comes at the perfect time in our week. We’re ready to knock off and get a song with a massive hook and chorus into our lungs. This tune, in its power-through nature and melody, does the trick. Written about his relationship with his young daughter, vocalist Eddy Brewerton poured…

Back in August last year, we introduced you to producer and musician Hansaa (aka Vinay Matta) with his song “Need To Know” – a great cut from an emerging name on the rise. Now, we’re seeing that Hansaa is continuing this good run with his latest release, a collaboration with soso, in “Nights”. Bringing in vocalist Emma Sameth for…

Sweden’s Tove Styrke is an artist we first came across back at SXSW in 2015. First memory of her is her ballsy rendition of should-be club anthem, “Even if I’m Loud it Doesn’t Mean I’m Talking to You”. Second memory of Styrke is the presence she brought to the tiny stage – a striking performer…

New York’s Miles Francis brings us some great new visuals for his tune “Deserve Your Love” – a great entry point of a song for newcomers like us, to his music. Taken from Francis’ debut EP Swimmers, “Deserve Your Love” is a cut of left field pop that highlights Francis’ excellent vocals and approach to the genre. The…

Sydney’s modern rock heroes Middle Kids have released the first cut from their upcoming album with “Mistake”. Like previous successes “Never Start” and “Edge of Town”, the new track showcases the powerful vocals of front woman Hannah Joy with a crazy catchy chorus. It’s a tantalising tease of their upcoming album Lost Friends out May fourth. The…

Aussie rave kings The Presets have followed their massive comeback single “Do What You Want” with new track “14U + 14ME”, a pumping dance tune with The Presets’ signature craziness. The track opens with a slow build of manipulated vocals and rising synths, but doesn’t take long to get to the good stuff: it’s The…

Melbourne’s Baby Blue have been gathering a considerable amount of acclaim over the last 12 months, cutting their teeth on the local circuit alongside the likes of Chastity Belt, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever and Jordie Lane, while presenting music that has been charming garage-rock fans and newcomers to the sound alike. As good music should, the…

Melbourne rock trio Fight the Sun are soon to be on the road with their debut EP, bringing together a love of furious riffs and deftly executed rock distortion – clearly evidenced on their hectic single, “Animals”. It’s a bit Foo Fighters, a bit Biffy Clyro – the type of rock music that is synonymous with…

Atlanta has long been associated with producing some of R&B and hip hop’s finest and when it comes to emerging artists in both genres? The A has got their finger on the pulse. So today, meet Berhana. Since 2016, the songwriter has been garnering support from tastemakers through to the R&B and hip hop heads who…

For New Zealand’s Tablefox, the start of 2018 is a continuation of the solid momentum last year brought the rockers. With their record You And I Will Find A Way, Tablefox deservedly turned heads – their brand of rock music is versatile enough for the indie and more commercial scenes, though that’s really not what brought us…

Scottish hitmakers CHVRCHES have returned with new track “Get Out”. It’s been three years after the crazy successful album Every Open Eye, which yielded some of the best most loved tracks including “Bury It”, “Never Ending Circles” and “Leave a Trace”. Along with the release of the new single, the band released a cryptic video with…

Melbourne rockers Camp Cope had a massive 2017. From sticking it to festivals, to releasing some of their best work to date, the trio proved that they’re a force to be reckoned with.
