Young Petit Biscuit has already been making waves out in Australia, with the release of his debut album Presence landing solid triple j play last year, not to mention tastemakers around the country also picking up on the French artist’s output like moths to a flame. This week saw the release of his new music video for…

They’re soon to be on tour with Rise Against but ahead of their tour dates, check out the new visuals from Sydney’s Bare Bones. The music video for their latest single, “Ravensburg”, saw the group team up with Ciarin Christie to produce the vid, while Ryan McGrath took the directorial helm for this one. Colourful and piercing in its…

British musician Charlie Straw has been steadily making a name for himself in the UK and further into Europe in 2017. His debut single “St Ives” was a great way for us to be introduced to Charlie; his voice is soulful, while the music he makes swirls somewhere between Buckley and Bon Iver. Straw’s new single…

Adelaide hip hop vet and Golden Era Records artist, K-21, has recently released his new record in Any Given D-Day – an independent release that was quick to shoot to the #1 spot on the AIR charts last week. It’s been a little while in the making for the rapper, who has been consistently refining and crafting…

Meet Benjamin Lazar Davis. The New Yorker has recently announced the release of his debut solo record, Nothing Matters, and with it has dropped the first single from it in “A Love Song Seven Ways” – a dreamy, atmospheric slice of pop music that’s turned our heads today. Flushed with great melody, reminiscent of early Passion Pop…

Adelaide’s Siamese are burning through 2018 already with the release of their great new tune, “Slaughterhouse”. Coming through under the ranks of Horror My Friend/West Thebarton‘s Tom Gordon, the four piece have definitely been in good company since breaking through on to more radars in the local music scene last year. “Slaughterhouse” positions Siamese in an exciting new…

Sean Duarte and Lizzy Tillman – aka TEES – have brought us a new video this week in the form of “Pull”! Celebrating the release of their new EP Flow (out now), “Pull” is the third single to be released from it, a record that has come as the culmination of three years’ worth of writing and recording…

If you’re in touch with Melbourne’s R&B/soul scene, Thando is not going to be a new name to your radar. Commanding crowds with a voice that has a remarkable charm and rich quality to it, the singer has been doing her thing on the local scene for years now, cultivating a great following along the way….

One of our favourite songwriters who is on a great track to having a massive year this year is Jess Locke. Her 2017 album Universe was one of the best Aussie releases of last year and in Locke’s newest single “Dangerous”, we’re seeing Jess continue to strive forward. Locke’s going to be out on the road soon…

Brisbane four piece Cub Sport had a massive 2017. Their sophomore album Bats was released to critical acclaim, and massive tracks “O Lord” and “Chasin” received national airplay. The indie-pop giants are starting of 2018 with a band, dropping the video for “Good Guys Go”. The rest of the band is noticeably absent here as…

Legendary Aussie rock trio Cog are back with their first material in 10 years with new single “The Middle”. A Cog reunion seemed unlikely after the band split following two critically acclaimed albums, yet the boys are back, planning a run of shows this year. The new single is classic Cog, a slow build acoustic…

Pop darling Eves Karydas is back with her second offering since ditching her alias Eves the Behaviour and dazzling us on single “There For You”. The globetrotting Brisbane born songstress took a three year break from releasing music after massive hits with “Electrical” and “TV”, and at only 23 her vocal stylings on the new…

Ruby Boots has dropped the visuals for her new single, “Don’t Talk About It”, a great follow up to her previous release, “It’s So Cruel”. This new tune, the title track from her forthcoming new album, is a solid step forward for the songwriter; now Nashville based, Bex Chilcott has really continued to flourish as a…

A fresh single from Melbourne’s Moonlover comes to us this week in the form of “Queen of Sheba”. Another cut from his exciting debut album Thou Shall Be Free (expect it March 2nd), the emphasis of “Queen of Sheba” heavily sits with Moonlover’s (aka Quang Dinh) awesome voice and enticing synths and bass. There’s a lilting romance and airiness…

Flint Eastwood was recently in the country for Falls over New Year’s (if you were able to catch her), finally bringing her excellent Broke Royalty EP out this way for the first time. Today, we’re digging her track “Monster” – the EP track that has this week had its official music video unveiled! Directed and edited…

English indie rockers The Vaccines are back in full force with new single “I Can’t Quit”. The new track, taken from upcoming album Combat Sports is a return to the band’s roots.

Fresh outta Melbourne, Totally Mild have brought us a great little clip for their tune, “Lucky Stars”. Putting the band’s Elizabeth Mitchell front and centre for this performance in studio, the music video comes directed by Tobias Willis. Capturing the intimacy of the pop song, the music video depicts the longing behind Mitchell’s lyrics; a heartbreaker of a…

When Michigan born singer songwriter BØRNS released his first album, Dopamine, it was obvious that he was one to watch. The debut was met with critical acclaim, reaching international fame with tracks “10,000 Pools” and “Electric Love”. The topic on everyone’s lips was his sweet falsetto voice, which at first listen may be mistaken for a woman. On new…

Alice Ivy is gearing up for the release of her much anticipated debut album, I’m Dreaming, next month and man, we’ve been loving this one since we copped a cheeky advance stream this week (review coming soon). The Melbourne producer and songwriter has been doing her thing on the local scene for a few years now…

We’ve been enjoying what Milk & Bone have been doing over the past year; the road leading to the release of the band’s sophomore album Deception Bay has been a promising one for the group and in their latest single, “Nevermore”, Milk & Bone have properly stepped up their game. Gorgeously melodic and stunning in its vocal…

Led by Fat White Family‘s Saul Adamczewski and Childhood‘s Ben Romans-Hopcraft, Insecure Men have fast become an act to watch in 2018. The music is a great blend of electronic pop, with a nostalgic throwback element to the pop music being generated in the 80’s and early 90’s. Insecure Men’s self-titled debut album is out next month but in the meantime,…

We first met Youngr in a hotel lobby at The Great Escape back in 2017. Ahead of a wild final-night-of-festival show, the producer and multi-instrumentalist was approaching what wound up being a sweaty, wall-to-wall banger of a gig that had Youngr emerge as an artist to watch going into the rest of the year. It’s no…

Folk-pop trio Belle Miners are currently on the road with their Powerful Owl record; an album we’ve come across in recent weeks and have been struck by. Blending gorgeous harmonies with stunning folk-pop instrumentation, Belle Miners’ “Night Flight” is already a winner in our eyes and today, we’re sharin’ the music video so you can get switched on…

When US indie giants The National received a Grammy nomination for best packaging, it seemed fitting that the band would translate their acclaimed album art into video form. The new music video for “Sleep Well Beast”, like the album art, is a collaboration between the band, graphic designer Luke Hayman, artist Casey Reas and photographer…

To say Wafia has blown up in 2017 is an understatement. From a massive headline Aussie tour to playing massive European shows with BØRNS, plus the huge success of previous single “Bodies”, it’s suffice to say that Wafia is a name you should know. The ride only continues into the new year, with a North…

Melbournian alt-pop group City Calm Down are known for new wave jams that induce long, thoughtful stares into the distance. Their latest offering is no different, “In This Modern Land” serving up a melancholy exploration of loneliness in the internet age. Frontman Jack Bourke’s bold baritone offers striking vocals, with the slow burning track building…

When Michigan born singer songwriter BØRNS released his first album, Dopamine, it was obvious that he was one to watch. The debut was met with critical acclaim, reaching international fame with tracks “10,000 Pools” and “Electric Love”.

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are known for their psychedelic riffs, crazy storytelling and churning out music quicker than seems possible. With four full length albums already under their belt in this year alone, it seems that King Gizzard is on track to release album number five this year. Without much fan fare the…

When MGMT released their hit debut Oracular Spectacular  in 2007, massive pop hits “Electric Feel” and “Kids” showed a little of the duo’s dark side, but remained largely upbeat dance tracks. As the years have worn on, the bands’ obsession with death has become obvious, with each release venturing into darker and darker territory. With new…
