BELOVED AMERICAN POP BAND HOT CHELLE RAE RETURN WITH PARTY ANTHEM ‘DO THE DAMN THING’

Beloved American pop band Hot Chelle Rae (HCR) are back!

The fun-loving boys from Nashville return to Australian radio today with their infectious new single “Do The Damn Thing”

Hot Chelle Rae was founded in Nashville circa 2005 and today consists of Ryan Follese, Nash Overstreet and Jamie Follese. Having grown up in musically-inclined households, the three came of age among the songwriting community in Nashville. Hence the foundation upon which HCR was built and boils down to really good music.

The band gained widespread acclaim from their 2011 triple platinum single “Tonight Tonight,” which went #1 across Top 40 radio and sold over 3 million copies, while their single “I Like It Like That” peaked at #28 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Their skills as songsmiths are mirrored by their live performance chops, refined through years of touring alongside the likes of Taylor Swift, Demi Lovato and Justin Bieber, HCR has become known for their incredible musicianship and intoxicating energy on stage.

Garnering over 9M followers across their social media platforms and millions of fans on YouTube the band are consistently engaged with their global audience.

In 2015 they took a break from the limelight, focusing on their careers as songwriters. During this time, their individual crafts flourished, inspiring them to join forces once again. Slated with a batch of A+ tunes and sound indicative of their growth as writers and people, HCR draws on optimistic themes, a general feel-good mentality and snapshots from their personal lives and experiences.

Coming off their char- topping success of their single “I Hate LA,” Hot Chelle Rae dropped “Do The Damn Thing” featuring Chord Overstreet and LEVI in the US last week. The track was immediately added to over 24 leading playlists such as New Music Friday, Global New Music, New In Pop, and Pandora, the catchy, fun pop tune continues to build momentum and is out now in Australia on Three Amigos Records.

“We’re excited to be releasing Do The Damn Thing. In a time where everything has been negative and heavy, this song is something positive and light for people to have fun and party to.” Hot Chelle Rae

DARK HUMOURED DARRIN BRADBURY SHARES VIDEO FOR NEW TRACK “PIZZA & DRUGS”

written by the partae

“His caustic reflections are delivered with dark humour: He makes everyday life funny, and he makes you smile with the weirder scenarios he brings to life.” – NPR Music

“Bradbury’s catalog is built with memorable songs that deal with the humour and heartache of modern American life.” – American Songwriter

“I’ve been an addict all my life, all types, big and small,” said Nashville storyteller Darrin Bradbury while explaining the inspirations behind his latest track, titled “Pizza & Drugs”. “I’ve been addicted to drugs, food, television, applause, love, sex, good conversation, highways, skateboards, colours, mopeds, booze, words, and brush strokes. People who aren’t addicts tend to understand it’s something you’re born with but often don’t get it’s something you die with regardless of whether you’re using or not.”

Directed by Joshua Shoemaker, the song’s new video is quite literally filled to the brim with pizza and pills.

Listen and watch it HERE.

“This song, along with all the other songs is just another attempt to shout something into the bowels of a void before it swallows you,” Bradbury continues. “Go get high to it, see what it says – but if you do, I’d recommend you go bold: do a drug your mama would gasp at, find yourself belly down on motel carpet staring at the foot of a bed counting dust bunnies with a little blood coming out ya nose. Or just order a pizza – cuz life is what it makes of you when you go out trying to make something of it…”

Last month Bradbury released the song “Deanna, Deanna”, his first new music in two years. “The punk graced song has more than enough charm to stay with you well after you hear it, if you’re already not hitting repeat to play it over and over,” said Closed Captioned.

Listen to it HERE.

Bradbury’s critically acclaimed album Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs was released 2019. Upon its release No Depression of the record: “Darrin Bradbury spins magic, both dark and light, out of the mundane…Talking Dogs & Atom Bombs almost never acquiesces to hopelessness without finding some little twist of humour or moment of wonder to relish.”

Music Interviews Music News

Marcelo De La Vega

written by the partae

Where are you currently based?

I was born in Sydney, but I live in London now. I’ve been here for 4 years and I love it. No plans on leaving anytime soon. Although I do miss the sun sometimes.

How did you first start playing music?

I got expelled from high school and the only school that would let me in after that was an arts-driven school called Reddam house in Bondi Beach. It was filled with creative opportunities which my school prior hadn’t been, it was the first time I’d seen the popular group be filled with smart and artistic people opposed to the archetypal athlete alpha-male. I somehow managed to con my way into an audition for a new band some of the kids were starting. I had to learn “DamnIt” by Blink 182 in a week, I was a pretty horrible guitar player, and I could only just hold a note with my voice. I somehow managed to live up to my bold claims of being both a great vocalist and guitarist, at least for that song. Hanging out with those guys, I really found my passion for being in a group of people and playing the music you all love. Playing in a group is still to this day my favourite way to write music

What’s been happening recently?

I’ve been writing my next record! Over lock down I set up a studio in my house, so I’ve basically just been writing and recording every day. it’s definitely made the last 6 months much easier. Other than that I’ve just released my debut EP and that was so exciting to finally have out. It’s so nice to know people are listening and hopefully enjoying these songs.

You’ve just released your EP ‘Conversation’ with lead single of the same name, what influenced the sound and songwriting for the EP as a whole and the single Conversation?

To be honest the biggest inspiration were my friends who I wrote and recorded the record with. The bulk of the EP was born actually playing within a group setting or one on one with an instrument and note pad in hand mostly, far away from a computer. A lot of the songs have a plethora of live components to them which I’m also really proud of. Be that Paris being one whole vocal take, or Conversation having drums, bass and piano recorded simultaneously and one whole take.

How did you go about writing the EP?

I wrote it between my co-writer Charlotte Freud’s house and my producer Pete Hutchings house. The whole process happened really naturally and stemmed from a place of jamming and hanging out opposed to the typical session studio environment.

What does the EP mean to you?

Well, it means enough that I got ‘Conversation’ tattooed on my arm at 4am by some random guy in the back room of a club when I was drunk on Halloween 2019. It’s really a story of my life during the happiest and saddest I’ve ever been. But mostly it’s the time I spent making it with my friends that means the most to me, a lot more than the actual sentiment of the songs if I’m honest.

Where and when did you record/produce/master and how did you approach the process?

We mainly recorded it between my producers living room and RAK Studio 3 in St. Johns Wood. Again, it was just a lot of playing these songs live and recording what we came up with, just having fun. I guess I didn’t really approach it in any definitive way because I didn’t feel like work or like we had to force art. Everything just happened the way it was meant too.

Who did you work with during the creation of the EP?

Most of the lyrics and melody I either wrote on my own or with my co-writer Charlotte Freud, and again she’s my best friend so it didn’t really feel like work. Other than that, my producer Pete Hutchings who’s worked with Adele, Royal Blood and Lady Gaga. My drummer Chris Mass who’s Mumford & Sons’ drummer. Kieran Jones who plays bass for Dermot Kennedy and is now my co-producer on the record I’m working on now. And a few other amazing friends who I was lucky enough to get into the studio.

What did you find most challenging and rewarding?

There wasn’t really anything I found challenging, it all felt really rewarding! I was working in cafes and bars while I recorded the whole thing, so just being able to be in the studio was the part that was most special. Doing what I love with people I love.

You co-directed each of the music video’s for each single, please tell us about this process:

I managed to be mentored by my good friend Liam Clarke while I was in Sydney last year, and he basically taught me everything I know about direction. He co-directed the first two music videos with me and my childhood best mate Em Meades. It was definitely a learning curve, especially doing everything on film. But when I came back to London and came up with the concept of Vinnie Vegas the sad clown, I took everything Liam showed me and put it to work to create the Conversation music video. That song and video are the two things I’m most proud of that I’ve created thus far.

Where and when did you film?

The ‘Conversation’ video was basically all shot in central London near where I live. They say shoot what you know so we used a lot of locations that I walk past every day.

How did the concepts for the music video’s come about?

Each concept came about very differently. ‘Told you’ stemmed from the lyric “emptying the clouds’, ‘Broke & Criminal’ was a reference to ‘Natural Born Killers’, and ‘Conversation’ I was just really tired of taking myself too seriously so I wanted to do something really silly. And I wanted to do something with my dog who sadly passed away a few weeks after we finished filming. So now the song and video have a whole new meaning to me.

You were signed at just 17 in Australia before parting ways and moving halfway across the world to London where you’re now based, how was the initial transition and how are you finding living in London now?

The transition wasn’t too jarring actually! I initially got signed in America so all the time I spent between LA and New York prepared me for living overseas. I love London, it’s my favourite place in the world. Every day I wake up feeling blessed that I’m able to live here.

Who are you listening to at the moment?

Mostly Tyler, the Creator and Jeff Buckley. I’ve been listening to Childish Gambino’s record that came out in 2020 a lot, it’s amazing. I just discovered Maggie Rogers and her album ‘Notes from the Archive’ is incredible. Carol King is on a never-ending cycle of repeat and a lot of Tribe Called Quest. I’m currently listening to Brockhampton’s new album while writing this and it is really great.

What do you like to do away from music?

I own a clothing label with my sister. It’s a sustainable women’s label and that’s been our little lockdown baby, it’s a really fun way of being creative that I hadn’t explored before. It’s called Cielo Studios, check it if you want to look cool and save the planet while doing it.

What’s planned for 2021?

More music! I wanna put out an 8-song mixtape and drop a video for each song, so between that and Cielo Studios I’m gonna be pretty busy! Hopefully fit some live shows whenever we are allowed to.

QUEENSLAND ARTISTS SHINE: 2021 QUEENSLAND MUSIC AWARDS WINNERS ANNOUNCED

written by the partae

Sycco accepting the ‘Song Of the Year’ award at the 2021 QMAs

Taking place last night in Brisbane’s Fortitude Valley, the 2021 Queensland Music Awards (QMAs) was a long-awaited coming together for the music community to make history. Hosted by Aimon Clark and Patience Hodgson, with a sold out crowd of over 700+ guests and a total of 30 award categories, Queensland’s night of nights was a well-deserved celebration of the artistic and commercial success of the state’s best emerging and established artists and their teams over the last 12 months.

Miiesha had an incredible night as the artist with the most overall wins, taking home 3x awards in the Indigenous, Soul / Funk / RnB, and Remote categories for ‘Twisting Words’ off her stunning acclaimed debut record ‘Nyaaringu’. More historic moments came when Jesswar’s explosive war-cry track ‘Venom’ took home the Hip Hop / Rap crown, marking her as the first female artist to win this category since its introduction 4 years ago. Winning the Folk / Singer-Songwriter award for the second year in a row was Brisbane music and visual artist Jaguar Jonze with her conceptual masterpiece ‘MURDER’.

Taking out the top honours were Ball Park Music who won Album Of The Year with their critically-acclaimed self-titled album and Sycco who won both Song Of The Year and the Pop category award for her release ‘Dribble’. Both artists celebrated their wins with show-stopping and memorable performances under the majestic glittering chandeliers of the Fortitude Music Hall stage.

Leaving the stage with an impressive 2x awards, Gold Coast soul-folk-pop newcomer Beckah Amani took home the Emerging Artist Award and also the coveted 2021 Billy Thorpe Scholarship for her formidable rich vocal tones and minimalist instrumentalisation delivering personal, meaningful, and political lyrics. Selected by a panel of judges and Lynn Thorpe herself, the Scholarship has supported emerging musicians for the past 13 years, and grants the winner $10,000 to record their next release along with career planning advice from Chugg Entertainment.

Minister for the Arts Leeanne Enoch congratulated the 2021 Queensland Music Award winners on their resilient and resounding success over the past year. “Congratulations to Beckah Amani, the 2021 Billy Thorpe Scholarship winner, who impressed the judges with her incredible voice and mature songwriting,” Minister Enoch said.

“The judging panel were impressed with her incredible story and believe that this funding will help Beckah continue her work over the next 12 months.”

“The Palaszczuk Government supports live music in Queensland, including with annual funding to QMusic, and the Billy Thorpe Scholarship. Our Government acknowledges the significant impact of COVID-19 on the broader live music industry, which is why we continue to support the sector with a $22.5 million Arts and Cultural Recovery Package. This has included funding for artists, live music programming and live music venues.

The arts are key to delivering our plan for economic recovery, each year contributing $8.5 billion into the state’s economy and supporting more than 92,000 jobs for Queenslanders,” Minister Enoch said.

The incredible commercial and international success of Queensland music was also on show during the night with Amy Shark winning the Highest Selling Single award for the second year in a row, this time for single ‘Everybody Rise’, Keith Urban winning the Highest Selling Album award for ‘The Speed Of Now Pt1’ and Sheppard winning the Export Achievement award.

“This year’s QMAs was a true celebration of what has become an incredible local music industry, one that our state can be proud of, both culturally and as a key export industry,” said QMusic CEO Angela Samut.

“With a massive 30 categories, our winners represent the true breadth of talent around our state and no doubt include superstars to follow in the footsteps of our Queensland greats that have gone on to change the music landscape globally.”

Other winners included These Four Walls, who won the Heavy category with ‘White Lies’, Young Franco was the winner for the Electronic / Dance category with ‘Juice (feat Pell)’, Melody Moko was the winner in the Country category with ‘Like Hank Would’, and last year’s Emerging Artist Hope D this year was the winner of the Rock category for her breakthrough Hottest 100-placing hit ‘Second’.

Taking a moment in the ceremony to recognise her lifetime contribution to Queensland music with a special tribute by Trichotomy ft. Zac Hurran, Lynette Irwin was awarded the Grant Mclennan Lifetime Achievement Award for her prolific and ongoing support of the Jazz Community over the past 20+ years, including artistic director at Brisbane International Jazz Festival and president at Jazz Queensland.

The brand new QMA’s initiative ‘The Ones To Watch and Listen’, highlights Queensland’s most promising emerging artists as selected by the QMusic CEO and Programming team from the 2021 finalists and highly commended artists. The artists selected for the debut year of this initiative are: Bekah Amani, Billie Rose, CLOE TERARE, Colie, MiCCY, Jelly Oshen, Order Sixty6, Peach Fur, Selve, and Tbi$h.

Rounding out a momentous night of celebration and recognition for Queensland music are the winners of the People’s Choice Awards, where the state’s favourite music venues and festivals were voted by the public and judged by an industry panel. Taking home the award for Metro Venue of The Year was Brisbane’s esteemed theatre-venue The Tivoli, the Regional Venue Of The Year award went to Sunshine Coast mainstay The Nightquarter, and Festival Of The Year was crowned to long-standing and beloved music and cultural event Woodford Folk Festival.

THE LAZY EYES SHARE KALEIDOSCOPIC NEW SINGLE ‘NOBODY TAUGHT ME’

written by the partae

PRAISE FOR THE LAZY EYES

“Honest-to-god really good”
V Man

“Indie’s next generation prove ready for a much bigger stage”
Sydney Morning Herald

“A phenomenal blend of modern sensibilities and classic experimental pop”
American Songwriter

“The makings of a psych giant”
NME Magazine (4 Stars)

“If Brian Wilson joined Tame Impala for a day”
DIY Magazine

“Their music retains a youthful freshness that, rather than recycling, reinvigorates the ingredients they have taken from their heroes”
Monster Children

“Breath-taking”
Life Without Andy

Following a sold out headline tour and the group’s own curated festival, The Lazy Eyes today unveil their latest offering, the bubbly jaunt, ‘Nobody Taught Me‘. Listen + watch HERE.

The Lazy Eyes continue to dig deeper on ‘Nobody Taught Me‘, capturing that pure delight that comes from homecoming – retracing memories with new steps, returning to a place of connection, and rewatching home videos. Inspired by band member Harvey’s trips to visit his grandparents in England and his time spent over there, ‘Nobody Taught Me‘ recalls Penny Lane’s ‘barber showing photographs’. A leisurely side step compared to its predecessor ‘Where’s My Brain?‘, with this new single The Lazy Eyes continue to prove their position in psych rock’s new vanguard, demonstrating new depths to their iteration, sans pastiche or revivalism.

Harvey explains, “When I was younger, I would visit my grandparents who live in England every few years. On this one trip, I became friends with the kids who lived on my grandparents street. We would meet up everyday and do things that kids do like run around, have a hit with a tennis ball, play hide and seek, you know. Then the next time I went to England, I was so excited to catch up and play with them again only to find out that they had all left and moved houses. It was pretty sad but I still had a nice trip hanging out with my grandparents (who cameo in the music video) haha. ‘Nobody Taught Me’ encapsulates the good and the sad times experienced in England, from the excitement of playing on the street to the heartbreak of being left alone.”

Already reaching new heights after a breakthrough 2020, ‘Where’s My Brain?‘ saw The Lazy Eyes sell out their debut headline tour and inaugural all ages festival, Lazyfest which garnered rave reviews from the Sydney Morning Herald, Life Without Andy and punters alike. The single went on to receive praise from V Man, NME, KCRW, Alt Citizen, FBi Radio, Double J and Unearthed, Spin, Dublab, Northern Transmissions and more. Now with EP2 on the horizon, and what under traditional circumstances would have been a period of international showcases for the band, between appearances at a would-be SXSW, The Great Escape and Splendour In The Grass. Instead, the band regrouped to Lindfield Studios, revitalised and focused on bringing more recordings to life with their new lineup.

The Lazy Eyes are Harvey Geraghty (vocals, guitar, keyboard), Itay Shachar (vocals, guitar), Leon Karagic (bass) and Noah Martin (drums). At 15 years old, they met at a performing arts high school which provided fertile ground to pursue their creative endeavours. In the time since, the group have built a cult following with their magnetic live set. Long before their debut single, word of them spread like wildfire. This eventually reached the BBC’s Abbie McCarthy who aired the then unreleased ‘Cheesy Love Song‘ during a takeover on Australia’s national youth broadcaster, triple j. In the year that followed, their debut EP saw The Lazy Eyes sell out headline shows, amass a combined 1.5 million streams and receive praise from Apple Music’s Matt Wilkinson, Bandcamp, Atwood Magazine, American Songwriter, Monster Children, land at #17 on triple j Unearthed’s Top 50 Most Played Artists of 2020 and many more. If their position in the coveted NME 100 for 2021 is any indication for the year ahead, The Lazy Eyes promise to hold nothing back.

BABE RAINBOW RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘READY FOR TOMORROW’

BABE RAINBOW SHARE NEW SINGLE ‘READY FOR TOMORROW’

WATCH VIDEO HERE

🔶 NEW ALBUM ‘CHANGING COLOURS’ OUT NEXT FRIDAY, MAY 14TH

Photo credit: Maclay Heriot

Babe Rainbow are making music vividly respectful of the past, whilst emphatically living in the present; a confluence of sounds and sentiments from a place between yesterday and tomorrow.

Sharing the euphoric Jaden Smith collab ‘Your Imagination’ back in March, ‘Ready For Tomorrow’ is the prophetic new single, both taken from new album Changing Colours released next week on 14th May through Flightless Records.

‘Ready for Tomorrow’ is a contradiction of singer Angus Dowling’s disco flavour up the front and Cool Breeze folk picking guitar style as its anchor. It finds the band celebrating, but in a mood. He says, “it’s about 21st-century life, finding relief from the stress of both the future and the past. It is about Persephone running into her mother Demeters comforting arms”.

Keeping it theirs and local, ‘Ready for Tomorrow’ is accompanied by a video shot by band confidante and former bass player Jordan Malane, around the local village watering hole, the Eltham Hotel.

LISTEN HERE.

WATCH HERE.

The song was first born in the Topanga Canyon studio of producer Kyle Mudlark, and then finished with producer Wayne Connolly in the familiar surrounds of Music Farm Studios, in the Byron hinterland. Between those ends of the rainbow, the band has found a plot of land very much of their own.

Babe Rainbow have consolidated all that’s wonderful about their previous music, and pushed further in each direction on new album Changing Colours. A band that casually and organically celebrated the past whilst growing into their own original sound. A fold in a mythical road map between California and Byron Bay; compressing time, like a needle skipping over the past half-century of music.

Changing Colours is out next Friday, 14th May.

MNDSGN SHARES NEW SINGLE ‘MEDIUM RARE’ + RARE PLEASURE LP OUT JUNE 4TH

written by the partae

Today, Mndsgn shares ‘Medium Rare‘ from his forthcoming album Rare Pleasure, out June 4th on Stones Throw Records. The new track, with its evocative instrumentation and intricately crafted atmosphere, is cinematic in scope and perfectly captures the weight of the existential questions his lyrics ask. ‘Medium Rare’ follows the celestial and hypnotic ‘Slowdance‘ which came with an Eric Coleman-directed visual conceptualized by Mndsgn himself, as well as previously-released single ‘Hope You’re Doin’ Better‘ which came alongside a self-directed video.

STREAM ‘MEDIUM RARE’ BY MNDSGN

11. Rare Pleasure IV

Rare Pleasure is Mndsgn’s third album to be released on Stones Throw Records. Following 2016’s Body Wash, this album truly shows the artist’s evolution from his roots as a heralded beatmaker to vocalist, songwriter and arranger. Though he began writing for the album in 2018, the final recordings took just a week in studio with the help of trusted collaborators: Swarvy on bass, guitar and as Musical Director for the sessions, Stones Throw label mate Kiefer Shackelford on keys, drum work by Will Logan, the blessed percussion of Carlos Niño, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson on strings, and accompanying vocals from Fousheé and Anna Wise.

Inspired by soundtrack music, samba, exotica and ’70s/’80s library records, Rare Pleasure is intensely intimate, sourcing lyrics from Mndsgn’s family and interpersonal experiences, and reflective of the world at large. Despite the tenderness of the recordings, the music is joyfully vibrant and draws on Mndsgn’s formative experiences as a b-boy, showcasing a range of rhythms that will make you want to groove. The album is available to pre-order on vinyl now and will begin shipping out on May 7th, allowing fans to listen to the album ahead of the June 4th release date. Pre-order it here.

Praise for Mndsgn

‘engages with classic ’80s R&B and boogie funk, pairing his adventurous sound with themes of self-actualization and human connection’
– Pitchfork

‘a dreamy, vamped out trip’
– The FADER

‘Everything about it works, from the lo-fi artwork, to the lingering samples, measured basslines and sedate beats, but there is a feeling of urgency and gravity to these tracks.’

NERVE SHARES NEW TRACK ‘ONE IN A MILLION’ FT. JK-47 TALL POPPY SEASON EP OUT MAY 21

written by the partae

PRAISE FOR NERVE

Best Australian Rappers in 2020
Red Bull Music

“Brisbane’s golden child of grime”
Acclaim

“Nerve’s a force now too big to be reckoned with”
Purple Sneakers

“One of the best in Aus right now”
Declan Byrne, triple j

Hot off their breakout collaboration ‘Sunday Roast’, two of Australia’s fastest-rising artists, Nerve & JK-47 connect once more on ‘One In A Million’. Listen HERE.

Since first collaborating, the two have worked tirelessly to hone their individual crafts while dominating the local scene. This new release is a slice of hyperactive bravado that sees the two rapidly trade verses over bombastic production, proving that their talents really are ‘One In A Million’. Together, Nerve and JK-47 deliver a downright anthemic call to calls – believe and you too shall prosper. ‘One In A Million’ Nerve reveals is a song “made for anyone that’s wary of stepping outside the box and questioning the systems that they find themselves living in. Everyone can be one in a million at something – you just need to find your thing and put your heart and soul into it.”

Reflecting on the inspiration, he continues “I knew people would expect a lot from JK and myself with anything we put out, given our previous releases. I wanted to create something uplifting and energetic but also allow space for us to touch on real issues that we resonate with socially and politically – all while making a tune that will slap at a festival and blow the trunk out of a Nissan skyline.”

After dominating Australia’s underground rap/grime scenes, performing at festivals nationwide, and collaborating with international heavy-hitters like Aitch; Meanjin/Brisbane talent Nerve will release his Tall Poppy Season EP on May 21. Including the previously released ‘Missed Calls’, praised by triple j, NME, RAGE, Acclaim, and more and recent hit ‘Migraines’, Nerve bridges his preference for assertive bars with his ear for infectious pop melodies into his most accomplished and versatile effort yet. Tall Poppy Season flexes his production chops with beats that bring you from the club to the bedroom, while lyrically touching on his vulnerability and uncertainty as a young artist.

Nerve final words are delivered with a sense of motivation. “This is for anyone that is hesitant to be seen as a tall poppy and achieve their goals and dreams,” Nerve says. “Don’t let anyone try and cut you down to size. You will always grow back twice as high.”

Festival of Jewish Arts and Music reveals lineup for their third storytelling slam night, Spun Stories – Is This My Story To Tell?

written by the partae

Melbourne’s FOJAM (Festival of Jewish Arts and Music) is excited to announce another edition of their popular storytelling and slam poetry night with the upcoming event Spun Stories – Is This My Story To Tell? Who has the ‘right’ to tell which story? Are we only able to tell stories that we have experienced ourselves? Is it ok to try and embody another character and tell their story as an act of empathy and compassion? Can we separate the character of a person from the work they create?

This year’s lineup includes writer, journalist, broadcaster and descendent of Holocaust survivors, Ramona Koval; acclaimed queer Jewish writer, researcher & online editor at Archer Magazine, Roz Bellamy; nonfiction writer, poet, artist and high school teacher, Alice Chipkin; proud Birpai-Thungutti man, writer, journalist and senior editor for News Online at NITV, Jack Latimore; celebrated producer, artist, multi-instrumentalist and sometimes rapper, Joelistics; and multi-award winning Zimbabwean writer and performance poet, Thabani Tshuma.

The evening will be moderated by queer, Jewish and Chinese woman of colour, Elsa Tuet-Rosenberg – an educator, facilitator, activist, performer, and a winner of Australia’s coveted 30 under 30 awards for LGBTQIA+ role models and leaders in 2020.

FOJAM Artistic Director, Lior Albeck-Ripka says,“We’re living in a time when the concept of ‘death of the author’ has come to mean cancelling an artist’s body of work. At the same time, we are grappling with the injustices of the marginalised and how we move forward and equalise the way history is written, the way stories are told and who is telling whose story. It all feels important and complicated, but it can also feel stifling – especially in the world of creativity and art. Through this event we hope to unpack some of the nuance and hear directly from some of the artists grappling with their stories. ”

Taking place Wednesday 2 June at Howler in Brunswick, Spun Stories – Is This My Story To Tell? will also be broadcast live, available to stream online for up to four days following the event, wherever you are in the world. In-venue and online tickets are available now from the FOJAM website, but places are limited so don’t delay.

Situated on the sunny corner of Botany & Henderson roads, the Redfern Surf Club stands as one of the few live music spaces in the area with the capacity to cater to emerging artists, particularly in a post lock-out-laws Sydney. Of the series, New shares, “Having live music at the Surf Club has always been part of our long term plan and feels really natural in the space. The music community embraced us from the start, so we’re excited to get these shows happening now and in the future.”

Kicking off the series next month will be Byron-come-Sydney-sider MAY-A who has within the span of just three singles, ‘Green‘, ‘Apricots‘ and ‘Time I Love To Waste‘ and a sold-out debut tour, confirmed her position as part of the new vanguard of Australian pop. She will be joined by Liyah Knight and D’Arcy Spiller. Rapper Tasman Keith heads the second event alongside Ms Thandi and Mi-Kaisha on May 23. Keith joins the series off the back a busy 12 months including the release of his debut mixtape, latest single ‘ONE‘ with Kwame and an extensive tour run with Midnight Oil across the Makarrata Project.

Byron Bay band Mini Skirt are sure to blow the roof clean off the Surf Club with their May 30 bill. Promising a dry, stinging take on garage rock, the band will be joined by Research Reactor Corp, Satanic Togas and eastern beaches newcomers Gully Days. With their debut EP, a Like A Version and killer live shows under their belt, Nick Littlemore and Alister Wright aka Vlossom join the series for a night of experimental and futuristic electronica, with Kult Kyss, and KYVA on support duty this June 6.

The final instalment of the series will fall on the June long weekend and include a stacked line up of bands and DJs that will run late into the night. Headlining the event will be beloved Sydney band PALMS following the release of their warmly embraced Intensity Sunshine EP, as well as buzz band Royel Otis, Ruben Neeson, Tild, The Blamers and DJs.

The first instalment of Surf Club Sundays is proudly presented by FBi Radio and made possible by Create NSW Play the City Grant, from which Redfern Surf Club are reinvesting all funds directly back into the music community including artists, production companies, sound engineers, photographers and crew.

Monet, Renoir, Pissarro and more: 100+ masterpieces of French Impressionism come to Melbourne direct from Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts

written by the partae

French Impressionism | NGV International | 4 June – 3 October 2021 | Admission fees apply

5 May 2021: In an international exclusive, the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) will present a major exhibition of more than 100 masterworks of French Impressionism in partnership with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA), an institution renowned world-wide for its rich holdings of Impressionist paintings. Opening in June 2021 as part of the Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition series, French Impressionism will feature works by Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, Mary Cassatt and more – including 79 that have never-before-been exhibited in Australia. These important loans from the MFA’s iconic collection provide the rare opportunity to see a significant grouping of Impressionist masterworks in Australia.

French Impressionism will chart the trajectory of the late-nineteenth century artistic movement, highlighting the key milestones and figures at the centre of this period of experimentation and revolution in modern art. Through an arresting display of paintings and works on paper that showcases the breadth of the movement, the exhibition will evoke the artistic energy and intellectual dynamism of the period by placing emphasis on the thoughts and observations of the artists themselves, revealing the social connections, artistic influences and personal relationships that united the group of radical practitioners at the centre of this new art movement.

Presented thematically across ten sections, the exhibition will open with early works by Monet and his forebears, Eugène Boudin and painters of the Barbizon School, illustrating their profound influence on Monet’s use of the then radical method of painting outdoors en plein air (‘in the open air’) to capture changing conditions in nature.

The growth of the movement in subsequent decades is mapped through an exploration of the favoured subjects and ideas of the Impressionists. Moving through an immersive exhibition design, audiences will experience the hallmarks of Impressionism, including distinctive brushwork, unique points of view, arresting use of colour, as well as places dear to the artists, such as Paris, Fontainebleau Forest, Pontoise, Giverny, the Normandy coast and the South of France. Many artists also placed equal weight on recording movement and change in urban and domestic realms. Still life paintings, intimate interiors and street scenes by such artists as Manet, Renoir and Gustave Caillebotte will also feature.

These broader themes are punctuated by focused sections of the exhibition that examine significant moments and characteristics in the practices of a selection of artists, including Renoir and his experimentation with pictorial effects in the 1880s, as well as Pissarro and his role as mentor to a number of other artists.

An exhibition highlight will be a breathtaking display of sixteen canvases by Claude Monet, arranged in an immersive display reminiscent of the distinctive, oval gallery Monet helped design for his famous Water Lilies at the Musée de l’Orangerie, Paris, between 1922 and his death in 1926. Painted over a thirty-year period, these paintings depict many of Monet’s most beloved scenes of nature in Argenteuil, the Normandy coast, the Mediterranean coast and his extraordinary garden in Giverny. Together, these paintings demonstrate the full scope of the artist’s immeasurable contribution to the Impressionist movement.

MFA Boston’s significant collection of French Impressionism benefitted from the collecting efforts of individual Bostonians, some of whom visited the artists in France during the movement’s height. Mary Cassatt, an American-born artist integral to the French Impressionist movement and whose work is featured in the exhibition, advocated among her fellow Americans for their patronage of her French colleagues, ensuring that many great Impressionist paintings found their way into important American collections.

Danny Pearson MP, Minister for Creative Industries, said: ‘This exhibition is set to be another blockbuster for the NGV and a drawcard for Melbourne and Victoria. Not only do exhibitions like French Impressionism provide Victorians with the opportunity to see some of the world’s biggest names in art in their own backyard, they attract visitors who inject millions into the economy – supporting Victoria’s recovery and strengthening our reputation as the creative state.’

Tony Ellwood AM, Director, National Gallery of Victoria said: ‘Paintings by the Impressionists are beloved world-wide for the artistic innovation and visual curiosity they represent, as well as for their breath-taking use of colour. This exhibition will give audiences the extraordinary opportunity to study more than 100 masterworks up-close, including Monet’s radiant scenes of the French countryside, and to discover the truly revolutionary origins of this important moment in modern art history.

‘We are grateful to our presenting partner, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, whose rich collection of Impressionist paintings has the unique capacity to narrate the history of French Impressionism with nuance, depth and flare. This is the first time the MFA Boston has lent such a large selection of works to Australia, and we are incredibly grateful to them for entrusting the NGV with these extraordinary treasures. A thematic presentation of this calibre and breadth will not be seen in Australia for many years,’ said Ellwood.

Matthew Teitelbaum, Ann and Graham Gund Director of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, said: ‘We are delighted to share these iconic works with the people of Australia, so that they may experience this transformational moment in the history of art. French Impressionism highlights artists and their relationships, their shared ambition and mutual support—ideals that are reflected in our relationship with the National Gallery of Victoria. We are grateful to their extraordinary team for creating a beautiful showcase for our treasured works. Our mutual endeavor has been one of vision, creativity and collaboration. This exhibition is a joyous celebration of our connections and a reminder that individuals and institutions thrive through reciprocity and generosity.’

French Impressionism, presented by the National Gallery of Victoria in partnership with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, will run 4 June to 3 October 2021 at NGV International, St Kilda Road, Melbourne. Further information is available via the NGV website.

EMERSON SNOWE ANNOUNCES EMERSON SNOWE’S SPLATTERPUNK EP FOR JUNE 23 + RELEASES NEW SONG ‘YOU’RE MY BOY, BABY!’

written by the partae

Following on from the release of ‘Frankenstein’ in Feb, Brisbane-via-Berlin singer-songwriter and all-round creative Emerson Snowe unveils his new single ‘You’re My Boy, Baby!’ and shares details of his new EP Emerson Snowe’s Splatterpunk. The five-track EP is confirmed for release on June 23.

Like all of the songs on the EP, ‘You’re My Boy, Baby!’ was self-written and self-produced, and mixed by Nicolas Vernhes (War On Drugs, Spoon, Deerhunter, Animal Collective). Emerson Snowe (aka Jarrod Mahon) was also behind the striking cover artwork. Despite the sunny, upbeat mood of the new song, the lyrics touch on sensitive material, reflecting on the end of a long-term relationship:

“I had just come out of a relationship a few days leading up to a small two week UK tour at the end of 2018. My ex-partner wanted to break it off, and I accepted it. I figured if that’s what they wanted, then there was no use in trying to change someone’s frame of mind when that has already made its way into it. Maybe that wasn’t the best way to go about it from my side, but mentally at that time I was already so exhausted because of other issues in my life. So the song is pretty literal, probably the most literal story there is from me at this point. The lyrics read like a private text message. Its about wanting the best for a partner, even though it didn’t work out with them, there is no doubt how significant they were in my life.”

WATCH: ‘You’re My Boy, Baby!’ by Emerson Snowe

‘You’re My Boy, Baby!’ lands with a self-directed video that was filmed during a dream trip to Japan in 2019, and sees the artist dancing his way through crowded city streets.

“Tokyo and Japanese culture has always been something I’ve been hugely inspired by. The horror movies in particular are so influential to me that I knew we had to shoot there. The people are the kindest and the art, fashion and music is second to none. The people are so appreciative of art, it reminds me of the feeling I had when I first started writing and playing shows. I got a chance to finally go to Tokyo to play a show at the end of 2019, we shot this video going through the streets. It has always been a massive dream of mine, it truly is a whole experience just being there – I have nothing but love for it.”

Emerson Snowe’s previous single ‘Frankenstein’ won praise from global sites including Under The Radar, DIY, Clash, So Young, Riot Magazine and NME, plus received multiple spins at BBC Radio 1 from Jack Saunders and at Apple 1 from Hamuman Welch. ‘Frankenstein’ also received over 100 plays across radio stations in Germany, Switzerland and Italy, in addition to airplay at triple j and community radio locally.

Emerson Snowe’s Splatterpunk will be the artist’s second EP release, following on from debut, That’s Rock ‘n’ Roll. From Brisbane originally, Emerson Snowe has toured with King Krule and GUM, and spent the last few years overseas, immersing himself into wider music, fashion and creative circles. He performed debut shows in Tokyo and LA, and also appeared at SXSW and The Great Escape. Currently based in Berlin, he walked the runway at Men’s Fashion Week in Paris 2020 for Geoffery B Small and is now represented in the region. He has continued to dance further in the fashion landscape globally, with coveted labels Gucci and Fendi also utilising his music in recent campaigns.

Emerson Snowe’s Splatterpunk EP will be released on June 23 by Liberation Records for the world, with the exception of Europe, where Berlin-based indie Duchess Box Records have the honours.

DESCENDENTS
ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM
9TH & WALNUT
FEATURING ORIGINAL LINE-UP
OUT JULY 23

Today, legendary punk band Descendents announce their upcoming album 9th & Walnut due out July 23 via Epitaph Records. Recorded in 2002, the original four-piece lineup — bassist Tony Lombardo, drummer Bill Stevenson, guitarist Frank Navetta (d. 2008), and vocalist Milo Aukerman — entered the studio to finally record the songs with which they first forged their genre-defining sound.

Named for their Long Beach practice space back in the day, the 18-track collection features the bands’ earliest material written from 1977 through 1980. The collection also includes Descendents’ debut tracks “Ride the Wild” & ”It’s a Hectic World” (heard here for the first time with vocals by Milo), and the Dave Clark Five’s “Glad All Over” with the full Descendents treatment.

The band offers the first glimpse of 9^th & Walnut with “Baby Doncha Know.” “’Baby Doncha Know’ was maybe the 5th song we learned,” recalls drummer Bill Stevenson. “We would go out to 9th & Walnut every weekend and practice all day. I mainly just remember being in awe of how ‘a kid my age, who goes to my high school’ could have written all these cool songs. Frank seemed to have a maturity beyond his years. I never asked him who or what it was about. I was just happy to be there with him and Tony”

Descendents are vocalist Milo Aukerman, bassist Tony Lombardo, late guitarist Frank Navetta, and drummer Bill Stevenson.

Madi Diaz Releases New Single/Video ‘Nervous’

written by the partae

‘Nervous’ video still by Jordan Bellamy

“An artist new to me that I hope you love.” – Bob Boilen, NPR Music

“[‘New Person, Old Place’ is] genuinely profound.” – The Guardian

“[‘New Person, Old Place’ is] half kiss-off, half facing-the-future resolution – and all uplifting inspiration.” – The Sunday Times

“[‘New Person, Old Place’ is] gorgeously folksy.” – Brooklyn Vegan

Today, Nashville-based songwriter Madi Diaz releases “Nervous,” a new single about recognising unhealthy coping mechanisms. “Nervous,” her third single for ANTI-, follows the evocative “New Person, Old Place” and “Man In Me,” and further presents Diaz’s ability to write direct and introspective music, a craft she’s spent years refining. The song’s frank lyrics are bellied by infectious guitar and Diaz’s buoyant voice: “I know why I lie to myself // I’m not really looking to get healthy // I have so many perspectives I’m losing perspective I make me nervous.” The accompanying video was shot in Nashville and directed by Jordan Bellamy. It was inspired by and includes an homage to the final scene of Andrei Tarkovsky’s film The Stalker, a film that has always resonated with Diaz through its otherworldly nature, as well as its thoughtful and often anxiety inducing pace.

“You know when you hold a mirror up to a mirror and you get an infinite amount of reflections from every angle? That’s what ‘Nervous’ is about,” says Diaz. “It’s when you’re in a loop of looking at yourself from every vantage point until you’re caught up in your own tangled web of bullshit. It’s about catching yourself acting out your crazy and you’re finally self aware enough to see it, but you’re still out of your body enough and curious enough to watch yourself do it.”

About ‘Slow Mornings’ EP:
A charming 6-tracker, the Slow Mornings EP courses through an incredibly formative period in Jack Botts’ life. Marking a memory bank of the highs and lows of the last 18 months, the EP dives into new love – let alone a long distance love in a COVID-world – and all its highs, lows, joys, frustrations and anticipations.

Jack shares: “This EP is a collection of tracks that represent a pretty crazy point in my life, and career. All the ups and downs of balancing a long distance relationship with work. It talks about all the moments when you want to throw the towel in and give up, to the realisation that giving up just isn’t an option, despite the heartache.

“The pandemic gave me a lot of time to think (sometimes too much) and dive in to different genres and styles of writing. I feel I ventured out a little bit more than I ever have, which I really enjoyed! This EP will always remind me of a really tough year, but appreciate everything that came from those lessons.”
