"So REAL. So PUNK. This grrrl gang is back and ready to explode" – Claire Mooney, triple j “VOIID have spent the past number of years establishing themselves as one of the country’s most unapologetic and relentless bands." – Happy Mag "Describing these girls as a powerhouse is, honestly, selling them short. They’re more than that—they’re a force to be reckoned with" – AAA Backstage Loud, proud and ready to riot. Brisbane based female punk band VOIID make a statement with hard-hitting track 'Sour' - taking a stance for women everywhere whilst raising awareness on a current worldwide topic. 'Sour' is accompanied by a new video clip, and the announcement of their third EP, premiered yesterday via Blunt Mag. 'Sour' is nostalgic of 90s grunge, both in sound and visual aesthetic. Distorted guitar riffs, crisp snares and slacker vocals permeate the soundscape, purposefully setting the tone of the track's narrative. Sticking to their guns, the band are unapologetic and passionate about the brash lyrics, highlighting the sensitive topic of sexual assault. "Our newest release touches on to the hard-hitting subjects such as dealing with sexual assault/abuse, being looked down on for your appearance and dealing with deteriorating relationships", explains drummer Jasmine Cannon. Outspoken and in-your-face, VOIID aim to use their creative license to call attention to topics that are both relatable and weighty. Jasmine continues to explain, "the importance of this song, the seriousness of it..we’re not going to hide our lyrics or experiences just so the mainstream can turn a blind eye". Filmed and edited by Jack Cassidy who created VOIID's previous video clip for 'Hell', the gritty and grimy video signifies a middle finger to the patriarchy. 'Sour' is from their third EP that will arrive in June.  The group have had a successful run in 2019, including plays on triple j unearthed, a premiere on triple j's Home & Hosed for 'Hell', and amassing over 230,000 streams across their Spotify and Apple Music to date. They also toured with DZ Deathrays alongside Polish Club and The Buoys as well as playing Festival Of The Sun Festival in December. Make way for VOIID - a band that is here stay and won't be silenced.  VOIID's single 'Sour' is out NOW. CONNECT ONLINE WITH VOIID

Kikagaku Moyo – The Croxton Melbourne Review, 4th March 2020

Ivy League Records are incredibly excited to reveal Live At The Forum by The Teskey Brothers – a limited edition, double-vinyl that will be released for Record Store Day on Saturday 18 April. The live album, recorded to analogue tape during the band’s sold-out four night stand at the beloved Melbourne venue last November, will be released on 180g, double-blue gatefold vinyl, available instore only at participating RSD venues.   As a teaser for fans, the band have released a live video for ‘Hold Me’ – also captured at one of last year’s sold-out Forum shows.  VIDEO: 'Hold Me' by The Teskey Brothers “We thought we’d try and record a live album with a tape machine, which is madness, but that’s our format so it’s the way we wanted to do it” – Sam Teskey Live At The Forum features songs from the band’s two critically acclaimed albums, Run Home Slow (2019) and Half Mile Harvest (2017), as well as a special cover of John Lennon’s ‘Jealous Guy’. The decision to release a live album was a natural one for The Teskey Brothers, who’ve spent the past few years captivating audiences around the world. Their non-stop touring schedule has included sold out shows across Australia & NZ (20+ sold-out dates in 2019 alone), New York, LA, San Francisco, Denver, Toronto, London, Dublin, Manchester, Glasgow, Paris, Amsterdam, Zurich and more. The band have also played to mammoth crowds at festivals such as Latitude Festival (UK), Firefly (US), North Sea Jazz (Netherlands), Bonnaroo (US), and at home, Splendour in the Grass, Meredith Music Festival & Byron Bay’s Bluesfest, to name a few.   2019 was an incredible year for the Warrandyte four-piece. The timeless Run Home Slow captured the hearts of music fans and critics across the world, earning the band three ARIA Awards (alongside a breathtaking performance of ‘Rain’ at the event), four Music Victoria Awards and a Grammy Nomination for Best Engineer Album, Non-Classical, recognising Paul Butler & Sam Teskey as the album engineers along with Melbourne’s Joe Carra as mastering engineer. Run Home Slow debuted at #2 on the ARIA Album chart in August and stayed in the top 7 for four consecutive weeks. A testament to the dedication of their loyal and new fans alike, release week also saw Run Home Slow and their debut, Half Mile Harvest sit at #1 and #2 respectively on the iTunes Album Chart. Having just returned for a sold-out UK & Europe tour, the band are enjoying a well-earned break before a Nth American headline tour later this year, as well as few more surprises to be revealed soon.

SKALPEL RELEASE THE FINAL SINGLE TAKEN FROM THEIR FORTHCOMING ALBUM VIA NOPAPER RECORDS / !K7 EVOKING A FUTURISTIC FEELING OF UNCERTAINTY, ‘BLOW’ IS AVAILABLE TO STREAM NOW

Melbourne’s Nat Vazer is excited to reveal her latest indie pop crooner ‘Grateful’. Out today, ‘Grateful’ joins beloved 2019 latecomer ‘Like Demi’, to appear on Vazer’s forthcoming debut album arriving mid-year via Hotel Motel Records. The anticipated release follows in the wake of Vazer’s 2018 EP We Used to Have Real Conversations, which featured breaking single ‘Keep Away From Parks’ and crowd favourite ‘Struggletown’. Fans of Nat Vazer’s distinct vocal charm and tender lyricism can revel in the palpable slacker-rock energy of ‘Grateful’ live when Vazer and her band head up the East Coast for a run of launch shows this March.   In 'Grateful' it's as if Vazer is gathering her thoughts live on record. Her stream-of-consciousness ponderings are highly considered, eloquent and raw, strewn over cathartic outbursts of ‘90s grunge and powerful guitar licks. A song navigating social equity in Australia and beyond, ‘Grateful’ situates Vazer as a leading voice of her generation, nestling in comfortably beside such indie contemporaries as Courtney Barnett Lucy Dacus, or Stella Donnelly. Produced by Robert Muiños (Julia Jacklin, Saskwatch) and featuring a fiery solo from bandmate Andy Campbell, ‘Grateful’ presents a nostalgic trip down memory lane from angst-ridden adolescence to budding sisterhood and beyond. “‘Grateful’ is an ode to all the inspiring female artists and role models out there, and a vent about the ongoing uphill battle for social equality. It’s about acknowledgement and respect, with a sprinkle of sarcasm and the kind of non-conformist attitude that used to make my Year 10 English teacher say, ‘girls like you are exactly what’s wrong with the world.’ In my head this song takes place in a hot, cowboy-esque desert town with smokey synths and tambourines in the same vein as The Brian Jonestown Massacre. In writing the guitar and drum parts, my artist child took a trip down memory lane and revisited old influences like Nirvana, The Dandy Warhols and The Beatles who had a real influence on my early days of guitar playing as a teen.” – Nat Vazer   Nat Vazer’s fast-growing reputation as an intricate songwriter and enthralling live performer have landed her support slots for Last Dinosaurs, #1 Dads, Carla Geneve, The Magic Numbers (UK) and a Victorian tour with Lime Cordiale. Performances at St Kilda Festival, Kyneton Music Festival, Changes, Not Fest and more have cemented Vazer as a prominent live force who can captivate audiences at large, both with and without her full live band. Nat is thrilled to be celebrating her latest release with an East Coast ‘Grateful’ single tour this autumn, hitting up Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra and Newcastle to support US band Twin Peaks. So be sure to head on down to your local to hear some of Nat Vazer’s whimsical storytelling with a bite of feminist defiance.   ‘Grateful’ Single Launch Tour Melbourne Saturday 28 March - The Old Bar Double Single Launch With Good Pash Supported by Eaglemont + AM Reruns Tickets: theoldbar.com.au  Thirroul Wednesday 8 April 2020 - Franks Wild Years  Supports TBA More info: frankswildyears.com Newcastle Thursday 9 April – Small Ballroom Supporting Twin Peaks (US) Tickets: Oztix Canberra Friday 10 April – Smiths Alternative National Anti Folk Festival Tickets: smithsalternative.com Sydney Saturday 11 April - Golden Age Cinema Support From Goodside Free Entry www.ourgoldenage.com.au/live-music  Melbourne Saturday 18 April - Rocksteady Records Record Store Day 2020 - Full Line Up TBA Free Entry and All Ages ‘Grateful’ is out now via Hotel Motel Records ‘Grateful’ Co-produced by Robert Mui​ñ​os and Nat Vazer Mixed by Ali Chant  Mastered by John Davis GRATEFUL - Lyrics There’s that girl who you adore Hanging on that poster wall She climbed so high, she broke the ceiling There’s that girl who you applaud She paved the way for us all So we can do it once more, with feeling And they tell me I should be grateful                  And I’ve been waiting for a girl like you  The broken system’s broken me down too  And I’ve been waiting for a girl like you              There’s that girl who you adore Hanging on that poster wall She climbed so high, she broke the ceiling  So we can do it once more, with feeling  They tell me it could be easy  And I should be grateful, I should be grateful                          Grateful to my own mother?  Grateful to fill the quota?  Just somebody else’s lover?  Just a significant ‘other’?  And I should be grateful?

SOFT EXPRESSION IS AVAILABLE NOW ON 12" VINYL & DIGITALLY ON FRIDAY 27 MARCH Soothsayer are excited to reveal the latest addition to their dynamic roster, Sydney musician, DJ and Retiree band member BODY CORP (aka Marco Vella). With previous releases on Pelvis Records, Plastic World and with band Retiree, Soothsayer today release BODY CORP’s club-ready EP Soft Expression exclusively on 12” vinyl, available for purchase on soothsayeronline.com, Bandcamp and select record stores. The EP will be released digitally on Friday 27 March.  To tide listeners over until they can get their hands on a wax copy, BODY CORP shares his first single from the release ‘You Don’t Know’, a delicious slice of no-fi house that incorporates mellow, celestial sounds that elevate the track to another sonic plane and was inspired by the foreign and unfamiliar soundscapes of Japan, during a trip Marco took some time ago:   "The track began with field recordings of a Japanese train guard’s announcements on the JR Line from Tokyo to Kyoto. Re-incarnated through experimentations in various Sydney studios and drawing influence from 90s acid house, ‘You Don’t Know’ was the beginning of what has become the Soft Expression EP. – BODY CORP The rest of Soft Expression was formed from evolving sessions, drawing inspiration from the dedicated local music scenes in Sydney and Melbourne and often finding a moment after to record sections of songs, resulting in a beautiful collection of house tracks that lean heavily on the sounds of the 90s and Marco’s love of the late night, while parading a distinct modern touch. Across four silk-laced originals (and one mind bending remix from Francis Inferno Orchestra – exclusive to the 12”), there are smudgy fingerprints of musical introspection.  ‘You Don’t Know’ showcases BODY CORP’s distinct style of vintage house with a sharp focus on tonight’s dancefloor.

Love Police are incredibly excited to announce the triumphant return of G.

Fletcher Gull 'Remember That You're Gone' EP Tour

Fletcher Gull ‘Remember That You’re Gone’ EP Tour

LA indie rock forbearers The Dream Syndicate are announcing their third ANTI- Records release today. Titled The Universe Inside, the mind-bending new album will be released on April 10. First single “The Regulator” kicks in instantly; at twenty minutes long, immerse yourself in the song and watch its new video HERE. Directed by David Daglish, the video is a psychedelic journey through New York City, equal parts panoramic, psychedelic, somnambulistic and political in all the best ways. George Harrison once said, “arrive without traveling.”  This is your ticket to The Universe Inside. Reminiscent of 70s Miles Davis and his chaotic brilliance, the track starts all fired up. Over of the course of the song, textures of eastern droning electric sitar (played by Stephen McCarthy of The Long Ryders), deep funky bass, haunting vocals, and saxophone flourishes by guest Marcus Tenney (a member of all-instrumental progressive ensemble Butcher Brown) grow into something delightful and unexpected. When one thinks of The Dream Syndicate, it is not just the wild abandon with which singer/guitarist Steve Wynn, drummer Dennis Duck, bassist Mark Walton, keyboardist Chris Cacavas and lead guitarist Jason Victor perform; it is the carefully constructed songwriting of Wynn that comes to mind. By now every rock critic in the country has predetermined who he or she feels Wynn reminds them of and what they think of that style of songs. This time, don’t! For the first time, every song is a group songwriting effort. ““The Regulator” is a microcosm of the entire record,” Wynn explains. “It was just a formless, trippy mass as we all started playing together. There was an early 70’s drum machine—a Maestro Rhythm King, the same model used on “There’s A Riot Goin’ On”—with Dennis locking in and setting the pace. Stephen grabbed an electric sitar because it was the first thing he saw. Jason and I were kicking pedals on like lab monkeys in a laboratory and Mark was a lightning rod, uniting all of those elements into one tough groove. I collected a list of random, unconnected lyric ideas that I kept on my phone. I tried them all out in random order in my home studio just to see how they would feel and that one-take test run is the vocal you hear!. There’s just so much lightning-in-a-jar, first take excitement on this record.” What seeps into this music are Dennis Duck’s knowledge of European avantgarde music, Jason Victor’s passion for 70s prog, Mark Walton’s experience in Southern-fried music collectives, Chris Cacavas’ hunger for sound manipulation and Wynn’s love of vintage electric jazz. This album could have been called The Art of The Improvisers - in one session, they recorded 80 continuous minutes of soundscapes. "All we added was air," Wynn explained. Which is to say aside from vocals, horns and a touch of percussion – every instrument is live as it happened.

THE DREAM SYNDICATE ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM ‘THE UNIVERSE INSIDE’, COMING OUT APRIL 10

Miami-based vocalist, musician and model Tama Gucci today shares his new single ‘I LET YOU’. The single features Brooklyn-based club producer X-Coast and is available to buy and stream  via b4 alongside a video directed by Gabriella Plotkin. Premiered live last week in NYC, Tama Gucci’s new single ‘I LET YOU’ is a statement of intent. The single hammers home the boundless club-ready potential of Tama’s take on cyber-goth pop. A fixture in Miami’s queer underground, Tama Gucci’s cybernetic productions fuse cool R&B with harder club-ready sensibilities. Tama’s deep-running fashion connections lead him to model for feted streetwear brand Hood By Air by age 21. His latest single follows two bootleg remixes including a viral rework of Blueface’s ‘Thotiana’ — described by Paper Magazine as “a tender, ethereal alt-R&B ballad” — and t.A.T.u’s noughties eurobeat banger ‘Not Gonna Get Us’. Now releasing via b4 — a label spotlit by Clash Magazine as one that defined new music in 2019 — ‘I LET YOU’ lifts the lid on one of Miami’s most exciting underground artists.

TAMA GUCCI Signs to b4 Releases new single & video ‘I LET YOU’

‘On The Widow’s Walk’ is the new studio album from The White Buffalo, the touring and recording persona of Jake Smith – US singer, songwriter, guitarist, teller of tales; the Emmy nominee whose voice – a timber-shakin’ baritone of gravitas and gravel – seems fuelled by a greater truth. Of the half-dozen albums thus far released under The White Buffalo banner, this latest 11-tracker – a loosely linked collection of dark thrills produced by Shooter Jennings, who also provides piano and keys – is the most collaborative and organic, the most sonically round.   ‘On The Widow’s Walk’ is available to pre-order from February 21st, signalling the start of a new worldwide relationship with Snakefarm Records, a young label within the Universal Music Group spotlighting roots, country rock, blues & Americana.   From the beginning, Oregon-born Smith has wilfully side-stepped genre, touching on a variety of musical threads – from Americana to punk, from brooding folk to driving rock ‘n’ roll – whilst maintaining a strong, signature style. His spontaneous delivery and narrative lyrics are at the coal-black heart of it all, instilling the songs – effectively, mini-movies – with a cinematic, hand-crafted quality, and this very much holds true for ‘On The Widow’s Walk’.   “I was floored by Jake’s voice and his lyricism,” recalls Shooter. “It was intimidating. But we had a really good time igniting our inspirations together. Jake is one of the best out there. I’m honoured that I got the chance to make this record come to life with him and his band. They let me into the fold and we made some fine music together. Long live the Jelly Crew!”   The ’Jelly Crew’ in question, in addition to Smith, comprises drummer Matt Lynott and bassist Christopher Hoffee, also responsible for many of the guitar parts. They recorded as live and as first-take as possible, using violin and pedal steel where required.   With an eclectic history to his illustrious name, Shooter simply has no interest in playing it safe; he sides with a diverse selection of talent, and his collaboration with The White Buffalo has produced a special body of work that is stripped and spiritual and sounds just like the artist.   At one point, the idea of a concept album was considered, but Smith didn’t want to leave out quality songs just because they might not fit a specific concept; hence, ‘On The Widow’s Walk’ has water and the ocean as underlying rather than dominant themes, a sense of longing too, something reflected in songs such as ‘Sycamore’, ‘River Of Love And Loss’ and the title track; it’s there in the front cover artwork, too – a portrait of Smith by UK artist Jack Browning.   Other subjects tackled include living for the moment (‘Problem Solution’ / ‘No History’), the soulless march of technology (‘Cursive’), the indiscriminate force of mother nature (‘Faster Than Fire’), plus what happens when the moral compass spins wildly out of control (‘The Rapture’, also lead single and lyric video).   “It’s a twisted, primitive tale of an unrelenting thirst for blood,” explains Smith. “With ‘The Rapture’, I wanted to blur the lines between animal and man, to create a tension of moral restraint and unbridled evil.”    From sinister through to plaintive, the overall feel is of all parts supporting a wider view under the album’s intriguing title, first mentioned by Lynott.   “We were driving through an East Coast seaport town and I asked what the little balconies were on top of the buildings,” recollects Smith. “Matt explained that the wives of the sailors would pace around on the roof-tops longing for their husbands to come home safely. There’s so much romance in that, the Widow’s Walk, plus of course the possibility of disturbing and dramatic things taking place.   “I guess what I’ve tried to do with this new album is to represent a broad range of emotions. There’s dark moments here, more uplifting moments, questioning moments, it’s not just one thing. Also, I like to put some confusion into my songs, which is a very human element, I think.”   ‘On The Widow’s Walk’ is a compelling, gimmick-free statement from an artist, now based in Southern California, whose activity between the musical lines has seen his star very much on the rise, playing to a million followers worldwide, achieving over 200 million streams to date, and securing a Top 10 spot in the TV / Film Syncs Chart for 2019. ‘On The Widow's Walk’ is released April 17th 2020 FOLLOW THE WHITE BUFFALO: Website Facebook Instagram Twitter

The White Buffalo confirms new studio album ‘On The Widow’s Walk’ set for release April 17th

Bakers Eddy return with a cracking new single ‘T-Shirt’ – a melancholic anthem from the Melbourne-via-Wellington pop-punk powerhouse, premiered by triple j’s Good Nights with Bridget Hustwaite. Bursting into focus via the band’s addictive pop-punk energy, ‘T-Shirt’ also leans into the deep, unpolished feelings that come with a breakup, as explained by lead singer Ciarann Babbington:   “I wrote the song after a long-distance relationship came to an end. I was in the middle of that messy period where all you do is think of this person and you seem to forget why you fell apart. It’s me dealing with regret and trying to make sense of all these feelings and emotions.” Listen to ‘T-Shirt’ here ‘T-Shirt’ was produced by Jon Grace (Dear Seattle, Jax Anderson, Northeast Party House, Dune Rats) & mixed by Grammy Award-nominated producer Doug Boehm (Girls, Twin Peaks, Tokyo Police Club), and follows the band’s recent singles ‘On My Own’ & ‘Can’t Afford It’.  Bakers Eddy will celebrate the release of ‘T-Shirt’ with a string of new live dates, including headline shows in Melbourne (Fri 20 Mar), Sydney (Sat 21 Mar), Wollongong (Sun 22 Mar), Brisbane (Fri 27 Mar), Perth (Fri 3 Apr) and Adelaide (Fri 10 Apr). Following the tour, the band play Collision Festival (Sat 4 Apr) before going on tour with Slowly Slowly across April – May. The busy touring schedule follows a non-stop summer of shows, including Party In The Paddock, NYE on the Hill, Festival of the Sun & more.  The band dominated critic’s ‘best of’ lists at last year’s Bigsound Festival, with The Music gushing “everyone wanted a piece of Bakers Eddy by week's end.” Bakers Eddy are garnering a reputation for being one of the most exciting new live acts in the country. Don’t miss your chance to catch Bakers Eddy’s renowned & raucous live show in the flesh!

After humble lo-fi beginnings in the Australian art-pop underground, Donny Benét has expanded his cult-like following across the globe with a resonant array of danceable repertoire dealing with love and affection. His next album marks a new chapter informed by a wealth of musical and personal development. Enter Mr Experience, the new album from Donny Benét released Friday 22nd May via Dot Dash Recordings / Remote Control Records.  To celebrate Mr Experience, Donny Benét will play a run of shows in UK & Europe throughout May and will return home to Australia in June. The east coast run of shows will begin at The Zoo in Brisbane on Friday 12th June, Sydney's Oxford Art Factory on Saturday 13th June and finish up Friday 19th June at Melbourne's Corner Hotel. Sincerity has been a key component of Donny Benét’s output since the beginning. His songs deal with genuine emotion served on a kitsch platter. An alter-ego manifested at the beginning of the 2010s, Donny has blurred the lines of artifice to create a back catalogue that can embrace and challenge – often simultaneously – the notion of irony in art. Mr Experience moves further away from ironic notions as Donny explores lyrical and musical themes which embody observations of maturation in his audience, his tight-knit musical community, and himself. While ‘mature’ is a term that often rings hollow as an album descriptor, the term couldn’t be more apt for Mr Experience. To push himself musically, Donny envisioned a soundtrack to a dinner party set in the late 1980s. While his earlier recordings drew inspiration from DIY pop conspirators such as Ariel Pink and John Maus, Donny channelled the stylings of Bryan Ferry and Hiroshi Yoshimura as the impetus for new material, evident on the intimacy found on current single ‘Girl Of My Dreams’ and its lush production (with a soothing whistle-along chorus for good measure). Mr Experience will be available digitally and released on classic black vinyl as well as a special 'fruit punch' coloured vinyl available exclusively via independent retailers. UK and European distribution via Proper Music Group.

DONNY BENÉT Announces new album Mr Experience Released 22nd May via Dot Dash Recordings Australian & European tour dates!

‘DETACH’ begun forming a few years ago after I played Pitch Festival. The song resurfaced when I missed my first US tour last year after my Visa was denied, so I suppose it’s a track I’ve revisited at the points in my life where I’ve needed to let sh*t go.   A few months later I had made it to California to finish the track in Rick Rubin’s studio – Shangri-La. Bringing ‘DETACH’ home put everything into perspective for me, it was 2am and it was just me and the engineer in the studio and the troubles of the past year had paid off." - Willaris. K

Australia’s masters of brutality Thy Art Is Murder have announced the Human Target Australian Tour, set to cause carnage across the country in May 2020. Their first headline run since the release of their earth-scorching fifth record of the same name, The Human Target tour will be a night to remember as Thy Art Is Murder unveil their most ambitious Australian production to date with help from supports Dying Fetus, Fit For An Autopsy, Enterprise Earth and Aversions Crown. Human Target is a bleak experience where Thy Art Is Murder exorcise the pangs of mortality and the pains of socio-political trauma to a soundtrack of authentic crushing death metal with blackened fury and flashes of knuckle-dragging stomp. In its crosshairs are a buffet of human atrocities from privatised prisons enforcing police states where non-violent offenders languish for decades to human organ harvesting for the wealthy. They also examine the false gods of social media while pharmaceuticals numb the minds of the dissociated.  We’re also confronted with the current state of politics riddled with hyperactive virtue signalling, extremism and disenfranchisement. And, while hyperbolic leaders promise to make everything “great” again, our planet lurches toward an inevitable climate disaster that will extinguish humanity. Grim. Since the release of Human Target, Thy Art Is Murder have been on tour non-stop, leaving a trail of sold out shows in their wake. Between bouts of crisscrossing the Northern Hemisphere, the band briefly returned home for a stint on Good Things festival before heading back to Europe. The next stop on their itinerary is a headline run in North America this month with low ticket warnings all round.
