Before the hangovers from their massive national tour with Dune Rats, Ruby Fields and Dear Seattle have even subsided, TOTTY today announce their own national headline tour alongside news their hotly awaited sophomore EP 'Garden' will be released on the 8th of May through Ratbag Records/BMG.  The Garden tour will take in Sydney, Wollongong, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide this May and June and the band can't wait to hit the road, saying "We’re so excited to have our very own headline tour to show yas the new songs and rock as hard as we can. We've been working on these songs for a long time and we cant wait for you to hear them and sing them with us." Joining them on all shows will be punk-rock duo Debbies who are celebrating the release of their latest single 'Waking Up In LA'. Last year the Wollongong shed-rock three piece lifted the lid on the first single from the EP in 'Lucky' which resonated with radio. It was swiftly added to rotation at triple j and sat in their Top 50 Most Played for a month, ultimately reaching #13. They then completed their own headline tour full of sold out dates, and fronted the camera for an Aus Music Month shoot with General Pants. The second offering came at the end of last month with the release of 'Fairies', a loud and more grungier track showing of their raucous energy. Never ones to shy away from the tour van, TOTTY have played alongside names like SKEGGS, Hockey Dad and Slowly Slowly as well as the festival stages of Falls Festival, Yours & Owls, Fairgrounds, Farmer and the Owl and Grow Your Own ensuring they know how to enthral a crowd - and they will this winter.

At some point in roughly 2004, Adelaide rock band THINKTANK disappeared. Maybe it was a "hiatus"? Perhaps an extended break? Potentially a break-up, but without a final show, no ever really knew. Now , Almost twenty years later...... It's time to revisit where their hearts started, to remember those convictions still held, and to stand right beside you singing. One last time. SERAPHS COAL - The resurrection is over but don't be sad. Seraphs are saying thankyou to all the people who made the shows so special by doing one final show. They will be headlining the night and to help celebrate they've just released a new (old) record. "OUT OF TIME" is a collection of songs written in the mid to late 90's, freshened up and recorded at Ghost Note Studios in January 2020. ANTISKEPTIC - It’s been over ten years since the original lineup of rock band Antiskeptic finished up after a ten year career that spanned a massive 1000 shows worldwide. So, it is with HUGE excitement that we can announce the return of this much loved trio to Adelaide, one of their most requested cities to visit. With a newfound fire and passion burning brighter than ever, this is not just a reunion - ANTISKEPTIC ARE BACK. S.T.R -These guys need no introduction. One of Adelaide's hardest working pop punk bands threw in the towel around 2005 and promised to never play again. We were told over and over a sold out reunion in 2011 was "more than enough" & "you're a glutton for punishment", but here we are. We also hear from the grapevine there might be a vinyl of "When Words Fail" released for the show. This massive night will be opened up by no other than Adelaide's MOVE TO STRIKE, also reforming for one more goodbye. Friday May 29, The Gov - Adelaide - Doors 7pm ONE SHOW ONLY. 50 Minute Sets from all 4 headliners. Bands from 720pm. Tickets on sale 9am (SA Time) March 12th from www.chopdogentertainment.com.au and www.oztix.com.au. Set your alarm, because these will not last long.

For the first time in its illustrious 15 year history, game-changing house and techno party Kaluki is to host its own Ibiza residency. Every Friday from 3rd July - 25th September, the colourful crew will call Octan's intimate basement home, and promise to fill it with cutting edge DJs and real music lovers from all over the world.  Kaluki started out 15 years ago as a weekly party in Manchester at the celebrated Sankeys club. In the time since, the brand has gone on to establish itself on the world stage with sell out shows across the huge events such as Blue Marlin Ibiza, The BPM Festival, The Warehouse Project and Parklife in the UK, and clubs like Privilege Ibiza and Blue Marlin in the UAE as well as numerous tours of North & South America. Octan is the site of former club Sankeys Ibiza so this is, of sorts, a return to the spiritual home of Kaluki which adds another layer of intrigue. The club itself has fantastic, specially commissioned artwork all outside and inside the club, as well as a world class sound system designed to deliver the music in crystal clear clarity. It is sleek and futuristic in its styling and is one of the most talked about new spaces on the White Isle.  Get first access to the line ups ahead of tickets going on sale and win a weekend in Ibiza for the Kaluki opening party!

Kaluki Announces First Ever Weekly Ibiza Residency at Octan

"“Cynical Serene” is typically, wondrously PEARS. It’s 139 seconds of punk fury with a vocal breakdown seemingly recorded in scenic Laurel Canyon, California, enhanced by bongloads of righteous boo. And while you may be familiar with the band’s brevity and velocity, you’re going to wonder what happened at the end of the song. (Spoiler alert: That’s where the “serenity” comes in.)."  -ALTERNATIVE PRESS   “PEARS high energy tracks have stemmed from their deeply seeded punk roots that have defined a resurgence for their musical scene with their own brand of hardcore-punk.” - HYSTERIA MAGAZINE  Some of history’s best punk bands came and went before they had a chance to get comfortable (and boring), so it’s not surprising that PEARS frontman Zach Quinn had doubts when it came time to record the band’s third full-length. While PEARS have only existed since 2014, maybe a couple LPs and hundreds of explosive live shows were enough? “I was perfectly prepared to have my Blue Album already,” Quinn says, laughing. “That whole fucking cliché of ‘Our best record’s behind us.’ With the release of PEARS on Fat Wreck Chords), Quinn says, “Maybe not!” But there’s no maybe about it. PEARS is a significant step forward for a band that has grown by leaps and bounds on each album. Recorded with Chris Fogal (The Gamits) at Black in Bluhm Studio in Denver, PEARS is 14 songs and 31 minutes of the band’s signature hardcore: heavy, melodic, blistering, pointed, and surprisingly catchy. While it continues down the path set by Green Starand 2015’s Go to Prison, PEARS finds the band taking a different creative approach. “The last PEARS record, almost every detail was worked out before we ever stepped foot into the studio,” Quinn explains. “This record, we went in with skeletons of songs and put things together on the fly. ” “We never could afford the studio time to be in there 24/7,” adds guitarist/vocalist Brian Pretus. “A couple of songs ended up being stuff that we wrote on the spot.” Those include “Naptime,” which moves from loping pop to group-chant hardcore in the space of two minutes, and penultimate track “Traveling Time,” which Pretus describes as a “palate cleanser.” Basically, a mid-tempo pop song, “Traveling Time” began as a Quinn solo track but found its way onto PEARS thanks to the band’s more open studio approach.  “Collectively, we figured we’ve danced around pop music our entire career so far,” Quinn says, “but we were like, ‘Let’s just do a full-on fucking pop tune. Why not?” “Full on” is a good descriptor for PEARS in general. The album opens with feedback at the beginning of the riff-heavy “Killing Me” and closes when the even riff-heavier “Cynical Serene” (whose opening plays like Nirvana by way of Hum). In between are 12 songs that shake with can’t-sit-still energy, as the band—rounded out by the ace rhythm section of bassist Erich Goodyear and drummer Jarret Nathan—shifts on a dime between parts and sounds. Elements of prog and grunge intermingle with classic hardcore and hook-laden rock—and it can happen in the space of one song. (In this case, “Worm.”) Atop all of it are Quinn’s voice and words, which took a different approach as well on this album. “I thought that I was going to continue the absurdist poetry thing that started with Go to Prison and amplified on Green Star,” he says. Describing Green Star as “The Iliad with shit and cum,” Quinn notes that this time, “The songs are about shit.” Not shit in the “shit and cum” sense. Quinn writes directly about getting older (“Traveling Time”), moving past anger (“Nervous”), and the prospect of never having a family (“Daughter”), among other topics, all with the wit and candor PEARS fans have come to expect from the explosive frontman.  “It makes perfect sense that this is the third act, but it's not what I would have predicted it to be,” Quinn says. “I wouldn’t have guessed that the album would end on a bittersweet note. It’s more uplifting than either record that we’ve done, but it’s not a happy record.” It’s a great record regardless. PEARS will take it on the road extensively in the coming year, with tours in the U.S., Europe, Australia, Japan, and South America.

The final names for Outlook Origins 2020 can now be revealed for the exciting new chapter which unfolds in the stunning Garden Resort in Tisno from July 30th to August 3rd 2020. Drum & bass icons Chase & Status and Children of Zeus are added to the opening concert, Novelist, Silkie, Coki, Goth Trad, Conducta and Sgt Pokes all line up at the main event, while 1xtra's Jamz Supernova joins the bill and Pinch's Tectonic and Rinse FM also get involved for their own impressive takeovers amongst many more big announcements. Origins is all about curating cutting edge music for the real heads. It’s a more intimate version of the storied Outlook Festival, but at the same time, stays true to its roots with a big focus on sound system culture, beach parties, boat parties, after parties and more. Full news of the boat parties are to come with the final Early Bird ticket online, including the festival’s popular 5 for 4 group ticket offer (£96 per person). The line-up for this mouth-watering event has been pulled together by 13 expert curators, and each has done a fine job of representing the various cornerstones of their own scenes. These are Calibre, D Double E, DJ Storm, Flava D, Fliptrix, Goldie, Iration Steppas, Lenzman, Mala, Mungo's Hifi, The Bug, Zed Bias and Hybrid Minds, and they have already announced huge names like  dBridge, Fabio & Grooverider, Randall, Wookie, Youngsta, Hatcha, Breakage, Doc Scott, DRS, J.Sparrow, P. Money, 6 Figure Gang (aka Dobby, FAUZIA, Jossy Mitsu,  LCY, Sherelle, Yazzus), Children of Zeus, Coops, Darwin, Horsepower Productions, Jah Shaka, N-Type and many more.  Drum & bass legends Chase & Status join the opening concert in Sibenik alongside Shy FX, Dynamite MC and Manchester duo Children Of Zeus. Spaces are limited for the unique event that kicks off the festival on Thursday 30th July - an unmissable, well-loved part of the Outlook Festival model. On Mala’s curated stage in attendance are Silkie, Coki, Goth Trad, Sicaria Sound with Killa P, Crazy D & Sun of Selah on the mic all bringing the signature sound back to Croatia with plenty of hard hitting and deep bass styles. Further high profile stage takeovers have been added and include Pinch's Tectonic label celebrating 15 years (with Walton being a late and great addition ahead of his new release on the label) and Rinse FM who join forces with 6 Figure Gang for a takeover of their own that is sure to get rowdy. Elsewhere excitement is building for Deadbeat + Tikiman who will present a special live dub show, while New Zealand duo Truth return for big things in 2020. The Heatwave add some of their own much loved and hugely characteristic bounce and 1xtra's Jamz Supernova joins the bill, while there will be more drum & bass from Technimatic, SCAR, Artificial Intelligence and J Majik. A key part of this year's event will be the Barbarella's After Parties, which are available via a separate ticket on sale now as individual days, as well as part of a festival package deal and full pass. Each of these special events is powered by the peerless Sinai Sound System and will feature the likes of Dispatch and Sofa Sound going head to head for a takeover. Mala curates a heavyweight offering featuring Deep Medi family including local Egoless as well as Silkie, Sicaria Sound and a b2b from Coki and Mala, then The Bug curates his own late night get together as well as Leeds legend and dub warrior Iration Steppas.  This is an exciting evolution in the story of Outlook and is once again set to be the most essential festival for lovers of any and all forms of bass.  Website & Tickets: http://www.outlookfestival.com FULL A-Z:  207 • Abnormal Sleepz • Ant TC1 • Artificial Intelligence • Black Barrel • Black Josh • Blackeye MC • Blazin • Breakage • Breakfake • Buer • Channel One • Charlie P • Children of Zeus • Coki • Conducta • Coops • Crazy D • Danny T & Tradesman • Darwin • dBridge • Deadbeat + Tikiman • Digital • Digitron • DJ Flight • DLR • Dobby • Doc Scott • Dred • DRS • Dub Head • Dubdiggerz • Dubkasm • Dubolik & Lo Peaks • Egoless • El-B • Ellie Prohan • Fabio & Grooverider • FAUZIA • FD • Fiend • Finwa • Flowdan • Foamplate • Fox • Goth-Trad • Gusto • Hatcha • Highlander • Horsepower Productions • Ila Brugal • J Majik • J:Kenzo • J.Sparrow • Jah Shaka • Jamz Supernova • Jeremy Sylvester • John B • Jossy Mitsu • Jubilee • Kahn • Kid Drama • Killa P • Kryo • LCY • Lee Scott • Loefah • Lush  • Macky Banton • Mantra • Marcus Visionary •  MC Codebreaker • MC GQ • MC Lowqui • MC Moose • MC Pean • MC Tempza • MC Vapour • Mind of A Dragon • Miss Red • Mr K • N-Type • Novelist • O.B.F • One87 • P Money • Parly B • Perception • Pinch • Ramsez • Randall • Reggae Take Over • Roots In Session • RSD • Sammy Virji • Satl • SCAR • Scratchclart & Lady Lykez • Sgt Pokes • Sharda • SHERELLE • Shosh • Sicaria Sound • Silkie • Sinai Sound •  Siskiyou • Solo Banton • SP:MC • Sr Wilson • Stalawa • Submotive • Sun of Selah •  Surreal • Technimatic • Ternion Sound • The Heatwave • Truemendous • Truth • Vital •Techniques • Vixen Sound • Walton • Wookie • Yazzus • Youngsta Location: The Garden Resort, Tisno, Croatia Date: 30th July - 3rd August, 2020 Website | Tickets

Ladies & Gentleman, this is democracy manifest... What's the charge? The Chats have released yet another unforgettable video for their latest track, Dine N Dash, the fifth single taken from The Chats' debut album High Risk Behaviour, out March 27. In true Chats fashion, Dine N Dash is fierce, funny, sweaty and sub-two-minutes. The video, directed by Matt Weston, finds The Chats in an unfamiliar environment, eating a meal, a succulent steakhouse meal, while embracing the piss poor status of their wallets and outright brazenness to get a decent feed.  *DISCLAIMER: The Chats DO NOT condone the old Dine N Dash, they just like it.* "We filmed at Walters steakhouse in Brisbane.

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

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?

Love Police are incredibly excited to announce the triumphant return of G. Love to Australian shores in 2020, freshly celebrating the release of his stellar new record, The Juice, with a sweet solo tour.  Co-produced and co-written with four time Grammy award-winner Keb’ Mo’, the electrifying new album also features a slew of special guests including Robert Randolph, Marcus King and Roosevelt Collier.

The result is electrifying in both its musical and lyrical content — “a fun record that’s not overly groovy, and a serious record that isn’t depressing,” writes Glide Magazine, referencing the record’s balance between the personal and the political. G. Love has also released several animated videos for featured tracks including “Go Crazy”, “SoulBQue” and “Shake Your Hair”. For more insight, view the recent Billboard Feature. G.

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

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!
