NEW MUSIC: The Tambourine Girls – The Tambourine Girl

The Tambourine Girls feature 3 ex-members of Sydney band Deep Sea Arcade who are now forging their own winding path through the outer reaches of garage-pop and psychedelia. They’ve just released the catchy and near-eponymous new single ‘The Tambourine Girl’, with the clip below. Recorded with producer Tim Whitten (Powderfinger, The Go-Betweens, Hoodoo Gurus), the song itself is captivating, evocative in its execution encompassing the mythology … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: The Tambourine Girls – The Tambourine Girl

NEWS: Gold Class Announce Tour And Preview Stream Debut Album

Gold Class came out of nowhere for me with their recent single ‘Life As A Gun’. Possessing a perfectly disaffected post-punk holler and tightly-wound dynamics it set the scene for a new promising act on the local Australian scene to right the balance and provide an antidote to the indie electro soul and generic radio-friendly indie pop and rock that has been polluting the airwaves … Continue reading NEWS: Gold Class Announce Tour And Preview Stream Debut Album
