| World's End Press - Second Day Uptown Pop, Dance | 01/05/2012 |
Lead by John Parkinson on vocals, powered by the elastic funk of Sashi Dharann on bass, the beats of Tom Gould on drums, the kaleidoscopic sounds of Rhys Richards’ keys.
In the words of singer/ guitarist John Parkinson, Second Day Uptown is about ‘living in the city, assimilating and forgetting who you used to be’.
| Mick Thomas - Gallipoli Rosemary Folk, Country | 17/04/2012 |
Boasting an ear for warmly-weathered folk and a knack for nailing the minutiae of Australian life without resorting to clichés, Mick Thomas' potent reflections have revealed quiet revelations for decades.
A Rosemary bush called the Gallipoli Rosemary came back from Gallipoli with a friend's great-grandfather. The last thing he did when he left the battlefield was rip it from the ground. It’s about what connects you to the past and generations of cuttings and of men.

| Kasey Chambers - Luka Country, Alternative Country, Pop | 17/08/2011 |
One of Australia’s most beloved singer-songwriters, Kasey Chambers may have won countless awards but she seems so down to earth most Australians feel like they know her.
Suzanne Vega’s ‘Luka’ is the first single from ‘Storybook’ and has been a personal favourite of Kasey’s since she first heard it on release in 1987.
This is a pop classic reworked to Kasey's own alt-country styling. It's a soft-sounding beautiful song with a hard-hitting theme.
