Episode 54: My Friend Joel Martorana (Endless Heights)

Ever since Joel Martorana was a kid, he's had the music in him - he spent formative years singing in the choir and as part of an opera troupe. That was never going to be where he wound up, however - as the frontman for Endless Heights, he's channelled all of his passion and emotion into one of the most consistently-engaging and energetic live bands in Australia. It's lead them to shows with artists like Refused and Title Fight, as well as packed-out headlining shows in support of all of their top-notch releases - including last year's Teach You How To Leave. Recorded at the launch of said EP at Rad Bar in Wollongong, Martorana joins the dots between opera, hardcore and the future of his ever-evolving band.Teach You How To Leave is out now.
