-
Toby of Entrapment (Ex Bitter Lungs)
Sorry in advance, my audio is just fine but Toby is a bit quiet (Nice one pleb) we sat down at Rock City Studios for an impromptu chat about music and a lot of nothing to be honest. That's not entirely true, we talk about new music on the way for the band, how it came about, the next lot of shows...
-
Mikey of Violent Soho
Mikey was kind enough to invite me over to his place for a chat so we'll consider this a live recording. It was a real pleasure talking to someone with such knowledge of the industry and not even realising how long Soho has actually been around. I also had a short Tarot reading which was…

Bridie & Storm of Edentulous
If spooky, obscure and limit pushing artwork and photography is what you like, the Edentulous exhibit is what you're after.

-
Borgy of Bad Habit Records
The latest episode features local caveman and all round family man Borgy from Silicosis and the owner of Bad Habit Records. We talk a lot of nonsense, it was ultimately a catch up for both of us since we know each other outside of the poddy. You should definitely support his record store if…

-
Cat of Nine Lives Media
If you haven't guessed this episode is definitely a guilty pleasure I've wanted to talk about for a while because I think everyone at some point thinks they can take photos for a living, get that perfect shot and have every opportunity thrown at you(myself included), but there is genuinely a lot...

Liam Anthony of Idle Ruin / Bone Marrow
A spontaneous recording due to fire alarms and pure chaos, we catch up with Liam for a second time out in the courtyard of his apartment building and a hell of a lot has changed since last we spoke. Travel plans ditched and bands flamed out but that didn't deter him to keep playing and find his...

Teigan of Being Jane Lane
Mistakes were made, the first ten minutes we started chatting we immediately went off in a tangent and I forgot to hit record as well. Once we got going though it was such a wonderful chat about growing up around the music, the current plans/shows for Being Jane Lane and also how she came about...
-
Evil Eddie of Butterfingers/Spitfireliar and Mike Mike of East Coast Aliens/Sloj/Slurpee Jerks
We were thinking about an hour and a half would be sweet, ended up going an extra hour of shit-talking with a National Tour coming in March, the fingers are well and truly crossed in order for it to go ahead this year as Covid stopped everyone in their tracks. We talk about the craziness of last...

Tom Wooler & Hugh of GigUp
Tom and I met a while back and told me he recently started working with a bloke who was working on a local music app and I just had to find out more about it and why we haven't jumped on this sooner.

Jack Henry of SLUGG / Kaviti / Scumbag / Skirmisher
Jack has been involved in music for a damn long time, it shows with the impressive list of bands he's played for (no doubt I've forgotten a few) This is the kind of normalcy I've grown used to hearing though as being an amazing drummer in Brisbane especially is always in demand. He's also an…

-
Tom Lee Christen and Chloe Garrett (Dreamworm and Harshmellow)
It felt strange recording in my own bedroom, not in a bad way since distance rather than the virus made that happen, probably more so the fact it was my second attempt at a skype recording and normally I record in the studio. Dreamworm has a fascinating story and the lore behind the band is…
more -
Kenny of King Lears Throne
Well hot damn it's good to be back. First episode since the craziness of COVID19 had the owner of King Lears Throne aka King of the shit talk Kenny onboard for a chat and it stayed on track relatively early but as you guessed it we talked a lot of shit. Being someone directly affected by the...

-
Cowboys and Injuries (Live Episode)
I hadn't been to a Thursday night show in a while, of course I picked a rainy night to do so. Absolutely worth it though to catch up with the guys in Cowboys and Injuries, Andy and Nick are such good dudes and I'm a little bummed I couldn't get them in the studio but this is exactly why the live...
-
Garlic Nun (Live Episode)
Sometimes guests can't make it in to the studio because of schedules, life, you name it; that's totally okay in this instance I had the chance to meet up with the Garlic Nun boys for a few beers down the road from The Bearded Lady in West End before their show and full disclaimer, the sound won't...
-
Karl May of Waste Management Productions / The Gastons / Meth Teeth

Gummy & Mapesy of Crooked Face, Goon on the Rocks, Future Primitive
