  • Sinopses Ouvir
    OUVIR sugestões GIRL POWER PARTE 1: 5 NOMES INTERNACIONAIS PARA SEGUIR DE PERTO Aproveitando a boleia do Dia Internacional da Mulher, apresentamos 5 artistas fundamentais da música moderna para seguir com atenção redobrada. Grrrl power! COURTNEY BARNETT Letras afiadas, cordas de guitarra que arranham, uma voz que transforma o canto numa animada conversa de bar com sotaque e humor australianos. Nascida em Sydney no ano de 1987, Courtney Barnett lançou o seu primeiro longa-duração em 2005, com um título que merecia ser impresso numa T-Shirt dada a pensamentos filosóficos: «Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit». Kierkegaard, rói-te de inveja. OUVIR NO SPOTIFY ALDOUS HARDING Assina no BI neo-zelandês como Hannah Harding, mas é como Aldous Harding que tem tratado de servir uma indie folk habitada por fantasmas com espírito gótico. Após desistir do sonho de se tornar veterinária, Aldous começou a cantar e a compor canções com a amiga - e também cantora - Nadia Reid, fez segundas vozes para os the Eastern e, em 2012, ganhou coragem e pediu a Marlon Williams – que se viria a tornar seu namorado e com quem, depois do fim, cantaria numa canção sobre a separação de ambos - e Ben Edwards para darem uma mãozinha na produção do seu primeiro e homónimo disco, onde mostrou que tem voz para inventar personagens que tanto choram com voz fininha, como metem um medo danado com a sua voz grossa. OUVIR NO SPOTIFY WEYES BLOOD Natalie Mering adotou o pseudónimo musical de Weyes Blood e, do experimentalismo e ruído iniciais, foi caminhando para territórios mais tradicionais, onde tem dado cartas na dream folk com um ligeiro travo a soft-rock.

  • Stella Donnelly Shares “Tricks” Watch the Video HERE ​
    February 27, 2019 For Immediate Release Stella Donnelly Shares “Tricks” Watch the Video HERE ​ Beware of the Dogs Out Next Friday On Secretly Canadian ​ “It's the kind of easy-going, open-hearted spirit that makes [Stella Donnelly] one of the most affable live performers you'll see. While there's no doubting her sincerity, she's also got a disarming way of making her often dark and brutal songs a little easier to take in.” - NPR Music ​ “Here is the #MeToo movement in action, simultaneously methodical and melodic.” - The New York Times ​ “a jarring storyteller with a beautiful voice.” - Billboard ​ “Donnelly masterfully treads the line between dreamy and acerbic.” - The FADER ​ “A slice of sighing, sparkling indie-pop with an easygoing vibe that belies a vicious bite.” - Stereogum ​ Australian singer/songwriter Stella Donnelly shares a new single, “Tricks” off of her ​ ​ ​ ​ forthcoming debut album Beware of the Dogs, out March 8th via Secretly Canadian. ​ ​ ​ ​ Following previously released songs, “Lunch” and “Old Man,” “Tricks” is a deceptively ​ ​ ​ ​ catchy jab at racist Australian pride and the absurdity of the music industry. The accompanying video was directed by Nick McKk and fellow Australian musician Julia Jacklin ​ ​ ​ and shot in Melbourne. “This song is a playful zoom-in on the ‘Australian Identity’ and a loose ​ dig at the morons that used to yell sh*t at me when I played cover gigs on Sunday afternoons. It probably served me right for singing ‘Wonderwall’ every weekend.” ​ Donnelly’s charisma shines on Beware of the Dogs as she explores her career, her country, her ​ ​ family, and her relationships with a razor-sharp wit and emotional authenticity.

VICKI GORDON We’re proud that Queensland is the inaugural home to this phenomenal program. The Queensland Government is committed to promoting the work of women in all fields, including the arts, and positions of leadership. We have pledged to appoint 50 per cent women to government boards by 2020, because we know that companies This evening we will make Australian music history. that appoint more women do better. The inaugural Australian Women in Music Awards is the result of many Australian women contribute a great deal to the country’s contemporary music industry, and yet only one in five voices and many visions coming together, all of whom refuse to allow registered songwriters and composers in our nation are women. Women also represent almost half of all Australians women’s contribution in the Australian Music Industry to be sidelined with a music qualification, and yet hold only one in four senior roles in our key music industry organisations.

    Pru Montin at Screen SongsHubs LA Nick Cave and Warren Ellis Photo: Courtney McAllister Photo: Daniel Boud Rochelle Pitt at Share the Spirit Photo: Jacinta Keefe 2019 - 2020 YEAR IN REVIEW Kimbra Photo: Nick Demarais 1 Message from the Chief Executive, Dean Ormston Bujari gamarruwa and kia ora I’d like to begin my message by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which I am writing from today, the Gadigal people of the Eora nation and pay my respects to Elders past and present. This financial year will be remembered by all of us for natural disasters including catastrophic bushfires and floods across Australia, a volcanic eruption in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, and now COVID-19. The pain and suffering experienced by so many of our members and licensees over the past 12 months has been far-reaching and terrible. Musicians and the music industry are always amongst the first to lend a hand to support, lift spirits and raise funds to rebuild community. The COVID-19 context has turned the tables and musicians have needed to put a call out for the support of governments and others. Individual and collective resilience has been tested. We’ve all had to cope with dramatic and unpredictable disruption and change. We’ve had to adapt quickly. Our priority over the past 12 months has been to support both our 108,000+ members and 114,000+ licensees. As the bushfires devastated enormous areas of Australia, and then COVID-19 spread across the globe, we moved quickly to provide direct support and advocate to government the plight of those that live and work in the original gig economy.

  • Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever Releases New Single
    February 10, 2020 For Immediate Release ROLLING BLACKOUTS COASTAL FEVER RELEASES NEW SINGLE/VIDEO, “CARS IN SPACE” (photo by Peter Ryle) Melbourne-based band Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever releases a new single, “Cars ​ ​ ​ In Space,” and an accompanying video. “Cars In Space” is “the swirling words and ​ ​ thoughts before a breakup,” says Fran Keaney. It’s bold and classic, and propelled by ​ ​ ​ the band’s singular chemistry. Its accompanying video, directed by Nick Mckk and ​ ​ Julia Jacklin, is set in broad daylight at an old-school Australian drive-in. ​ WATCH THE VIDEO FOR “CARS IN SPACE” https://smarturl.it/carsinspace “Cars In Space” is the first taste of new music from Rolling Blackouts C.F. since their “In The Capital” / “Read My Mind” 7”, and its predecessor, 2018’s Hope Downs, “a ​ ​ ​ debut album that applies their infectious brand of motorik jangle rock to lovelorn ruminations and geopolitical laments” (Pitchfork). Hope Downs was released to an ​ ​ ​ ​ incredible reception, earning year-end praise from Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, ​ Stereogum, Paste, and more. Meanwhile, the band’s renowned live show led to ​ selling-out their mammoth Hope Downs Australian tour, as well as sold-out performances in London, San Diego, San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, Toronto, Vancouver, Philadelphia, New York City and more. The huge touring schedule also included shows at the world’s biggest music festivals, from Coachella, The Great Escape, Primavera, and Shaky Knees to Lowlands, Pukklepop, Green Man and Splendour in the Grass. Rolling Blackout Coastal Fever Tour Dates: Fri. Feb. 14 - Perth, AU @ Perth Festival Sun. March 1 - Brisbane, AU @ Nine Lives Festival Sat.
